quick update

it's difficult to keep up with a blog when you work full time, an avid sports fanatic, planning a wedding, or a loyal family member. unfortunately I'm (d) all of the above. if I'm not exhausted from working all day I'm watching football. if there's no football on, I'm trying to gather things for a wedding. if I'm not planning a wedding, I have dinner plans or something planned with my parents. so time for me to sit down for a good period of time to write out an interesting blog with substance is limited. and finishing half written posts I've written is even more difficult. ahh!

so, since I'm short on time here's a quick list of the most exciting and/or important things that happened in my life since my last post (September 2nd).

1. Chris and I finally decided to take the leap and get married and had my lovely SIL take some pictures of us for save the dates.
2. doctors did some testing on Chris to see if something could be done with his epilepsy (he'll be going back soon for more to determine if he could do surgery or some other alternative to stop his seizures).
3. booked a venue & picked a date for our upcoming wedding!
4. went camping with the fam and we determined that Ginger and my parent's dog, Cheyenne, will never be friends again.
5. thought I was going to lose my job or my mind from all the forecasting I was sucking at.
6. almost lost the date & venue we picked due to a double-booking issue (luckily we booked first!)
7. sent out our save the dates (no turning back now).

also, if you're a photographer or photography lover and can't leave your camera at home you should head over to Danielle's blog at Sometimes Sweet. she's hosting a wonderful giveaway for these gorgeous and amazing camera bags. I'm hoping to snag one for the before mentioned lovely SIL to give her an adorable bag to safely hold her camera while she's out and about. so go on over & check it out!
