this week has been incredibly busy but we have accomplished so much that i am excited and relieved about.
monday night i had to work late training a new employee but after my shift we went over for dinner at my parents. we hadn't been there in a while so it was nice to have an actual conversation with my parents that didn't have to do with some wedding issue or update. after that we went to home depot and lowes. i have decided that lowes is my new favorite home hardware store. obviously, as you know from my last post, we purchased new flooring for our kitchen. jesse claims that this is that happiest he has seen me since we moved in (this is probably true, especially lately haha). so, tonight we are going to rip out all the existing baseboard and sand the current lino floor. hopefully by sunday we will have laid all the new flooring. i seriously cannot wait.
then, tuesday we started our hunt for shirts and ties. apparently it is incredibly hard to find the perfect purple dress shirt. we were unsuccessful on tuesday and postponed our hunt until wednesday after we met with our photographer.
the meeting with the photographer went really well; she made us really think about the time line of our wedding and order of events - something that we hadn't exactly planned yet. we discussed the usual photography logistics like the various locations we would want to stop at for photos, when she would meet us to start shooting etc. she seems really excited to shoot our wedding and we are really excited that she is shooting it.
after that we decided to look one more time for shirts and ties. finally, we were successful. we ended up getting light purple shirts with a dark purple tie to match the bridesmaids dresses. originally, i hadn't really wanted a lighter purple shirt, since i think it is a very summerish look, but i am really happy with how it turned out.
so, all in all, we have accomplished a lot and spent a lot this week.
tomorrow morning i leave for edmonton for the weekend; i am going to see taylor swift with my girlfriends and am super excited. we will drive up tomorrow morning, spend the afternoon at the mall, have lunch with our friend britt who moved there for the physio program and u of a, then check into the hotel and hit the concert! saturday morning we plan on getting up early (well as early as we can manage after a late night concert and a few bottles of wine) and driving home. i have to get home at a reasonable time since i promised jesse i would help him with the floor saturday afternoon / evening and sunday!
new flooring and taylor swift all in one weekend, what more can a girl ask for?!
