Back from the dead

Thanks to my lovely fiancee, here I am -- back from a much needed blog hiatus. I believe his direct quote was, "You don't have to blog about the wedding. Blog about the snow! And how much it sucks!"

Sitting on our comfy couch with some toaster streudel in hand and no plans to go outside today... well the new fallen snow doesn't suck so much. It's actually kind of pretty.

The wedding planning is going along smoothly, although be it at a turtle's pace-- our date isn't until June 12, 2010, and given the fact that we have both the church and reception hall secured, I'm in no big rush to hop on the planning bandwagon until about June. The fairy tale wedding I've always dreamed of as a little girl has morphed into something entirely different than the 7-year-old Amy would have ever expected. And when I figure out exactly what that vision is, I'll let you know-- for now I'm trying to figure it out myself.

It's amazing what adulthood, a horrendous economy and a diagnosis of cancer in your family can do to put things in perspective.

I'm glad to see a new blog. You have a good man if he encourages you to blog. ;)

Justin and I have long discussed our wedding (though we're not engaged and aren't planning on marrying any time too soon...). And even before the recession really set in, we decided that we're probably going to do it really small. The only thing that will be 'big' is the reception. All we really care to do is make sure that our friends and family will come together to celebrate with us. We have even discussed getting married at one of the chapels in Vegas (since we're here and all) and going home to do the reception.

Good luck. I'm sure it'll be beautiful and wonderful. :)
