60 to go!

Oh my gosh I can't believe it, but in 60 days we tie the knot :D so excited!


The wedding planning is on a little stop because the most important things are done by now - booking the venue, catering, guest list and invitations, the dress, the suit, paying deposits :D

Next saturday we'll meet our officiant to discuss the wedding ceremony :) I am excited to meet the reverend. Hopefully we'll like him :D anything else? Oh yes! Our engagement photoshooting comes up :) Mid September we'll go to Savage parc for the shoot. I found the photographer on groupon so we will see how she is :) i like to support local businesses ;)

Today JT and me went to Micheals to look around for some inspiration for our decoration ;) it is crazy but the stores already laid out all fall and halloween decoration. So now I have to wait for nice sales and coupons and I go shopping again :D


And my bridesmaids finally picked out their dresses :D so that is done too!

Back at work

Whoop today is my first day back at work after a three week vacation :D but I have to say it goes pretty nice. No screaming or crying from the baby - all fine! Even the waving goodbye to her mom was the usual :D wow! So we are pretty much right back to our day-to-day routine which makes it quite boring. But anyway I shouldn't complain. All in all a good start back in to work.

At the beginning of September comes the first change for my 2yr old girl. Preschool! She will go five times a week from 8.30am to 12.15pm. So I will just work halfdays :) more time for my studies! Can't wait haha :D with all the wedding planning going on it will be nice having time during the day to study ;)

Wedding planning :)

We decided to get married this year and our wedding day will be October 24th 2013 <3 so now it is just 66 days left and the last few days I was really busy planning our wedding ;)

But with the most important parts my parents were able to help us. The last day of their vacation my mom and me went to look for bridal gowns and oh my gosh we found it! First dress I had on and that was it: had my bridal moment ;) <3 I am so happy that my mom was able to go with me and that she was there when I found my dress <3 and the same day my dad and JT went looking for suits and both found some too :)

And the same day we found the prefect wedding location! We will get married at Historic Savage Mill Manor :) we looked at the house and everyone loved it! It is a really cute manor from 1844 and we will have there our ceremony and reception with heavy hors d'oeuvres :)

Historic Savage Mill Manor in Maryland :)

possibility to have the ceremony outside xD
So yeah we booked the venue and catering ;) and on they departure day we went to Party City and found the perfect wedding invitation :D so we could check off the biggest parts in two days!!! And my parents were a part of it! Perfect <3

Last week I was working on our guest list which was not my definition of a fun vacation, but now everything is fixed and our guest list has around 105 people :D but most of them is JT's family haha and my side is just really small :D Mom, Dad, sister plus boyfriend, best friend plus boyfriend and a really good friend of my dad will all come for sure to our wedding in October :)

On thursday I sent out all the invitations and by end of September/beginning of October we should know the head count :D

My parents were here for two weeks and my man decided to take the next step and I asked my dad for my hand in marriage :) we all went for a little beach vacation to Rehoboth Beach in Deleware and he proposed to me at the beach <3 just perfect!!!

Otherwise it was a wonderful time to have my parents here with us. They love it in Maryland and the goodbye was really hard. They just had compliments for my now fiance and they all liked each other :) it was just perfect! Even the Reunion of our families was a success :D
