YippiE!

I ordered our wedding invitations yesterday! I should be receiving the proofs via email by the end of this week. Their website says to allow 2-3 days for production, then most likely 4-6 business days for delivery, which puts us in the middle of March when we should receive them. After we get them in the mail I have to figure out who is going to address all of the invitations.

My friend from work, (yes I know I made friends here I love this place) Deirdre said Kinko’s will give me a quote online and then I can go from there. I went to this place my other friend Jamie from work (I know two friends, and women) recommended I go called The Paper Source. They had really awesome paper, envelopes, and really all sorts of trinkets there. I will have to look into how much it will cost if I get them to print our menus and/or addresses for the invitations.

Oh yea and Saturday Cherie and I are going to look at flowers! PS. I cannot believe its almost March!

Floors and doors

I know I promised I would put pictures of our floors up last week but I completely forgot to take pictures this past weekend. Here is what our floors look like!!!!

They look so amazing; I can’t wait to start putting furniture in our house. We are almost ready to order our kitchen cabinets! After we put in the order for our cabinets it should only take them 10 days to come in! Then we can tear out the rest of the lower cabinets and start running some electrical and all that good stuff.

Last weekend we also put the new doors on all the bedrooms, and by “we” I mean Erik and Luke. I had the day off Friday so I went to our house and painted the doors.

Look under "floors" for more pictures.

Busy weekend

Erik and I work very well with deadlines. We told ourselves we had to finish all the painting upstairs by the end of the weekend and we did! With the help of both of our moms we finished painting all the trim, the closest doors and all the windows upstairs. We also cleaned and vacuumed quite a bit.

Here are a few pictures from the weekend, put I also put more pictures up under “House”.

I was in charge of painting the upper part of the closets and taking the doors down....

Erik hates painting but he was determined to finish this weekend.

Here is Bob painting the closet doors in the garage.

Because of the beautiful 62 degree weather we turned on our pond to see it if worked.

Our “Pool boy” even came over to clean the “pool”/pond.

OH YEA, yesterday we went to Haverty’s and bought our couch, coffee table and a rug. We don’t have to start paying for it until it gets delivered (we are hoping to be done with the kitchen so we can have it delivered in April).

Stuff and things

2-6-09

I put new pictures under "Floors" and "Our House"

-Making my to-do-list shorter!-
I booked our DJ and our Caterer. The caterer for our wedding is going to be R&R catering. We have put together a really delicious menu which includes a Persian dish (not as great as my mom and grandma make it but it will still be really good).

Also we have reserved the Unitarian Universalist Church in Arlington for our wedding ceremony. And we asked Hyojon’s dad (Uncle John, as we like to call him) to be the one who marries us. Now I have to call the Arlington courthouse and see how he can go about getting his license. Seven more months until the big day!!!!


-House update-.

This past weekend we asked Bethany’s dad to come over so Erik could ask him a few questions. He is also helping us get a better quote for our kitchen cabinets! Other than that we have been painting up a storm upstairs. We plan on being completely finished with the painting upstairs by the end of this weekend. I have Friday off so I will be there all day working on it.

My cousin’s uncle, Saeed, is coming over to our house on Tuesday to start working on our floors!!!!! We are so excited, thank you again. I will put pictures up as soon as they are done. I realize I have been slacking on the pictures.
