Cherish the time whether great or small...

Todd has been supervising at the Newton post office for over a month now and finding time for each other besides "how was your day?" and a quick dinner before bed. Although it isn't the time that I would love to be spending together I am thankful for having time at all.

We finally got to spend some quality time together this weekend being it was a 3-day weekend. We did the usual sunday church and lunch with my parents and we finally took down our Christmas decorations and tree yesterday! Today consisted of a whole lot of nothing and relaxing on the couch. When we got our butts moving we got out and went to the eye doctor for Todd and ran some errands.

The time we spent together this weekend didn't consist of anything exciting or interesting but it was just time spent together, with the one I love.

No matter what goes on around us or the millions of things going on in our lives, take time to appreciate and cherish the moments you have with the ones you love.

Where to start?!?!

So it's finally the new year so that means we are able to start wedding planning...but exactly where are we supposed to start?! There's so much to decide on and think about my brain is just constantly going of things that we need to accomplish.

My parents decided to buy "Wedding Planning for Dummies" and were gracious enough to get us a copy. Hoping that it comes in ASAP! I have looked through thousands (yes thousands) of different pictures and ideas on "the knot" and have gotten some ideas brewing. I found some cute ways to incorporate Todd's job working at the Post Office and me being a school teacher. All of my ideas seem to follow along the lines of Vintage Country. Simple Elegance. Colors have been narrowed down too. We like plum/eggplant and greens (sage, olives). These purples and greens I like.

We decided to start with one thing and focus on that. This weeks task at hand is narrowing down the guest list. We feel that the majority of things we need to decide on we need to know numbers first. So by Sunday we said we would pretty much have the guest list figured out so we can have a rough number and go from there. 

But I am just trying to take the time (with all of my bridal magazines surrounding me) and just enjoy planning our wedding. It's OUR day and I can't wait to be the future Mrs. Goulds! : )
