Happy Father's Day!!


Happy Father's Day to all!! Tonight Marcus and I are going to his parents house to have a BBQ. Steaks, potatoes, corn on the cob, good company, and some relaxation!! My parents are in Boston again so I guess we will have a second Father's day later this week. Fine with me! I love a good BBQ night!
This past week has been crazy! We have been working a lot and haven't gotten a lot done with the wedding but the end of the month will be busy with wedding things. Next week I am going with Marcus' mom to get some things from the fabric store and also to get the rehearsal dinner planned and ready. The week after I have my first dress fitting. Between now and then, I will need to get the "under garments" and shoes that I will be wearing so I will have exact measurements and alterations for the wedding. After that, starts July!! I have my Bridal Shower that month...I am soooo excited. Heidi is doing a fantastic job with the planning of this. I am so very happy I have her in my life. She is amazing! We also have to get the invitations ready to be mailed. That will be a job in itself! We still have a lot to do but the wedding will be here before we know it! Then what will I blog about?!
Well...until next time! :)

WOW...long time no post!!

Sorry guys! We have been pretty busy lately so I haven't had much time to "blog" about us!! So here goes!
Marcus and I have went to a couple of cake tastings. Marcus had a blast and so did I! We are deciding to go with Lily Lane Cakes. She is amazing! If you have seen "Ace of Cakes", then you will know what type of cake decorator she is. We found out about her through a resident at my work who went with her and loved her!! Check her out!! http://www.lilylanecakes.com/

So after our cake tasting we had our engagement photos done. It was a lot of fun!! We ended up going to Occoquan and we're able to have some pictures by a beautiful Cherry Blossom tree. Here are a couple...


So tell me what you think!!

About a week or so after the pictures we had our tasting at the Marriott! OH MAN!! That was the best part of all the wedding planning! They had the room all nice for us with tables set up and the food was amazing! We tried 2 salads, steak with salmon, chicken, and 2 desserts! :) Mom and Dad went with us as well...they loved it too!! We ended up picking the food that night but I will not ruin that surprise!! Just know it will be so good!! (so good, so good)

After that we took about a month off...I needed a break from everything!! We did the little things like get the invites, more shower planning, get appointments for dress fittings and so on. We did get to go to Indiana for our friend Jami and Rick's wedding. It was a lot of fun. It was good to see everyone too!! I will have the pictures up from that soon.

So a little over 80 days left until the wedding...

Until next time!!
