SAVE THE EFFIN DATE

I spoke with me mom today and the save the date cards are back on the plate! I'd taken a little step back from thinking about the weddin' to focus on the business. However, May will be here SOONER than one thinks and I want to make sure everything is going along smoothly.

This time off of work is supposed to be equal parts getting Balance up and running and equal parts getting the house/yard in order for next year. I'm happy to report I am in fact striking a good balance of the two.

I've done most of the landscaping work I wanted to accomplish in the front yard, and after the effin garage sale this weekend, we should be in a good place to get paint inside the house and make time to landscape the back. YAY!

That's all. Just a little update to keep me focused while we move in 15 different directions.

It's a very exciting time right now. Or as one might say....

It's Effin Amazing!

The effin rings

Breakfast at Tiffany's

We got the rings this weekend. YAY! It was a perfect weekend. Simply amazing.

I had the time of my life with the love of my life and I couldn't ask for anything more.

Tonight we have our official engagement dinner. I didn't know I could be so nervous and excited for something we've talked about for months.

We are less than a year to our big day! haha....we are so excited.

I'll grab CD some night and we'll put down the official "EFFIN PIG ROAST" blog, complete with details on the event and what everyone can look forward to.

This woman....she was made for me!

The effin countdown....

We are headed to big windy on May 16th.  One year to the date we are going to celebrate!  As you can tell by our photo, we are excited.  Even the dog. 

So let's see.....20 days to Chicago...385 days to THE EFFIN PIG ROAST! 

Who's excited?  (See paragraph one)

I think we've decided that CD is going to get an engagement pendant since she can't wear rings for work.  I, on the other hand, am going D.I.A.M.O.N.D.   

Or so we say.  

Chicago...here we come!

05.16.09

We talked over the weekend and decided it was time to set the date. Life has been so crazy lately with us trying to get the business off the ground. But we realize we have to make sure we continue to build our foundation.

So we had our family meeting last Saturday to review where we were with the business, update everyone and let them ask us any questions they may have. We took the time to let them know we were also working on our personal side. It was good to get everyone on the same page we are on.

After the stress of Saturday was over, we took Sunday night to regroup and relax. We talked about setting our date and starting to work on the wedding. We know the next year is going to be crazy, so we are still planning on keeping it simple and small and oh so much fun!

We are going to work on the yard this summer and get all the proper flowers in place so we don't have to worry about that next summer. EXCITING.

I have an idea brewing about getting the rings too. It's in place. YAY!

This is effin fun!
