Okay so snag in the NYC plans....my friend's sister who was going with us has a class starting on the 30th and she can't come anymore. We don't want to pay even more than we already were...boo hoo. Maybe another time. :( :(

So on to more positive things. I had the end of my 12th week of Weight Watchers and my total losses add up to 19.4 lbs!!! I am so excited about this! :) This is the only thing that has really worked for me and I'm loving watch the weight come off. Wedding plans have been picking up again and I have booked transportation for our wedding! We need an extreme amount of seating because our wedding party is large. Anyways, I sent out our xmas cards with our save-the-dates in them....I finally finished them! whew...it was a lot of work, but totally worth it. I am also excited about Christmas coming...I love the holidays and watching people open presents!

I finally finished the Twilight series and to anyone out there who hasn't read it, you NEED to! It was absolutely amazing to read and I was obsessed. Poor Steve, I think I was neglecting him a bit with my insane need to constantly read these books. The 4th book was the longest, but like the others before it, I couldn't put it down! Team Edward! :)

NYC BABY!

So I just received word that my awesome friend Michelle and I are now officially booked on a vacation to New York City over New Year's Eve! New Year's Eve in Rockefeller Center will be insanely great! :) There are so many things that I want to see and do there, it will be impossible to fit it all in. For sure, I will be going on the Sex and the City tour to some of the show's film spots, the Empire State building, Statue of Liberty, and the Met. I also want to go to the Guggenheim and I want to visit 5th Avenue stores to window shop and the cheap street vendors by Central Park. I have tried to get tickets to Rachael Ray, Today show, Live with Regis and Kellly, David Letterman, The View, and Martha Stewart. We shall see if I am lucky enough to get some tickets.

I leave for NYC on Dec. 29th...so much to plan in a short period of time....plus trying to plan wedding stuff and to do school work. TOO MUCH! EEK!

Our First Blog.....

So all I hear is that blogging is the new rage! Well, I will give a try then! I guess our lives are pretty crazy right now. Steve's business has really taken off in Reedsburg and he has done better than he thought in the 1st six months of business. For those that don't know, he started V.I.P. Tree Service in Reedsburg, WI in April of 2008. He has been busy, plus he is still working for Asplundh full time during the week (Mon.-Thurs.).

I have been busy with school, wedding planning, and keeping up with friends, family, and cleaning the house!!! Haha. Wedding planning is going okay...I think I have everything done that I am supposed to at this point. I am in the process of finishing our save the dates and thinking about invitations. Ahhhh.....invitations, so many choices. Oh well, plus I have been busy buying Christmas gifts and scrapbooking! I also decided that this pesky weight I have been carrying around since college needed to goooooooooooooo! I joined Weight Watchers this fall and I have lost 10.8 lbs. so far. It really works, no joke. I thought that I wouldn't be able to watch what I ate and write things down, but after the first week it has become habit. The 1st trip to the grocery store after I started the program was a pain in the you-know-where! It took me 2 hours to find foods that I would like and could make for Steve and I (cooking for two on Weight Watchers=tough business)!

Anyways, this was fun, I think I could start to get into this blogging thing! :)
