CONFIRMED!
wow!! Its been a while since I have blogged! We had to change the date due to it being booked on the original date. It has now been changed to May 29th! Set in stone, in concrete, engraved, solidified!! I'm so excited. We checked out the venue. Very rustic, romantic and vintage. May I say that we can do a lot here! Alicia, one of the bridesmaids and also my wedding planner (may I just add that she just had a baby too...superwoman!) checked out the venue with us and her gears are already churning! It may be 8 months away but I hear that time flies! Our save the dates will be coming out soon! Whitney, another bridesmaid who is also doing our invitations and save the dates (she's so awesome!!) is so creative and I am so thankful to have her help out with her beautiful and totally right brained work! I'm getting really excited about this wedding. I want to make sure that everyone else has a great time too to help us celebrate this awesome day in our life. We need support and lots of it! :)

colors,flowers and fabrics...oh my!
yay!!! its about time for me to finalize my colors!! so we have decided to go with espresso brown, mango yellow and rich lime green. Very springy!!
Now, the flowers we have decided on are going to be sweet peas and gerbera daisies :)
I am hoping that we can find and get simple fabrics. Think Shabby Chic...country bohemian :) We want this wedding to be cozy, laid back and fun! Just a great day to celebrate a day that commemorates the rest of our lives!

the day they got me....!
on 8/22/2009...
The beginning....
Dan and his clever ways came up with an idea to write a script. All the while I thought I was having a "normal" birthday gathering at our bunkhouse. Lots of steak, lots of booze and lots of family/friends. It was laid back and casual. Then as people are getting ready to head out, Dan pulls a fast one...which would be a script out of his hands :) He gathers the family around and proceeds to tell all the guests to get into a circle. Right as I am about to sit down, they inform me that I am part of the script. I'm thinking...great here we go, I'm going to have an embarrassing story about something and then a picture of my naked caboose will magically appear on the television screen just to bring in my 24th year. Dan, my two siblings - Dean and Maddy, Dan's three sons- Collin, Logan and Devin and Dan's niece CJ all had their own loving parts in the play, including myself. As they started to read, I noticed that it had a depiction of how each and everyone of us is but in a funny "put a velvet blanket over your head and make it sound pretty" kind of way. As we start to reach the "castle on a sandy beach"...at this point I'm thinking, SCORE! Look Ma, I'm going to Cabo! But it continued into the "castle" without anyone showing up on my doorstep with a big check saying I won a million dollars...wait I was thinking about a trip to Cabo. Anyway....further along the story, a prince with a belly (yes he actually put that in there, it was hilarious!) comes down the winding steps and asks why we are all in his house...and as my character was explaining that we were going to leave, Prince Charming quickly tells the madam in distress not to go! This is where I started shaking and everyone started grabbing cameras and bootys (okay not the latter half). Dan told me that he wanted to get to the happily ever after part and gets down on one knee, says his lovely speech and ends it with me yelping "Absolutely yes!" Ahhh, I am so in love.
p.s. the kids and CJ knew about this for a whole two months and nobody narked! I give such credit
to them :)

when two planets collide...(or rather people)
mars verses venus. mars meets venus. venus meets mars. mars and venus become great friends. mars goes through hard time in life. venus is there for mars. venus realizes how much she cares for mars and same goes for mars. venus not only falls in love with mars but then realizes that she cares for the mini mars.venus' family merges with mars. now mars and venus will become MARNUS (mars venus = marnus) :-P
