We’re still alive!
I need to apologize for leaving you all hanging for so long. Life has been so crazy with work and trying to get settled in our new home and of course wedding planning….I haven’t had the motivation to blog! But I just wanted to give a quick update to let you all know we’re still alive! 
(Plus I’ve been getting many requests from a certain few!!)
In January we moved to Cedar Rapids and Greg took a job with Hybrid Transit where he is an account manager. Things are going well for me at Groupon. I stay really busy, but enjoy meeting so many business owners and learning the land of Eastern Iowa. If anyone knows any business owners in the area who are looking for new customers, send them my way!
As usual, we have a full weekend ahead of us this weekend. Saturday morning I am heading to Des Moines to try on my dress and pick my veil and accessories! I also get to pick up our bridesmaid dresses! After that we have our appointment with Bella Flora to design our flowers and decorations. I’m so excited for this and have been cutting pictures from magazines/printing things from online to show them my ideas. I can’t wait to see it all come together. After that it’s back to Des Moines as we have our Pre Cana wedding preparation Saturday night and Sunday afternoon with the church. This is one of the last steps we have to do to be ready to be married! We’ll let you know how it goes…. Previously when we met with the deacon we had to take a 189 question test about our compatibility and things that could come up after we’re married. I’m proud to report the deacon said we were “clearly very compatible” and our marriage seemed to be very “vanilla”. I think that was a good thing!!!
In other news, I had to take Ms. Dory to the vet this week for a bad ear infection. Turns out she has allergies (she fits right in with Greg and I) and sometimes ear infections are the result. It also means that the poor thing is itchy a lot! We got some meds and are trying them out. Putting ear drops in her ears are NOT my favorite….but she does pretty well.
I think that’s all for now. I will write again soon to tell you all about the other exciting things coming up. We are down to 3 months until the BIG DAY and we have tons of parties and celebrations planned the next 3 months to lead up to it. We can’t believe how fast the time has gone since we got engaged. It will have been a year ago at the end of this month! WOW time flies!!!
Have a great FRIDAY and weekend, everyone! Oh, and check out today’s Groupon!!
