Good news, and a farewell of sorts

This past weekend at home was very productive.  I finished addressing invitation envelopes, and my awesome mom stamped them.  Wedding invitations were sent out today, thanks to Mom who dropped them off at the post office in my hometown.  I distributed the invites for my co-workers at work today.

We have a new vocalist for our wedding, who happens to be one of my old high school English teachers. :)  She has a beautiful voice and I'm so excited she will be singing at our wedding.

I met with our wedding cake vendor over the weekend, and I'm liking our Plan B cake more and more.  It will look awesome!

Finally, my Realtor called me at work today.  We got the condo!  Yay!  Now, I know (thanks, Sam!) that we really won't get the condo until the keys are in hand at closing, but I still can't help but be ecstatic about the news.  I was squealing so much at work that my co-workers thought I was crazy!  Closing should take place before August 25, and I'm hoping to move all my stuff in the last weekend in August and Labor Day weekend.  I can't wait!

It's now less than two months before future hubs and I get married, and it's crunch time.  Don't be surprised if you see me blogging and commenting on your entries less.  However, this doesn't mean that I don't care about you!  I love you guys and I thank you for reading my thoughts and following me on my journey.  I will continue to pray for good races for you all and for good things to happen in your lives.  I will probably post a race report here and there, when I'm not busy doing wedding stuff and moving.  I will be back in full force after September 17 (our wedding day!!!!) and our honeymoon, which will happen immediately after the wedding.  I hope to write even more and make this blog really take off!

Have a great week!

  3. Ohhh, I'm torn between being so excited for you upcoming major life events and being sad you'll be less around in the bloggy world. Okay - my joy is greater. Good luck with all of your upcoming plans and happenings. Enjoy every minute even when it feels stressful and you just want it to be over - it's part of the journey - and just like in a race, some parts are faster and smoother than others, but it's the full mileage that makes the complete story. Good luck - will miss you, but will be praying for you and your "new" life: ) God bless!

  6. Don't be afraid to give yourself extra time to settle in after the wedding. It seriously took us about 2 months. So much to do afterward with name changing and combining bank accounts, etc.

    Enjoy that time!
