More wedding planning

Well, over here we are in wedding planning mode with about 5 months to the big day there are a lot of things to do. Yesterday, my Mom and I met with the flower people. It was a good meeting and a lot of little choices to be made. I think we made good strides and have many more strides to go, but it was a good first meeting. I enjoyed it because the person talking with us had his computer wired to his TV so we could see what the pictures he was showing us of different flower ideas looked like. Also, I picked out a videographer which was great and just need to get that deposit in. So, I think we are down to the smaller choices now. Also, B and I are meeting with the minister that will marry us next week. I am excited about that!

wedding planning

Well, the wedding planning is back in full swing. Last week, we went and looked at invitations, and got save-the-date ideas. Also, we are looking at wedding books, videographers, and flowers. We are down to small decisions, and also I have worked on registering for the wedding. It is a work in progress, but coming along. We also have looked into the food and cake part. Also, my maid of honor texted me saying that she had a destination for the bachelorette party. I am looking forward to all of this and trying to not stress out too much.

Terps deb ball 2012

This past weekend was the Terps deb ball, which was the last ball of the season presenting the girls for their final bow. I went because it happened to fall on my brother, Bill's 29th birthday. So, I went with my parents. B was out of town for the weekend and was unable to go :( But, I did have a good time. I enjoyed catching up with friends that I have not talked to in a while. The decorations were a really cool. They were simple and well stated. The theme was an Asian theme which was really cool. They had large fans around the room and around the entrance to the room. The stage was really cool. They had banners up around the stage with each girls name on it which I am guessing would be a gift for them. Then, during the presentation, which was a little late in starting the stage was set up so that the walls would open up when the girls came out to do their bows. It was really cool to see that. Then, I went on to the first after party for a little bit. They had another band there and the room was a little dark to where your eyes had to adjust. They had a fun crab racing game where you had robot crabs that you could race. I raced my Mom and she won! Then, after talking with a few more friends it was time to head home. All and all it was a fun night.

A busy new year

Well, this year is starting out to be very very busy. Which will be good. I am starting grad school in a couple of weeks, and starting to get more wedding stuff done, because in 5 months the wedding will be here! Also, working part time for my Dad's company with their social media stuff. I am meeting on Friday with their PR person to work on a calendar on when to post blogs and ideas etc. I think it will be great. Also, I am still substitute teaching as well. I am hoping to have a few jobs lined up here and there. So, here is off to a busy but fun 2012. I can not believe that B and I will be married in 5 months, time is flying by!

Happy 2012

2012 has gotten off to a great start. I got into grad school and will be taking one class starting in January. This will be an exciting start to the new year. Also, B and I will be getting married in June, which will be here before we know it. So, from January until June will be very busy around here with wedding planning in full force, grad school class into the mix, wedding parties and weddings for friends. All and all I think it is going to be an amazing year.

Baylor bowl game post

Kristina and I went to the Alamo Bowl game. It was the chance of a lifetime. We started out driving on I-35. On our way down we almost had an 18 wheeler hit us, so our car swerved going 70 miles an hour. It was very scary. The car swerved then went in a ditch on the side of the road then back on the highway spinning in a 180 and back on the side of the road. Somehow we finally stopped. Kristina did an amazing job navigating all of that. We almost had the car flip but thankfully it did not. Then when we got out we saw at least 5 cars pulled over to see if we were ok. One person said they thought that we were going to be in a fatal accident. It shook us all up but we got back in the car and kept going. We stopped outside of Waco to have someone look at the car to see if it was ok. The car was ok but would need to be taken in when we got back from the trip. So that was the exciting news. Luckily the rest of the trip was not as eventful.

We got to San Antonio and checked into the hotel room. Then we took a bus that dropped us off at the front of the stadium. The game was amazing! Just being there was so much fun. I think that there were mostly Baylor fans at the game. The fist quarter baylor started out great. Second quarter was not that great. When we got to the second half of the game it really picked up and at the end looked like a basketball score instead of a football score.

The next day we woke up and headed to the outlet malls to do some shopping on our way back. We took our time to get back and there was a lot of traffic too. Lots of accidents that backed up traffic. Then when we got to kristina's house we Wenatchee dinner and I went home.
All and all I had an amazing time.
