Too Cute

Got a text message from Chris today:

"Having an awesome time i cant get enough signal to call please call cabin"

It made me smile :) I was surprised though to get a text from him since he is on his bachelor party. I wasn't expecting to talk to him all week.

So, I called him and he's having a great time just relaxing, reading, eating, napping, playing Guitar Hero, and the ocassional game of 3-Man. Sort of the anti-Bachelor party, but it's what Chris wanted. His two college friends/groomsmen both commented that "this isn't the bachelor party we were expecting."

He proceeded to tell me that he took a survey last night of the guys and who had talked to their significant other. Pretty much all the guys fessed up. Granted most of the guys are either married, engaged, or co-habitating. I'm guessing he rationalized that if the other guys can talk to their girls, then he could talk to me... It was nice to hear his voice :)

3 month update

Wow, I've never broken it down this far, but we're less than 12 weeks away from the big day! Scary how fast time has gone by... Chris and I will be engaged a year this weekend. Feels like only yesterday when we were debating on the merits of a DC wedding v. a Williamsburg wedding.

Planning is coming along and our to-do list is getting shorter and shorter. We ordered our invitations on Friday and should see a proof at the end of this week. Our recent trip to Williamsburg was productive -- found a bakery for our wedding cake and put a deposit down; saw our rehearsal dinner site; had a rehearsal dinner tasting (yummy and got free beer, Brooklyn Brown Ale); and met with deejay and our site coordinator to go over some logistics.

We have no worries about Green Leafe shutting down. They just opened a new restaurant, Green Leafe Gourmet, in "New Town" and that's where we had our tasting. Their catering office is also based out of this new location, so totally different kitchen from Green Leafe Cafe, where the My Chemical Romance food poisoning incident happened.

So, we've got a lot accomplished and we'll both be heading to our respective bachelor/bachelorette parties next week. Chris heads out to Wisconsin on Sunday for a week and I leave the following Thursday for Key West. I think we're both looking forward to these trips since we haven't had a real vacation since we got engaged.

Ah, sunny island here I come :)
