Holy cow, I'm gettin married!

With all the excitement and work of moving, I don't think it's actually sunk in yet that I'm engaged, I just wiggle my finger a lot and watch the sparkles :)

The new place is great, I'm really liking it! We just have a few more things to put away and stuff to hang on the walls. I don't like unpacking during the week, so that has really been a weekend thing! We got a new rug at Kohls yesterday, I'm totally lovin it! http://www.kohls.com/products/product_page_multiple0.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=429075211&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=354525545&CONTENT%3C%3Ecnt_id=71240501&bmUID=1187659930520

This interesting "contemporary" rug is our attempt to make our couches look less gay together, I think it helps :) It actually looks quite a bit better on the floor than it does in a picture, whew!

Congrats Liz on the new addition to your mouth, I hope the blisters and such go away soon. You'll have to coordinate your braces with the color of the bridesmaid dress, LOL! Currently, I'm still thinking poop brown for the dresses (aka "mocha")... but I'm sure I'll change my mind 5 times, then do the other fall colors in the flowers and decor, and maybe in sashes.

Help me pick! http://www.crayola.com/colorcensus/history/current_120_colors.cfm

Colors I like for the full 5 color rainbow of sashes:

Scarlet, Burnt orange, red orange, bittersweet
Neon Carrot, burnt orange,
Sun glow(actually in the orange family), Dandelion, Goldenrod, or maybe a much more subtle yellow
Granny Smith Apple, Screamin green :P
Cerulean or Cornflower... it's a tough call!

Oh my, or maybe just the mocha and a light green (granny smith)? Then the other colors could be worked into the flowers and decor. Ooh, I kinda like that!

Plans so far-- October 10th seems to be open, so hopefully we'll be locking in on 10-10-2008. That's a Friday, so it will be an evening gig, probably ceremony starting between 4 and 5, reception around 7 pm. That's Columbus day weekend, the gayest holiday ever according to Liz! Holiday weekends are usually a no no, but I don't think that counts as a "real" holiday.

OK- cutting this post short for bed, more to come soon!
