And so it begins

Well for my job I am now officially handling weddings and other social functions instead of corporate stuff. So I am thinking that by the time we tie the knot I will officially be sick of weddings...too bad we are getting married right before peak wedding season which means I will have to come back to this nonsense! Lovely. The only good part is that I am hoping that some of the DJ's and Limo companies, etc. that we continuously refer people too give us a huge deal since I will be referring people there in the future.

I am really in shock of how much weddings cost (well both of us are). We are trying to stick as tightly to a budget as we can and are hoping that this one day doesn't cost us some crazy amount. I would be perfectly happy eloping at this point but I don't know that Brad feels the same.

I keep wanting to push the date up. I would totally get married tomorrow if I could. I am to the point where I dont even care anymore, I dont want to wait, I dont want to plan, and I dont care what happens at my wedding because I will just be so overly excited to be marrying Brad. I am actually glad because I was scared I was going to be bridezilla....and although I might be in some senses, I think I am taking everything in stride at this point.

Brad is the greatest fiance a girl could ask for, he actually enjoys the planning, and comes along for EVERYTHING. He even is going to "diet" with me to show his support. I am so thankful for him and for how amazing he is to me. I don't think I tell him that enough.

Well we had our first spat since being engaged...all over plates. And it wasnt really a spat except that I was being stubborn so it was drawn out way longer than it should have been. It is so funny trying to mesh two people's different tastes and trying to register for stuff you both will have to use. I really need to work on being more selfless and not always wanting things my way because lord knows I really struggle with that. It's fun learning more about each other by registering and trying to figure things out. Even though I know we will have our shares of arguements...or shall I say differing of opinions...I wouldn't change it for the world because I love Bradley Steven Granquist so so much!

My ring is almost insured now...there is a little about planning.

Plans for this week:

• Continue registering
• Try to be less stubborn (Nichole's goal)
• Pick a time to go with Vanessa, Mom and Mrs. Bossert to get dress material!!!
• Go look at the venue we are leaning towards set up for a wedding
