In our lives


For those of you who heard about Skybus and their recent decision to file bankruptcy, and now for those of you whom I just told, fiance and I had tickets to fly home with their airline. Yeah, that feeling in the pit of your stomach that you're feeling after hearing the news, I know what it's like, multiplied by about a hundred. At first actually, I felt rather confident that, though we may spend a little more, we would certainly find another flight. After my search started into the third hour that feeling had long since faded. I'll spare you the agony since this bump in the road passed two days ago, and share with you that we did in fact find a decent priced flight and the newly weds will be returning home without having to hitch-hike.

In more recent news, as I'm sure you noticed, the wedding invitations have been mailed! Now it's your turn. :) We're excitedly waiting to hear from you :)

This past Saturday we attended our first wedding shower. It was so nice. I enjoyed meeting a lot of fiance's family and friends of family that have been a part of his life for many years. We received lots of nice gifts and the refreshments and preparations were lovely!
Our next shower is this Saturday with my side of the family and we're looking forward to it as well!

Our planning these days has dwindled down to the simpler things such as attaining the marriage license, paying remaining balances, and making sure that all attendants are prepared for the big day.

The next BIG thing on the calendar will be our move. We look forward to bringing all of our things together and making a home of our own.

Be on the look out for details in all that we have going on in the upcoming weeks! Love you all!
