blank...

as in - wedding planning. my mind is blanking out on any wedding planning currently. i think it'll get back into the routine as soon as halloween is over. the past couple of weeks have been absolute chaos, and i'm not really sure why. i guess it's just hard to live an hour fm just about (not all!) everything that you consider familiar - friends, fiancee, places you like to frequent.

so when i get a chance to catch up with any of my friends that i haven't seen in forever, i'm game! so the past couple of weeks (since last monday) have included: (warning! lots of unhealthy food involved...not good!)

• skipping carpool many days,
• dinner at applebees one night catching up on the past year (we canNOT wait that long next time, laura!),
• dinner with fabulous fruit tea and desserts with the future in-laws,
• ordering a david's bridal dress for engagement pics (i know, i know - way too early! but i LOVE the dress!!) picture, anyone? granted the one they had at the store was WAY too big, but this is a picture of it (it's better than the pic i took of the dress in the magazine!)

• dinner at logan's with one of my friends who is also a fellow engage-ee (i'm going to be one of her bridesmaids!!) discussing wedding plans
• dinner at capt d's with my park bff jackie to discuss halloween plans and then went to see vampire's assistant (totally recommend it!) and then for pumpkin lattes afterward (if you don't like coffee, i do NOT recommend)
• hanging with thomas just doing nothing and absolutely loving it
• seeing a real life bayonet that should have been used during wwII
• purchasing stuff to create a homemade halloween 'witch' costume
• slumber party at my MOH's house just hanging out and eating homemade pizza! yum!
• eating lunch yesterday with an old old navy friend and her new hubby at crack baby
• dinner tonight with one of tom's greatest friends and his wife
• dinner and a little shopping with my newfound friend (she was tom's friend first) natalia! :)
• treat day at work on thursday - must remember COOKIES!!
• halloween at the group camp setup on friday after work
• saturday - HALLOWEEN at montgomery bell!! it's free! bring everyone...starts at 6 o'clock!

so, hopefully after ALL of this, things will be semi-back to normal and i can resume wedding planning! and not running myself ragged! :) but i'm so blessed to have such great friends that i can keep up with - granted it's not usually on a very normal basis - but that's what makes it so much fun!

so, hopefully after reading all of this, you'll understand why i haven't been posting EVERYday! ;)
