Invites

Invites are finally out and people have been telling me that they've received them! Since we are in between homes right now we decided that all RSVPs should be mailed to my parent's house. So for those of you that were wondering, we didn't move back to my old home town.

If everything falls into place we will close on our house by the time I return from my bachelorette party! I am also shooting for a Bridal Shower two weeks before the big day at my new house. So send us some good vibes as we are going through these GIANT life changes.

P.S. I'd like to give a shout out to Brandon Hahr for designing the invites! Couldn't have done it without you!

Buying a house

So I'm pretty sure we bought a house. Since it's a short sale we have to wait for all the crap that comes along with it. Because this is the BIGGEST purchase of our lives, it kind of put a new perspective on money. We have a gift registry at Crate & Barrel, but now all that stuff seems like stuff we don't really need. What we really need is a fridge, stove, dishwasher, and a washer & dryer. I don't expect to get any of that stuff as a wedding gift, but gosh darnit it would be nice. BUT what we would love is just straight up CASH MONEY. Any little bit helps, but I don't want to put "Cash Only" for our gift registry because it just seems so tacky. But it's really what we need. How can we ask for money without seeming so tacky?
