According to our handy-dandy wedding checklist, we're right on schedule. We've: set a date, scheduled a temple time, found a venue, picked a color scheme, found a photographer, compiled guest lists, designed invitations, contacted a florist, scheduled and E-session {new wedding blog lingo}, and bought a plane ticket for a quick "get stuff done" weekend.
We got engaged last Wednesday night. It still seems a little surreal, but natural at the same time. I love it. My Mom is the most wonderful woman on earth {duh}, she is constantly working out glitches and figuring out all the wedding stuff back in Logan for me. His sisters are all over the Open House in Texas, it's going to be great. Mckay is so supportive & involved, last night he told my Mom that the planning is "fun". He's cute. He made a code word last week {it's mazel tov} & when he says that, it means I need to calm down. He's only had to use it twice so far. Phew.
Last night we went to the city for a delicious Indian dinner on the Lower East Side with Mckay's college friend, Ghram. This is what the inside of the restaurant looked like. It was a little claustrophobic, but so fun and crazy. Come visit & we'll take you here.
Our sweet friend Patrick picked us up celebratory calories {those ones don't count} from Magnolia's Bakery in the city. We ate {read: inhaled} these in five seconds, they were delicious. Red velvet and chocolate swirl cheesecake. Thanks Patrick!
RS sleep over on Friday, it was fun. Mostly telling our engagement story a frillion times, showing off the ring, & Sydney screaming in excitement was fun.
Skyped {such a clever/useful invention} with Ashley & Scott, Ash snapped a picture of me being excited to get married. Guilty.
I have no idea what to wear for our engagements, blah. I tried on a few dresses for Mckay but the most I got out of that was a "that's nice". Hhhuummm. Classy fashion guru genie please come help me, & bring some money.
That's it for week 8.
