This is all about my journey to (finally) becoming a wife to my fiancée (whom I'll refer to as Mr. H). This isn't about winning awards or being recognized as a "must read blog". It's to keep my out of towners, family, besties and everyone else in the loop, being able to share in the happiness (and stress) of planning a wedding, to document the process so that I can remember it clearly later on, and hopefully helping some other brides-to-be along the way.

One Year to Go!!!!

So I haven't been the best blogger lately, but there's a very good reason for it: LIFE!!!

While everything hasn't been roses, it's be a crazy month. 

After a WONDERFUL vacation with Mr. H, we had some family obligations to take care of. 
Mr. H"s brother has been in and out of the hospital for the last few years, but about one week before we left for vacation, he was admitted to the ICU and has since be transfered to a rehabilitation facility and is doing much better. We went and saw him and then discussed with the other brother and sister what our game plan is going to be. Next month, we'll be relocating his apartment goods so when he's out ,he can be closer to one of the siblings. 

Then last week, my cousin in Arizona was in a very bad motorcycle accident and is still in the ICU, but is going to be transfered to a rehab facility soon. The first few days were touch and go, he's now doing much better than everyone excepted, but has a long road ahead of him. I think about Bryan every day and think about how well he's doing so far...

Last week, was our first official summer BBQ. It was so much fun and cannot wait for more. 

Mr. H and I were also able to hear our DJ at another BBQ and so that's now a go.....
He only plays LP's so the search is on, and I've been having a lot of fun with it.... 


Now the exciting news, ONE YEAR from today, I'll be MRS. H!!!

That's right, 365 days, or 5 weeks, or 12 months to go!!!!! 

I cannot wait until we are Mr. & Mrs.....


I promise to try to be a better blogger.... I'm meeting with the flower lady next Wednesday with my mom, so I'll have a recap of that. Plus there's my DIY project for the cocktail hour that I'm getting ready to start, so I'll share that. All I can say is I love Japanese paper tape!!!!
