Let’s dust this thing off already

Wow, I know it has been a while since I’ve last blogged and that is completely my fault. I just didn’t feel like blogging and if I did, I didn’t have much to say. I’ve been struggling to keep up with my life and schoolwork all at the same time so I apologize for my absence. Since tomorrow marks the day of my only final and I just have one extra credit assignment to complete, I thought it’d be a good day to work on my new theme I designed and created myself. I really like it and how cute are the snow couple? It was fun creating the snow couple in Photoshop and Selena helped add suggestions to them since evidently it is her duty to watch over me while I’m doing anything in Photoshop!

In other news, Jonathan and I have been talking a lot about getting married and our future. It is so weird that I already feel so at home with him and our lives are already intertwined. I have a lot of planning going on in the next couple of months since I already know what my Christmas present is from him … a ring. :) Yup, we’re getting married! I am so excited and overjoyed you have no idea. I’ve waited for this to happen for as long as I can remember. I don’t even have to think of whether I’d say yes or not because there is no question about whether I’d marry him or not since I can’t picture my future without him in it. We go together so well and everything about him compliments me and vice versa. I have been kind of hush hush about who I tell since I haven’t gotten the ring yet. It evidently will be given to me this week since he’s already told me he can’t wait til Christmas to give it to me. I swear as soon as he gets it it’s going to burn a hole in his pocket until he asks me so to speak. I think he is just as excited about all of this as I am which means a lot.

My mom called my aunt to ask about the church since we are getting married this May. We picked May because he has a sick grandma and wants her to be there. May also is 5 and a half months away so that should be enough time to plan a wedding. I am so stuck on what colors and what invitations and all those other little tidbits it’s not funny. I have no idea when it comes to the colors. I love greens and blues so I was looking at a palette earlier today that I really liked. Thanks to the Flights of Fancy blog, I’ve narrowed it down to three contenders. Any opinions or suggestions from my lovely viewers? It will be a Spring wedding and I’d like my wedding to be nice but yet affordable since we’re trying to pay for a lot of it ourselves. I also want to make my own invitations since I will have the time to do so and I just got a new printer that kicks so much ass that it has been named “Kate’s Awesome Machine,” lol. So here are the top color palette contenders:

Well with that all said, I need to head to bed. I have to get up early to do some last minute studying before my final in the afternoon. I pray that I do good on this final so I can hopefully pull off an A. I’m sure I’ll have more to blog about tomorrow. Also, check out my flickr photos since I finally got around to uploading a few. I’ll also be adding more content to the site as well. Also, my 101 in 1001 will be redone since I never even did anything and I feel I need a new list for my new life! So until then, later loves!

  1. I’ve been wanting to totally re-do my blog for a while. I need to re-do my 101 in 1001 list too, as it was kinda a “set it and forget it” thing for me. Again, congrats on the pending engagement! It’s so cute that he couldn’t wait until he had the ring, and has already told you. As for your color choices, I like the middle palette best. Oh, and I planned our wedding in like 3 months, so 5 should be good!

  2. Oh man! Wow! That’s a lot of stuff! Hehe! Congratulations, and it’ll be SOO much more exciting when you get the ring! =)

    Good luck with planning the wedding!! And yep, I like the middle one the best too. Hehe.

    Good luck with that final too!

  3. Wowza! First of all cute new layout.

    May is going to come SO FAST. May is also my birthday month and that’s totally awesome. Hehe. I love all 3 of those pallettes. The last 2 are my favorite. The last one is probably my super favorite. :)

  4. Oh, and I planned my wedding in like 6 months but I took my sweet ass time. You’ll be fine.

  5. You layout is so cute! Congrats on getting engaged!

  6. Love the new theme :) . I can’t wait until we can hang out again and just laugh our asses off :) . I do plan on helping you with the wedding while I’m down there for a week.

    And I need to re-do my 101 in 1001 days as well. There are stuff on there that should be mark off and it hasn’t been touched yet.

    Take care hun and talk to you soon :) .

  7. Congratulations! That’s so amazing! Getting married! That’s so exciting! :)
