Wedding Wednesday

We are getting married in the Catholic Church.  We just completed Pre-Cana, and we are now looking into the ceremony details.  The priest just gave us a book to look through for readings, music, etc. 

Any Catholics out there have any favorite readings, music, etc?  This is one area I am not as comfortable with (probably bc I don't have a planner helping me each step of the way). 

Sweet Home Chicago Part 2..

Well folks, I just got back from 1 trip so far this summer.  Sweet home Chicago!   You can read all about part 1 here!

After all the fun, we started out Monday strong.  We went to our food tasting!  Oh my, that definitely put a dent in the diet plan.  No need to worry.  Hopped back on that train tonight.  Then the guy and I watched a movie.  A great Monday..for sure!

Tuesday was also jammed packed with planning.  We met our photographer, and designed our invitations!  Then we met our priest for dinner, and started the process for the ceremony.  Turns out, not only did I know the priest, my guy did too!  He was the parish priest for his first communion.  Small world. 

Wednesday we picked out the cake.  Cake tasting.  Oh my goodness.  Amazing.  Then, we met with the florist.  I dropped the guy back at home, and did a makeup trial.  Love the makeup artist.  She was absolutely amazing. 

Stay tuned for some more of my time in Chicago..more pictures too!

Summer Days..

We had an awesome day so far...another post for another time.  But..I thought I would share these two pics of the dogs.  Nothing says summer days like these two!!!

Wedding Wednesday

This is a big week for us planning wise.  Imagine planning a wedding in 5 days?  That is basically what we are doing.  But it is ok:)  We'll get there.

We did our tasting this week, and all I have to say is that our food is going to be amazing!  From the apps to the meal, there will be no disappointments!

Here is a sneak peak at some of the desserts we tasted!

We picked 4 of these:)

Sweet Home Chicago!

So I am back in town to take care of some much needed wedding planning, and drop the monkey off back home.  My work schedule right now is too hectic to have her in Florida with me.  It is just not fair to her. 

I was so glad to get home on Friday! 

Saturday was Pre-Cana.  We were definitely the couple with the most time until their wedding #militaryproblems

Sunday was a relaxing day.  We walked the dogs in the park, and I took my sister and her kids to lunch.  It was her and one of the little's bdays', and the older one graduated from grade school!!
One of my bff's came over later in the day, and we watched the Hawks.

Not bad for my first weekend back!!!

So happy in my last state of the drive from FL to IL!

Cutest 2.5 year old ever.

I am so happy! and suck at taking selfies.  But that is ok.  It isn't going on my resume. 

Love my neighborhood!
