It's been a while since I've updated this site. A lot has been going on, but I'll give you the brief rundown. Tomorrow is Chris and I's 1 year dating anniversary! We have two plans to make tomorrow special and it all depends on the rain to which plan we take, but either way, I'm excited about it being a year already. This Saturday, 3 of my 5 bridesmaids are going to look at dresses. We have to have them ordered before everyone goes back to college this fall because we want the dresses in time for the wedding and mom (and I) dont want to have to worry about getting everyone together in time to order the dresses around or after Christmas and still have them in time for June 12th! So, we're going Saturday and there's a dress I picked out that everyone seems to love so I guess we'll see what happens when they try it and others on. I haven't gotten my dress yet, but I can go at any time before Christmas to find a dress for me and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have to drive like 3 hours away to a David's Bridal or something to find mine 'cause I've already picked one out that I like from there. So anyways, umm... our wedding site has changed too. The place was shut down due to the guy running on an agricultural license rather than a commercial one since like the 80's! So, we're gonna have it at Chris's church now which I'm really excited about because it'll be inside and we won't have to worry about a a plan B if it rains and it's a really nice, big church... so it's all good. Hmmm... I think that's all I have to say for now, but as things change I'll keep you posted!

Just a quick update... We have the site booked for our wedding day. It's in Greencastle (pictures are in an entry below). They help set up chairs for the ceremony outside and a carraige ride is included among other things such as the beautiful running fountains and such. The reception will be held in the building shown in the pictures. We're working on finding a photographer now. We talked to a lady a couple weeks ago, but weren't too impressed. We're hoping the prices of Youngblood aren't too outrageous 'cause I think we may go with him. He's very good... a lot of people Chris and I know have gone with him (including Vicki; his sister)... and he has a lot of proofs because he's gone digital... and the proofs are online for a while for whoever to buy. I think that's neat. So anyways, things are going pretty smoothly. =)

I have a lot to talk about tonight... or shall I say this morning?! It's almost 1 am, but I just got home from the movies and I wanted to add some new pictures of Chris and I's new arrival to the family, before I went to bed. Haha, that's right! Click here to see the darling new baby!
Haha, wasn't what you thought now was it?! The second thing I wanted to mention before I hit the sack was that Chris and I's engagement was in the paper this morning! It was quite exciting! Well, that's it for the news. I'm heading to bed.

It's midnight!!!... In Decemeber!!! I can't believe this year is almost to an end. There's so much to look forward to in the rest of this year though... finishing a semester of school, Christmas, New Years. Hmmm... I could go on about that thought, but all I really wanted to say was that I changed the site meter and so it starts anew today. Goodnight!

Hey! Sorry I haven't added anything new to the site for a month; there's not anything really new happening exactly that I want to post on this website, but we may have found our wedding site. I really like it and would love to have it there, but I'm not as sure about Chris's opinion. He says he really likes it too, but we haven't given a definate yes or no, I guess. At the beginning of the new year, we're gonna call and check on prices and such. The place is gorgeous and they hold a lot of weddings there, but I think it's also kinda expensive. My mom took a few pictures of the place, but there not as good as seeing it in person and during like the summer or something when they have it blossoming with flowers and the trees are full. They have a large fountain and a building in which to hold the wedding ceremony if it rains and if not or even if it does rain then we can also use the building for the reception. Here's a few pictures of what the place looks like.

I can't wait to finalize it and everything else, but we still have a year and six months. I have the dress styles picked out, but next Spring my mom and I are going to go around to a couple different places looking for dresses. We're also turning in our wedding engagement announcement next week to the local newspaper. Things are coming along just nicely. :)

Ok, I just wanted to let you know that I don't know why this site's counter is like seriously high. The counter's homepage said I had to update the code so that it would display the hit counter number, but when I changed it, it's showing a lot higher hit count than it should be... so I'm just hoping it fixes itself in time. If not, I'll just take it off or find something else. Yes, I know, whoopie news! Eh? I'm sorry, but it was bothering me so I figured I would just let you know of this so you didn't wonder. Anywho, that's all I have for now, so have a great rest of the weekend!

Hello! Sorry I can't say that I have a lot more to add or say, but I've got a lot of ideas brewing. Crazy thought. =) I did add another page for various other pictures that have been taken of us, but so far I only have three up.
Chris and I will probably be making a final decision on the wedding site soon so we'll have to let you all know about that in case your curious. For now, nothing has been decided, but we'll keep you posted. Have a wonderful week!

Good morning! I added 17 pictures last night and tried to make them the right size so that they would look good, but I may have a little more tweeking (sp?) to do. Vicki took 5 rolls of us at City Park so we're picking out our favorites for our site. I guess that is all I wanted to say so I better get going to class.

Hiya! Just wanted to write a quick hello to those who have never been to Chris and I's website. I just finished creating this site a few minutes ago so I guess this will be temporarily new to everyone! Right? Anyways, We created this site for family and friends to see recent pictures of us and get to know us better. I'm off to a slow start, but there will be a lot more pictures and information about us posted soon. (And we're sorry about any advertisements that may pop up... can't quite help that.)
Onto more exciting news... Chris and I are recently engaged... he just asked me this past Wednesday. We're both very happy and very excited about planning our June 12, 2005 wedding. Please keep us in your prayers. We hope you enjoy our site and feel free to leave us messages in our guestbook.
