The latest and upcoming events

Last weekend my cousin Jennifer and I went down to Tinley Park for the Brad Paisley H2O tour. We had a GREAT time! I told Brandy, next to NSync in the 8th grade.... this was one of the best shows I've been to. :) The following day was my bachelorette party, so I had quite the eventful weekend. We had a blast going out around my new neighborhood!

Jennifer and I waiting for the show to begin.

Darius Rucker aka Hootie was one of the opening acts.

Brad... we were about 2o rows back.

Well, the big event is one week from today. I'm definitely starting to feel nervous, just because of all the planning and prep that goes into it. I am sooo excited and I can't believe that it is finally here.
Alex takes the biggest test of his life on Tuesday and Wednesday- we would definitely appreciate any good thoughts while he goes to tackle the Bar. I am so impressed with how dedicated to studying he has been. He will, with out a doubt, deserve a week of rest and relaxation in Costa Rica- we're both super excited for that! We plan on doing a zip line tour, kayaking, and whatever else is available while we are down there.
I'm not too sure I'll be doing any blogging for the rest of the week. I head down to L-town on Monday to put the final touches on everything.
Its going to be a busy week, but I'm ready for it!

One Month??!!

Where did the time go?? I got so comfortable with saying "oh.... there is still plenty of time to do that." Not so much anymore! I can't believe we are only one month from our wedding day. I'm definitely starting to feel the crunch. Confirming everything, ordering things, yikes! Its a good thing I am out of school and have a little more time to concentrate on things.
Alex is feeling the crunch as well, just not as much over wedding, instead over the Bar. The countdown to that is basically the same as the wedding. He has been on a pretty strict schedule for studying and he is doing a much better job than I would.
We are settling into our new apartment. Still need to put away a few odds and ends... not really sure where to put the random things, but it will come together.
Let the countdown begin!!
