two months and one day

This update is probably long over due but there's not much to update about.  Here's the list!

*We set up a date/time to take another look at the venue we like
*The search for the perfect photographer continues
*The guest list is almost complete
*I've begun collecting brooches for my brooch bouquet
*David has been collecting seeds for something that can not be disclosed yet:)
*We bought a slow cooker with a gift card from David's grandma
*Etienne gave us a coupon for Home Sense which we used to buy an awesome clock and a neat tray

We've been engaged for about two months and it seems to have flown by. Hopefully the next year and 59 days will go by just as fast!

uber productive

the day after we met the photographer (see previous post), Kaitlyn and i went to look at more dresses. i didn't see anything i liked...except my 'wedding buddy' (jessica) from work in her gown! she was modelling it for her family and Kaitlyn and i got to see all the loveliness. the gown is big and poufy and flowery...its so pretty. jessica is getting married in October of this year so we have been comparing plans and she has been sharing a lot of ideas. it's pretty fun:)
on sunday David and i went to look at a venue for the reception. i'm not giving any hints about it so that if we choose it, the small group of people coming for the dinner can be wowed! we like it a lot and the owners actually make all the food fresh that morning.
i thought i knew what colours i'd like for everything but i changed my mind this weekend...the new colour scheme is also a secret! only David, our mothers and my girls know:) speaking of the girls: we're going to look at bridesmaids dresses next month.  YAY!

that's all for now.
