Plans

This weekend Rick and I have MANY plans on our WEDDING TO DO LIST!!!

1. Send out the Save The Dates (YES, we still haven't)
2. Purchase Flower Girl dresses
3. Go to CVS and print pictures for my room :)
4. Take Bridesmaid shoes out to my sisters & get paid
5. Go to the bank
6. Go to the camera store
7. Cut Rick's hair
8. Wedding items/ gift research online
9. Work on some DIY Wedding Projects
10. Spend quality time doing something Ricky wants to do. ;)

Hopefully we'll at least get the Save The Dates in the mail TODAY - considering there are less than 6 months until our wedding & before we know if the invitations are going to be going out in the mail.

On that note --- it is 1:45pm & I still haven't gotten out of my PJ's!
I'll update you all at the end of the weekend on our progress on the WEDDING TO DO LIST.

Congrats!

Congratulations to my little brother Andrew & his NOW fiance' Jerrica!

THEIR ENGAGED & it's sucha cute LOVE story.
He proposed to her on the beach in a drawing contest... she walked away drew her, he drew his, she came over and wha-la his drawing, "Will You Marry Me?"
ADORABLE!

I wanna hear your proposal story. ♥

Asking our Pastor

Today we decided to ask out pastor to marry us.

Talk about a journey... how do you ask a pastor to marry you?
Well, first we wrote an e-mail to our pastor and explained why we waited this long since we've been engaged since April 2008. Then we told our pastor we were going to have my fiances uncle marry us. And now we're asking our pastor.

Here is the letter we typed as a JOKE...

"Dear Pastor:

We don't know how to ask you but will you marry us?
Our wedding date is August 22, of this year.
How much?
See you there.
Rick and Erica"

...A JOKE because we don't really know what to say... it would be interesting to hear what you all said when you asked your pastor or person to marry you and your fiance.

Proceeding Wedding Bells...

................MY HAIR IS GOING TO LOOK LIKE THIS!

And a bonus would be Kate's tan & hopefully pilates will pay off & my tummy could look a little bit more like hers too! ;)

Non-Wedding Related...

It can't ALWAYS be about wedding stuff!

So while I'm on lunch at work I stumbled upon this...

First Timer

I'm excited to say this is my first post.

I have had this blog for awhile now but haven't found time to put thoughts, photos & ideas up. & not to mention i'm not so sure I know how to. Bare with me...

So... TODAY there are 250 days remaining until our wedding day (August 22, 2009)! It seems like that is going to take forever but I could trick myself and say there is 8 months and 7 days (but to me that sounds longer) OR 35.71 weeks remaining... that makes it sounds like less, right? (How do you have 0.71 of a week?) I suppose if days were hours then I could complain. 6,000 +/- hours, ehhh. Any way you do the math; I am thrilled everyday to know i'm going to marrying Richard William...

Because of these little wedding things...
- He actually cares what the bridesmaid dresses look like
(their really cute - can't wait to post pictures)
- He likes making the save the dates (their STILL not finished, but I could post a pic soon)
- For awhile he was more into it than me & made appointments with our DJ & photographer
- He really wants to be involved in ALL the planning (It's amazing!)

There is so much more I want to post. I will post photos soon.
And as I said before, bare with me.
