Everything is in full swing!

School has started today. I'm in a computer lab waiting for my next class, considering the entire first week is kinda a joke. After about 15 minutes of introductions and getting signed in, passing out papers, the instructors let us go. This semester should be an easy one to get back in the swing of things. That should leave plenty of time for wedding planning.

We already have a place and date. The cedar rock inn in tulsa, on the 19th...not the 20th like we first had hoped. We put down a deposit on that, and I already have my dress. So the hard stuff is all done. Joe and I also started our counseling, and it has really brought us together as a couple. So the planning is on its way too.

I'm taking swimming and soccer this semester as actual classes. Which I'm excited about, but at the same time, wearing a one piece speedo, goggles, and a cap is going to be....well....interesting. I should be fit and looking lean by wedding time though, and after that the honeymoon in Mexico. ;)

I don't think it has quite sunk in yet. I look down at my hand several times a day and see the ring and try to peer into the future. I wonder when I will actually start feeling like a fiance, instead of plain ole melody?

Update on the big day!

Check out our website for details:

Put in my name in the orange box under 'going to a wedding' and click webpage.

Only 130 days to go. Planning is in full swing. We registered at Dillards and Target this weekend so at least that is out of the way. We start premarital counseling this week. We also picked our location and time. Its going to be May 20th around 4. Check our location website for awesome pictures. We rent the entire inn, so all of the rooms are available except the honeymoon suite if anyone is interested in staying the night in one of the rooms:

Joe and I are so excited. The one thing that has been weighing on my mind is the fact that people keep asking/making the comment to him-thank god never to me or i'd be pissed- about "do you need to get married?" ASSUMING THAT IM LIKE KNOCKED UP! HAH! This is comical to anyone that knows me, cause im like the only remaining virgin in the mid-U.S. GRRRR! Can't two people just be excited and anxious about starting their lives together? How tacky is it to make that comment?

I guess it does seem sudden to most people. Considering we met on August 27th, and were engaged on December 24th. We just knew we were meant for each other early on is all. We are to that point now that we have silent conversations with each other, and can even finish each others sentences in conversation. I love that feeling. The feeling of someone understanding you, and finding everything you say important. What a catch I've gotten myself.
