-1 Year Anniversary

Lunetta from Italy

This weekend we've been celebrating our negative one year wedding anniversary.  What is a negative one year anniversary you ask?  We are three hundred and sixty five days from the wedding day, hence a negative rather than a plus one....I think you get the gist.  

        What have done to celebrate (besides kind of freaking out that we haven't done anything in the last six months we've had to plan)?  Well, Friday we went out to dinner with friends we haven't seen in ages (and they bought us dinner, which was fabulous of them).  Saturday evening we fixed a fantastic dinner together of homegrown veggie fajitas and toasted to a year of fun times and productive planning over a couple glasses of cheap champagne (sorry, I mean sparkling wine...).  Today we slept in, which was really great and spent the morning running errands.  I took the Hubs To Be out to brunch at the most popular place in town (McCarthy's) where we hammered out some details over blueberry pancakes and a tuna sandwich.  Closing the place down we decided it was time to hang our wedding hat on the hook for the day and get home for a little down time.  Though we didn't get a mile down the road before he was back to discussing details of the ceremony.  Fine with me if he wants to keep talking details.  I won't discourage any dialogue I don't have to pry from his lips with the jaws of life.  

        When we got home, I had planned on doing some baking as I have approximately ten pounds of zucchini that needs tending to, but instead jumped straight on the world wide web and started researching paper products and options for our plan of attack on our save the dates and eventually our invites.  I have to say I at least accomplished deciding on an envelope that we can use for all items (std, invites and thank yous) which will be great.  And to stick with our goal of being environmentally friendly they are 100% recycled.  Just have to get past the fact that I have to pay for them and they're as good as in the mail.

        So we were fairly successful today as we decided on a layout for both the save the dates and invites and about half of the details for the ceremony.  I think the next goal we need to tackle is a time line.  We need to figure out what needs to be done when and how much it's all going to cost.  So stay tuned for that, and see you next time.
