Any Day Now...

So I've neglected this little personal blog of mine for a year and a half. I had every intention of getting back to it and chronicaling my buddy Kristin's wedding day process, but I'm so far behind, I think I'll not bother to catch up. However from now on, I will share the big events (her shower is in two days, and we'll do the bacheloretter party too, why not?!?).

But the REAL reason I am writing is because Mike just told me that the house sale is looking pretty good. If all goes well, he goes to the closing tomorrow and the house is no longer his. In the interim of us finding a NEW house, we'll be living with Charyl and Ron in Byron Center, which is not ideal when looking for homes in Rockford, but we'll manage. I'm excited! We have until the end of the month to get out. I am sad because little Pete is going to have to go live and Mom and Dad's until we find a new house (Charyl can't have cats around as she's allergic and I can just imagine all the havoc Pete would wreak at their house), but that will motivate me to find a house that much sooner, I think.

And also, I have secretly started planning a real wedding. Not like the ones I do every couple of months because I'm bored at work... a REAL one. Mike's biological clock is ticking, and he wants kids. I said we aren't doing that until I am married. And I do have almost a whole month free in June... while planning a wedding that quick isn't my ideal situation, I love that time of year and it fit with just about everything else. Mike agreed and says although we must keep it hush-hush until it's official, I've already got venue appointments and an appointment with my potential photographer (so sad it's not Summer... she's not available on the day the venue I want most is open... but we'll see). Working on the florist and cake lady too.

So with the house sale (likely, fingers crossed) going through, I am expecting something sparkley any day now...
