Marriage

Yesterday Andy came and picked me up for lunch and we went to the state clerks office to apply for our marriage license. It's expensive to get just a piece of paper that states your married. Why is it that some states are cheaper then others? Everything went good. Later on after dinner we met with the Pastor Billings. The last time we met with him, he gave me a weird vibe. This time not so much. He was nicer and a little more talkative. Though he tended to put us on the spot on some of the questions. We had to take this couples personality test the first time we met him and so we reviewed our scores. Not to shabby. But then again we don't know what it's based off . Anyways though it was a good meeting . The rehearsal is set and so is the wedding... Only 22 days left till the big day...

My Hair for the Wedding

Last night I went and had my hair done as a trial for the wedding. That was a lot of fun too, it's fun having everyone stare at you and wonder why their having their hair done. I do recommend that when you get married or you are going to a big fancy event that you kind of know what you want them to do. I took a few pictures with me of what I wanted and he came up with something really cute and elegant I would have to say. I can post all the pictures because I know that Andy reads my blog and I would like it to be a surprise of what I look like on my special day. So everyone will have to wait to see the final .

The little girl

I sometimes wonder why cats will cuddle with one person but not the other... What are they thinking mmmm..... Bailey always cuddles with Andy and Maggie always tends to cuddle up with me. I always say that Bailey is a daddy's girl and Maggie is becoming a daddy's girl... I said to Andy that we need to get another cat so that they cuddle with me. Nah just kidding.. Maggie always cuddles up on my feet in the middle of the night to keep me warm. And they both are my alarm clock when it's time to get up. Cats... They are funny animals....

Makeup for the Wedding

So I was trying to find a place to have my makeup done. And I was walking through Boston's one day and I noticed they have a Clinique Counter. I stopped and asked if they do pre-trials for makeup? is it free? And they said yes, the only thing we ask in return is you purchase something. So I didn't think that was such a bad idea. So on Monday night I went out and had my makeup done. I took Allison with me and she was my second opinion on everything. It was a really fun experience . The girl who did my makeup did a really great job too. Looked all natural .. Can't wait for everyone to see the finished results in a few weeks.

Bridal Shower Pics

These are some of the pics that were taken at the Bridal shower.

They are kinda being posted late but it was a fun day!!!

How was your weekend?

Our weekend was great! It was nice and sunny out and you couldn't have asked for better weather. Saturday morning I slept in a little bit, but I never sleep in to late. Andy has to work on Saturday mornings so I normally hear him get up and leave. Anyways though earlier in the week I had talked to Allison, and we had talked about going shopping at Johnson Creek. So we went to Noodles for lunch and then shopping for the day. I didn't buy a whole lot really . I found a cute little hand bag at the gap that was like 2 bucks and a pair of pants for work. It was fun though to just walk around the outlet stores. Sunday Andy had to work again and I went to the mall with his mom and went shopping again. She was looking for spring clothes and I didn't really find anything either. Anyways though it was a great weekend and had fun with the ladies. This coming weekend I'm going home to Champaign to see my family. I haven't seen them in awhile. That will be another great weekend.

Spring is in the Air

This morning I woke up and I normally go straight to the computer to find out what the weather is going to be. I looked and it said it was going to be in the 50's and then later this week it is going to be in the 60's almost. I couldn't believe it. We have had all this snow and I never thought I would see spring! That means the wedding is coming closer too. Anyways though the flowers are ready to bloom and I saw that our neighbor had planted some sunflowers in a flower pot and they have already bloomed. They are so pretty. I think I get my green thumb from my grandma. I tend to plant a flowers every year or at least some. This year though I may not have time due to the wedding. We will see though.

Blog title

So I thought I should change the title of my blog. I"m no longer coming to Madison. I have lived here for about 2 1/2 years now. I'm in Madison for good unless we decide to move again. I wouldn't be opposed to the option of moving back to Champaign, but who knows. Andy knows that I would like to move back there and be closer to family. But I do like it here in Madison too.So anyways I changed the title to My Day in Madison Wisconsin.

Bridal Shower

I had a bridal shower this weekend and it was a lot of fun to see everyone and open up tons of presents. I wish that more of my side was able to come but traveling wise , they weren't able too. And that's totally fine, they will all be at the wedding. And that day is going to be very special! Andy and I got tons of good gifts. We got our dishes, pillows, comforter, sheets, towels, picture frames, candles, scrapbook, grill, baking set, and money. After the bridal shower Andy and I and two of our friends all went out for dinner and to watch the Wisconsin Hockey game. That was a lot of fun too. We had a good weekend. Now I get to add more gifts to the registry because we took a lot of the stuff off that people have already gotten for us.
