Change

A few BIG changes have come about lately, and we are way excited about it! for starters, we have moved the wedding up a LOT! our new date is August 14, 2009! We had initially decided to wait until next summer to save some money and whatnot...but after a long discussion not only with each other, but with our parents, we moved the date to this year! Plus, one of the benefits is of course only paying for one apartment versus two and I can get in-state tuition, which adds to about $10,000 a school year! That being said, we have obviously had to get on a move with planning. There is SO much to do! We are at a standstill with our venue, which sucks...because we can't get invites printed until we have a set place! Other than that, we have pictures to take next weekend, and my dress to still buy! Other things are coming together pretty well :)

On a different note, I have a new job! I applied to serve at Applebee's...good thing I did, because I was let go for the summer from my other job after the Dean decided that the budget couldn't afford student worker paychecks. So I have a new job, have become certified to serve alcohol and now go in for some training and starting off stuff today!!! I hope this job is flexible with my needs, seeing I need lots of time to get planning done! Luckily, the place never opens before 11 so I always have mornings!

So there is obviously a ton of change going on around here, not to mention unending phone calls and I'm sure soon a job that is pretty demanding, but I know God won't put us through something that we aren't capable of handling :) so say a prayer for us, we will be needing it!

Life Lately

Summer is officially here for the both of us now. This past weekend we were both working an air show called Thunder on the Rio Grande. It was organized by where Steven works, so he was there and has been working on this event for MONTHS and I signed up to volunteer for some TEP recommendations, so we were there ALL weekend, but now things have settled down again! I'm sure neither of us want to talk about the air show anymore, so we'll move on to other things.

Well, I need a job. The place where I am now has been on the fence about keeping me this summer due to funding issues and to be honest, I am completely frustrated with the whole process so I am trying to find something else to move on to at least for the summer! I have tried Craigslist and a few on-campus postings, but nothing has really come up so I got some advice to try and wait tables, so I just might! I have never worked in food service, so give me some advice! :) So I am praying that something turns up soon... :(

We take our NMTA test on Saturday morning, results in a few weeks...we HAVe to post those results in our TEP portfolios to get into the program, so pray we are prepared and rested and do well :) otherwise we're here a semester longer, which sucks.

And always some wedding stuff! I have found the bridesmaid/flower girl dresses and also something GREAT for my mom to wear! We have started our guest list and found invites, favors, flowers and a few other decorations for the reception/ceremony! Things are slowly coming together, which is ok since we have till next July! :)

Anyways, just a small update on the craziness that is our life, as always! sorry if I wrote a novel today...
