update!

So I know I haven't posted in over a month but you will have to forgive me because August of 2009 was one of the busiest months of my life. Randy and I have officially moved from our tiny, one bedroom apartment to a 3 bedroom row house with a backyard. We gave ourselves a few weeks to transition from one place to the other and Randy's parents came for about a week to help us out which was a life saver. We are now completely moved in to the new place, however, there are boxes aplenty that need to be unpacked.

On top of us moving, 2 of my friends got married this month. Michelle (a close friend I had church school with until we were confirmed in the 10th grade) got married back home in Dannemora, New York at the same church where Randy and I will be getting married. Courtney (friend from college, post college roommate, and bridesmaid) got married a week ago in Congers, NY. A bunch of our college friends from Siena were there so it was a lot of fun to see everyone.

August also held two back to back weekends of my bridal showers. My first bridal shower was in Danvers, MA and was thrown by Randy's mom, Donna, in his Granny's garden. It was a beautiful day and a nice chance for me to see his side of the family again. My second shower was thrown by my Mother in Dannemora, New York. I got to see a lot of my Aunts and family friends that I haven't seen in a while which was very nice. Both my Mom and Donna went above and beyond anything I could have expected for my showers and I feel very grateful.

Also during the August Mayhem, Randy and I managed to get all of the invitations printed and sent. Randy used his handiwork on the computer yet again and the invitations turned out beautifully. Since Randy was on call every third night in August, my friends Michelle and Karen helped me assemble all the invitations. So now we have started getting our response cards back and its crazy to think that this wedding really is right around the corner. We are so excited that our day is almost here! Can't wait to see everyone there!!
