Where I Wanna Be

Danny and I spent the better part of the past 4 hours downtown helping get things set up for the party tomorrow night.  Neither one of us is really all that helpful when it comes to helping decorate or arrange things on the table.  However, we are both pretty good at following directions – and [...]

Today was supposed to be our closing date on the new house.  Unfortunately, as soon as I hit “post” on my last entry, everything pretty much went to hell on the deal.  Actually, the deal is still on – but, we are having some serious issues with our lender.  It isn’t that we cannot get [...]

After a bunch of weeks of looking at houses (that for the most part totally sucked), we finally had a bit of luck and stumbled onto a really nice house in what seems like a great neighborhood.  After debating the pros and cons of the house for a very long time, we decided to make [...]

Note:  I started writing this post on Sunday night and then life got very hectic.
Keeping in the spirit of doing everything totally backwards for my wedding festivities – this weekend I had two events happen in my honor – a bridal shower and then a bachelorette party.  Even though these are both things that [...]

I have totally neglected this blog.  I am so, so bad at remembering to grab my camera when I leave the condo.  Not to mention, I am still a little gun shy about taking random pictures in public.  Oh, the irony – especially considering that I consider photography to be a hard core hobby of [...]

When it comes to our food preferences, Danny and I could not be any more different.  I consider myself to be about 75% vegetarian.  I eat meat, but, am very picky about it.  Danny, on the other hand, refers to himself as a “meat-a-tarian” and I affectionately refer to him as “meat-o.”  He would never [...]

Danny and I exchanged wedding gifts over the weekend.  Even though the tradition is that gifts are not supposed to be exchanged until the actual wedding day, nothing about our engagement/wedding/reception has been traditional up until this point, so, why start now?  We had actually agreed not to do gifts, since we are trying to [...]

Our condo has gone on the market in the past month and we are just now starting to get some showings.  It is kind of exciting, because we really, really want to get this place sold.  But, on the other hand, it sucks because we never know if or when we are going to get [...]
