And the planning continues!

I thought I would give my single reader an update on how the wedding planning is going. So far we have the church, the reception hall, dresses, tuxes, and reception dinner is set. Tomorrow we are going to Huntington to meet with a friend who is going to make the food for the reception, the wedding cake, and the wedding flowers. I still need to confirm the photographer and reception decorations.

This weekend also starts our premarital counseling, which is being done in a group setting and not individual. I wonder what we will cover?

BSU Biggest Loser Update

It has now been 2 1/2 weeks since I have started BSU biggest loser. Although I have only lost 2 pounds I can feel the changes from working out more and eating healthier. I can now stay on the eliptical for a half hour at full power, where before I was lucky to stay on for 10min. I wish that I could see the changes more, but I will keep working at it! My goal is to be able to were a bikini at my honeymoon! :)

The stress of dress shopping

This Saturday my bridesmaids and I went to David's Bridal in Ft Wayne to find the dresses that they would wear for the wedding. Going into this day I thought it would be fun and similar to prom dress shopping, but it was a bit more stressful. It was hard for the girls to find a dress that they liked in the color I had chosen. Then my aunt insisted that everyone have shoes that were dyed to match. That presented a problem in itself. In the end everyone found a dress and matching shoes, but even though I didn't even try on dresses it was stressful enough. After all this planning and shopping I am starting wish I just eloped!

BSU Biggest Loser

After being a huge fan of the tv show "Biggest Loser" I jumped on the chance to participate in the Ball State version. We (me and 3 other girls) meet 3 times a week for an hour and workout with a personal trainer. I am so glad that I signed up, this is exactly what I needed. I know that I need to workout to lose weight but I had no motivation before. Now I have a team who is counting on me and a trainer who will hunt me down if I don't show. I hope that what I learn in the next 6 weeks I will be able to continue when I return to Warsaw! Wish me luck!

Back to the grind

Today was my first day back in Muncie, starting classes like I never left. Already I have 2 tests this week and a presentation to work on. You have no idea how hard it was for me to come back here, back to studying and lack of close friends. I would much rather be a home planning my wedding and spending time with Mike, but I know I have no choice but to push my way through the next 8 weeks.

Spring Break bliss?

My spring break will be here in just one more day. For most people spring break is a time to relax and jet off to some warm destination. But this year, spring break for me will be an extended study session. For some reason this semester I can not seem to get my head into school and my grades have been suffering due to it. So this spring break I am going north and sitting at home with a hot cocoa and 3 large science textbooks. I keep telling myself that if I can just last the next 8 weeks it will all be over. Thank goodness!!!
