...like spinning the tires in mud.

Well, over the past two weekends we didn't get much done. We've had an offer on a house sit and wait for the bank, and Shauna's been pretty sick. Moreso, the place that we were going to have our ceremony, after telling us several times that they were open, has magically discovered that they're not going to be available for our weekend, which leaves us hanging out to dry, again. Shauna tried to contact another site but, as far as I can tell, they have not even responded to her. Not an auspicious start!

I think that I'm going to to try and get some of the "Save the Date" cards out in the next couple days...I'm sure that some people would appreciate the signs of life...

Ceremony sites, wedding dresses, and house frustrations

We, once again, have been outbid on a house. It's getting very frustrating to keep looking at houses and finding ones we like and not being able to buy them. It adds on to the pressure of wedding plan. So hopefully, we can find one soon, so that we can stop splitting our efforts so much.

We are also still having trouble finding a ceremony site. I found a list of all churches in the city of Warren and we were going to start calling them, but Patrick's mom found a great advertisement in the magazine Newsbeat that mentioned renting out the atrium at Warren City Hall. So I'm going to call them today to check on prices, logistics and other such things. It would really be a perfect location because not only is it pretty, it also is super close (within a mile) of our reception site, Royalty House, and it provides a place for very nice pictures in front of the new fountain. With any luck, we'll have our locations picked out by the end of the week and we'll be able to really start looking into other vendors, like photographers and cakes.

It's getting close to the 6 months to go mark and I still haven't picked a dress yet! It's so hard to decide!!
