Back in the Groove!

This will hopefully be a short blog...but who knows with me.
Today was Inauguration Day. My school was nice enough to allow us to watch footage all day with the kids if we wanted to. We did a lot of presidential activities and did watch the Inauguration and I think it was very educational for the kids. I was pretty excited about today. I have been a large supporter of Barack Obama since I saw him speak at the Democratic convention for the Kerry campaign. I'm pretty excited to see how things will change throughout his presidency. I just hope he leave behind a legacy and really accomplishes what he has set out to do.
Apart from the new President of the United States, this year has been going well thus far. I have planned a little more for the wedding. I should be getting the wedding invitations in a couple of weeks. They were a steal! I think they are pretty gorgeous and so CHEAP, which makes things so much better. I guess we will see what I get when the invites arrive, but I'm pretty excited about them. My wedding dress arrived over break...it came in two weeks (CRAZY!). It is hanging in the closet in the guest room now. Every now and then I like to go in there look at it...and kiss the packaging! I've only tried it on twice since I got it, so I'm doing pretty well! I found a florist during the bridal show this past weekend. She is super sweet and I will be meeting with her soon to see what she can do. I'm still in need of a DJ, but I'm sure I'll find one soon. I don't know if I mentioned that I found a photographer before but I did: Larry Gindhart. My awesome coworkers have really been helping out. Pepelea really got me excited today when she showed me these table card holders that are shaped like a bride and groom's torso. I told her....I'll use it! I think that is all I have to update for now. I can't believe I'm getting married in a little more than 5 MONTHS! Crazy. I'll try to update more...now...off to the restroom. Oh by the way....lost 3.5lbs so far for the year 2009!
