Time to pack!

This is Joe and I after harvesting some of the veggies from our garden - he's holding (and eating?) a green bell pepper and I have a huge bowl full of green beans! We cooked them up that night and had a tasty supper!

The wedding is 2 weeks from yesterday, and getting closer by the hour! Joe and I are SO excited! We've both had a great summer working full-time, but we're ready to start life together. It's hard not seeing each other during the week!

Everything is as ready-to-go as it can be, at least until we get to Ohio. We started packing this weekend, and it's my job to finish getting everything ready this week. While that's quite the task (between the week before the wedding, the wedding itself, and the honeymoon), it's nice to have something to keep me busy this week!

A special thanks to the moms, Judy Edwards and Deb Horst, and Jenny Strasbaugh, who have been a enormous help to me these last couple weeks. We've all been working together to finalize details, confirm with vendors, make wedding favors, and otherwise keep me sane. :)

If you'd like to help out: Say a little prayer that the gas prices keep dropping for everyone who has to travel in these next few weeks!

Two months from today...

... we'll be getting married!

I started addressing invitations today, so you should be getting one soon! They're getting out a little later than we had planned due to some delays with the printing, but at least they're getting out at all, right? Please remember to RSVP as soon as possible so we can plan accordingly!

The food for the reception is coming together nicely, and I am starting to get some ideas for decorations. There is still a lot to do, but it's nice to have something to do other than work!
Joe and I are both working full-time now. He is the head counselor at a nearby camp, and I am working as a CNA at a local long-term care facility. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we go through the summer. Both of our jobs take a lot of hard work, and we're always tired at the end of the day! We get to see each other on the weekends, and it's always nice to have that time together.

If you'd like to help: RSVP ASAP! :)
