Wedding bug

So sorry but all post for the next month will be wedding type post. You have your disclosure!

So we are at the 30 day mark and I am making my list and checking it twice:

Food: check have to call it in on weds before the wedding
Flowers: check Kara with Wild Orchid is on it- love having talented friends
Music: We bought all the equipment and I am working on the playlist tweeting it
Cake: I have ordered my cake and we are ordering whatever for the groom cake next weekend
Decorations: all I have left to buy is 3 packs of lanterns and blue fabric for the table runner
Photos: done and Christa is helping with the photobooth. P and I are making the backdrop
next weekend too
Attire: I have my dress and all altered just needs to be cleaned from bridal photos. P just needs
pants and he is done but he has been lossing weight so he is waiting.


That is where I am. I have 3 craft projects left of doing the favor tins, the back of the program fans, and tying the silverware. Everything else is pretty much done.

I took my Bridal Photos last week and am so excited about them. I have a few I really really like. Now I just have to get my dress cleaned from parading around Gruene. I have to make Dre go get her dress this weekend after the shower.

And yeah my bridal shower is this weekend and I am so excted to see all my family and friends. I can't believe it is all here now! Ok well off to finish wedding list!

Cinco de Mayo

So it is officially less that TWO months before oue wedding! I picked up my wedding dress last week and am getting it altered to hopefully have it ready for my bridal portraits on May 15th. I am paying off the house this week and all I have left is mail the invitations, find Patrick's clothes, pay the florist, photographer, figure out where the cakes are coming from, and make the playlist for the MP3 player. Which in my head did not seem like that much....Hmmm. I need to get on it!

So this weekend my family came into town and we had get together to remember my gramma who passed away last April. Patrick has met most my family before this weekend but was able to meet the rest of my mom- side of the family this weekend. Everyone seems to like one and other. Apparently they all liked him as there was much discussion about him after we left to go to another party that evening. I took my wedding dress with me and everyone got to see it while Patrick wandered around the yard, waiting to be let back in the house. Next we took Dani with us to Jon Jon's annual Cinco de Mayo party where they where in full swing and everyone had a good time. Sunday morning we got up and had breakfast with the family still in town and came home with our movies from redbox and did nothing! It was great! We both needed a do nothing day.

So that is the doing of us. We have heard nothing on a transfer yet but looking in The Scoop (bb company newsletter) They have hired 2 new people in NB which we hope is for the school route and not that Patrick got overlooked.

This week I am taking off Weds. to take Patrick to the Astros game from some of the tickets I got him for his birthday. Now to figure out were to go to lunch. I'm thinking P.F. Changs since he loves pei wei and has never had it. I have a Dre pool day and crawfish night Thursday so I am very excited about this week!

Chan-chan-Change

So Mr. K and I visited his parents for easter and had a good time. Last week was also his mom's birthday and she had made it clear she wanted at least a card! So we where going to get her flowers then I thought a cake, then P thought cake pops! So off on trip to hobby lobby and the grocery store we as in P came up with he idea and I will execute it were making rose shaped cake pops! If you have never seen cake pops look here. I wqanna make pretties like Bakerella and live like Pioneer Woman. But I digress. I'll load pics tonight but they were a hit! His mom kept going on about how creative and pretty they were and thanking me and poor P was like but they where my idea! Yes babe you had a good idea!
So the drive back on sunday came earlier than normal cause I had to work. While driving back we had a little heart to heart of what is to come after the wedding and about our move. We have not visited this topic to much, except when it is time for rent and we are having to pay an extra $100 a month. He has been told that there with not be a regular route available for a while because before they hire out they have school route drivers to promote in New Braunfels. We have ruled San Antonio out just because some of their routes go damn near mexico and Patrick would have to leave the house for work at 1-2 in the morning. Not worth it! So we now have the question of do we go ahead and him take a School route which is mon-fri and weekends off for the time being til he can get a regular route or just wait for the regular route like he is on now. The only problem with a school route is less money. Right now most of my money is spent frivolously on stuff. I pay half the house hold bills and my storage and cell phone. The rest is wedding stuff and shopping and eating out. I know there is ways to save money on both our parts as now whatever we want we buy with no second thought. I also am wanting to take my certification to become a paralegal. This is my safety net of between that and my real estate background to get outta the bar business and into something more stable. Or more some something with benefits of maternity leave. most of this talk leads basically to when we will start adding little mini ones to our family. Because the move has to take place before we have any kids. So is it really that bad that I can't shop on my four days off a week to be able to relocate faster and get out of our holding pattern....
