I had my first Pumpkin Spice Latte of the season today and my down comforter is no longer residing at the foot of my bed, but rather nestled up cozily around me at night. Ah yes, fall has arrived. We are yet another season closer to the wedding and life has officially kicked in to high (super high) gear. I am writing this now because if I read another nursing journal in which I get to the end and realize that I have no idea what I just read, I may drop out. And it's only week 2. So life updates first, then wedding updates.
Life updates:
Matt is in his third week of law school. Monday marked one month if you include orientation. He loves it and has learned a lot already. He is a case briefing machine. He is exhausted, but seems to be very on top of things and doing well!
I am in my second week of my NP doctorate program. We do the doctorate content of the program first, followed by the NP content so that the NP stuff is fresh in our minds for boards. I am really feeling the whole doctorate thing so far. They are all about being "scholarly". We read and write. A lot. And talk a lot. People are so passionate about things I haven't even considered. It's where I belong though :)
Matt has leased a 2012 Fusion and the Sonoma is going into retirement. "Gone, but not forgotten." That 'Noma is what pulled me. He had to get the door for me (from the inside because the outside handle was broken). It must be love!
The lease on my Escape is up in October and I am looking forward to a new car myself! Not sure what I will be getting yet, but it will be a Ford something.
Wedding updates:
The biggest update is that our wedding party has grown!! We have gone from 8 people on each side to 9 people. Upon realizing that it's insane that my brother NOT be a groomsman in our wedding when we have always been so close, we moved him from usher to groomsman (appropriately so). So my brother makes 9 groomsman. Then I thought about what girls have been especially supportive to our relationship and that I feel close to and thought of Sarah Condon. Sarah makes 9 bridesmaids. :) I don't think I have updated this since we asked Kylie and Kellen (Phil and Sarah's son and daughter) to be flowergirl and ring bearer too. So we have the whole Condon family!! And we will stop adding now. Promise. It's so hard when we have so many FABULOUS people in our lives!!
It's getting harder for me to choose what to put in here without giving away too much about the wedding. So let's just say... We have picked our bridesmaid dresses. I have found my wedding shoes!!! My mom, my aunts, and my future mother-in-law have already begun some shower planning. And we have set the date and location of our engagement pictures! They are being done October 7 and let's just say they will be "Big". :)
