I'm sorry for not blogging in a while. Most of you know that I am in teachers college and for the past month I have been on my first practicum. I am back at school now and have a little bit more time on my hands. Since I last blogged a couple things have happened. Ross and I had our interview with the church. It went well. Pastor Dave asked us about our family backgrounds and such and just got to know us a bit better. We should hear by the new years whether the church elders have approved us and we are officially able to get married there. We also have the opportunity to get the pastor that was at the church when Ross was a kid, which made Ross very happy.
In other news, I got a funny text message from mom on friday night. She asked if she was going to get in trouble for buying her dress. This was like deja vu for me because I sent her and Karla the same message when I bought mine. I assured her that we wouldnt be mad at her if she liked the dress and she was gettign it for a good price it was fine. Lunkily a girl I know from girl guides as a child was in the same store and she took a picture of the 2 dresses mom was trying to decide between and sent me them so I could help her make her decision. I think the dress looks great, at least from the picture, although Karla assures me it looks good in real life too. Mom will be dazzling in her purple dress for the wedding. 2 dresses down 6 to go!!! Why does this not feel like as big of an accomplishment as it is? We got the hard ones out of the way at least.
We have also gotten our engagement pictures back in the past month. Klair, Klairisa Grace Photography, did an amazing job. I love soooo many of them. She was able to capture Ros and I beautifully. I have posted a bunch of the ones I like to the wedding website so you can have a look. I should book Klair for the wedding before soemone else snatches her up. Can't wait to get some printed and put them in frames.
I am looking forward to the holiday season and being able to see the whole bridal party. Half my girls are out of town and I miss them. I am looking forward to our bridal party dinner when the whole bridal party can finally meet each other and get to know one another. I'm sure there will be lots of stories to tell about this night, some probably accompanied with photos. Well if I don't blog before then, I will have lots of stories to tell. Only 417 days!
