Because life isn't busy enough....

Before I get into the events of yesterday I will quickly update you on wedding stuff. All of the planning is pretty much done, now it is just finishing touches on everything and some picture stuff. We are now down to 16 days so that is very exciting...now to yesterday...

I was sitting at home in my apartment watching TV while waiting for Richard to get home so we could eat dinner and go over to our friend's house for a game night when I got a phone call from Justin...

Jordan had a pretty bad accident on his bike. He was riding up the hill to our house (in a hurry to try and get home in time for FHE) and there was a big huge trailer hitch (the kind that stick out of the back of a truck) sticking out across the sidewalk and he was almost to the top of the hill and getting tired so his head was down concentrating and he didn't see the hitch and hit his head on it and cracked his head open. After riding in the ambulance to the hospital he got 20 stitches. His cut was 4 inches long and about 1/4 inch wide and deep...so it was quite the eventful night at our house. I spent the night home with my family because Jordan wanted me there when he got home and that wasn't til about 11pm.

Less than 30 days and the art of bargain shopping as two poor college students...

So we are now under 30 days until the glorious day of August 7th! YAY!!! :)

In the last 3 days Richard and I have really become quite the bargain shoppers...especially when it comes to furniture...we need furniture but there isn't much money to purchase it. Luckily, from my house we are taking a couch and dresser so that is helpful but then there is the issue, of desk, bed, entertainment center, etc. So what is the solution...craigslist and ksl.com....great sources. We found an entertainment center on craigslist for $35 and we found a bed (metal frame, box springs, and mattress) on ksl.com for $75! Yes...I used bed sounds gross, but we checked it out and it is all very clean and nice, and only a few years old, and when you are poor engaged college students you take what you can get. :) YAY! So we are pretty excited about that.

So the great thing is that we now have furniture that we can put into our apartment...the problem is that it is July 9th and we can't move anything into our apartment until August 4th. So the trick is finding a place to store it. I have a feeling my parent's house is going to really get filled up...I am sure they will love that...especially since they just dejunked and cleaned the basement....hehehe.

DOWN TO A MONTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well...in case you couldn't tell from the title it is down to exactly one month until the wedding day!!! Tonight me and Richard are going over to my house to finish up addressing announcements so that they can be sent off! YAY! Things are coming together well but life just gets more and more insanely busy with everyday! I don't think that it will ever end! Nothing too exciting is going on, just working on lots of little wedding details but it is all coming together very well and I love it!
