The Count Down is on


Last night I went into town to continue my search for envelopes that weren't going to cost more then the invitations themselves. We looked at Staples, too expensive, then we looked at Sam Club, nope have to order them and they could take ten days and we just don't have that. Then we went to our beloved Walmart hoping that they wouldn't let us down. And low and behold they had the lowest prices yet again. It was 6.47 for every 50. now we needed about three hundred and we realized that it would still be kind of costly but we need some envelopes that I could start addressing, so we bought 2 packs and headed home. When we got home we went on ebay and found envelopes in a hundred pack for 4 dollars and so we immediately ordered 2 packs and we figure by the time I address the first hundred, stuff them, seal them, and buy and put stamps on them I will have the next 200 to do. So the envelopes are another one knocked out, and our bigger problem . . . the dress.
So this morning I got up and looked up all the dress shops within a two hour drive and began my list of calls. At a store only an hour away, a lady said that they think they might be able to help me. now they didn't have the dress I wanted
with sleeves and everything but they told me they think they can alter a dress to put sleeves on it and have it to me by the wedding. But we have another problem, I need to have the dress ASAP so that I can send it to california, so that my bridesmaid can have the dress altered to fit her body shape. Still the dress hangs over us but we are getting closer to finding a solution.
And now the count down is on, 29 days till the wedding and even less till I travel down to California. The Idaho reception has nothing set in stone except we have the building reserved. We still need to buy a cake topper, and the cake cutter and figure out the table clothes. Can we do it? I sure hope so

To Move or not to Move is the Question

Image
So Correy and I have been looking more and more into moving and have finally decided that it is going to happen. It is just a matter of when and where. When have really been looking into two different areas, Rock Springs, Wyoming and St George, Utah. When we were first discussing where we would want to move I was leaning towards Wyoming, and now the more research that I do, I think that I really want to move to St George. In St George, Correy would be able to continue doing HVAC work and could still possibly open his own branch of High Tech Comfort in a few years. Also, there are more housing options, in our price range, that we could bring our puppies. We are hoping to rent a two bedroom house, that has a yard for the dogs. I have seen a few that I like a lot. We really want a two bedroom because if we have family come and visit we would like to be able to accommodate them instead of having them stay in a hotel. Also I think it would be nice to make it into a office too. Because we no...

We Are Pregnant!!!!

Image
After being married for a year and going through life's many ups and down we are finally able to announce that we are pregnant. We are due December 17th, so its an early Christmas present to us. So far we have been to two doctors appointments and had two ultrasounds. The baby is doing great with a strong heartbeat. I have been lucky enough not to have morning sickness, the only symptom I have had hasjust been exhaustion and the aches and pains that come with pregnancy. I know it only looks like a blob, but you can see some limb buds and the head in some of them. We cant wait for our next appointment, June 3rd, when the baby will look soo much more like a baby, and I will be at the end of my first trimester. Her is a pic of me the first day we found out. And as for our Baby Bottle (the coke bottle bank we got on our honeymoon) we counted it a few days after finding out and we nearly had 160 dollars, we figure by the time I am in my third trimester we will have enough for th...

Nursery Under Construction

Image
When I got home from California, the nursery was textured and ready for paint. On Friday after work, Correy primered the room so that it was all ready for paint. Saturday we had to go into town to get white paint for the ceiling and closet, and we got a paint that went on pink and dried white so that we would make sure that we weren't missing any spots. It was really cool but the pink doesn't really show up in pictures. But if you look close you may be able to tell that it has a pink tint to it. On Sunday, when we got home from Church we painted the nursery and I love the way that it turned out. Afterwards I was exhausted so I laid down and took a nap, while Correy helped his parents move furniture and when I woke up he was just moving the last bit of furniture. He decided he wasn't tired and was feeling rather productive so he swept the Nursery and started to lay down carpet, as he was getting to the end and just needed to to the closet I started vacuuming and by the time ...
