its so warm outside that it just can't be october...but it says so on my calendar and my calendar is usually right about those things...like the date...anyhow...mjk and i are still battling our colds. mine is mostly an annoying head cold that makes me sneeze a lot and feels like there are cotton balls stuffed into my brain...i have been wondering if they could be allergies but since mjk is sick too i figured that would be too much of a coincidence. my hope is that by the weekend we will both be back to normal. we have gotten some positive feedback from family members and out of towners about our save the date cards. it is nice to feel like all your efforts paid off! and plus we were just so proud of ourselves. in other wedding news, mjk and i met with the rev. from the church we want to be married in. it was an interesting meeting. we went to a restaurant by his house...not too far from ours...and talked about a lot of things that we are not used to talking about ...what our religious beliefs are, why we want to get married, why we want to get married in the church...questions i was no really ready for. of course, i should have known better i mean what else would he want to talk about. but it was still strange. since it is a multidenominational church they really dont turn anyone away but we have to make the decision if this is the man and the place and the style with which we want to get married. i must say it is more fun trying on all those dresses but this is a very important decision. speaking of dresses did i mention that i bought one! i cant remember if i already posted that somewhere, but i did. yippee! also i met with a florist yesterday from the shop fleur in logan square...a recommendation by my brother. the woman that i met with, kelly, was very nice and very responses to the ideas that i had. she promised to have a quote to me by tuesday with difference pricing options and variations. i am excited to hear from her. she is a bit funkier than the other florist i met with and maybe she will have some new ideas for me! i guess that is about it. mjk and i are celebrating our one year anniversary this weekend...very exciting...and today is his third anniversary at his job! good work!
