As we near the big day, we’ve identified several large projects we’ve needed to take on to prepare for our lives together.  Some are mandated by the wedding date, some are mandated by the Church, and others have been mandated for the benefit of our sanity.  Overtime, these have accumulated into an unmanageable pile of wishes that seemed light-years from being accomplished.

Then it happened… whether by a stroke of luck, unexplained ambition, or extra shot of caffeine… we’ve managed to have one of the more productive weeks we can remember.  We’ve finished our Pre-Cana duties and wrapped up all of our wedding paper-work for the church.  We’ve finalized our linens, menus, and floral arrangements.  We’ve selected our playlist (mostly), and started to work toward the completion of rehearsal dinner planning.  We’ve booked our honeymoon, bachelor weekend, bachelorette weekend, bridal luncheon, and brunch.

This sudden stroke of productivity reached far beyond wedding planning as Billy set out to purchase a new car (long past due) and finalized the deal within 24 hours.  Blyth was able to select bedroom furniture for their master bedroom and set a shipment date in May.  It just seems like all of the puzzles are starting to come together.  Sure, we still have a few other things to iron out (and some Christmas decorations Billy still needs to move to the attic), but that un-manageable list has dwindled down…and we are starting to feel like we’re finally in a good place…sigh…

Billy's Awesome New Car!
