Here's my weekly update on the wedding. Over the last week or so, we really got down to business with wedding planning. Bob and I are still waiting on his passport to come in the mail, and the rings are ordered! We also picked out most of our songs, so now we just need to put them together into a playlist and figure out if we are going to have a DJ, band or just hook up an iPod. We designed our cake as well, and will be handing that over to Ryan soon. We also got most of our invites addressed, and we are ready to send those out. We are trying to get addresses for Bob's family though, so we are a little behind on getting those invites sent out. This week we will hopefully get those invites addressed and sent, as well as we will apply for our marriage license, and we will get the tuxes done. This weekend Bob's family is all going to come and help put the finishing touches on the backyard. Sunday my maid of honor Sarah will be throwing Bob and I an engagement party, which I'm excited for since all of my best friends will be there, and I don't see them often anymore with all the wedding planning and what not. Afterward I will be meeting with my photographer, Jeanine, to go thru my bridals and pick out the ones I like the most to be edited. I'm excited to see how they all turned out! The most exciting part of this last week though, was probably the bridal shower my family put together for me. We had a great turn out from both Bob's family and mine, and we ended up with some great gifts! Thank you everyone who came out and showed support!
