Art Fair on the Square

Every year Madison Wisconsin has an Art Fair and it's held downtown on the square. Andy and I went down to stroll around and look at expensive art. All different vendors from across the state come and share their talent. While we were down town at the capital we had the chance to go inside the state capital and go up to the observation deck. I have posted some pictures . I guess they also have tours to and maybe some time I will go do that...

4th of July Pictures

Wow so many posts!!!

Your probably wondering why I'm posting so much, well that's because I'm sitting at work on a Saturday after the 4th of July and there isn't anything to do. I have done word searches to surfing the Internet. There is some filing that could be done but at the same time , if I do it all today I won't have it for next week. The time isn't flying by fast enough here at work that's for sure.

Summer Television

I"m amazed at how many shows this summer are actually decent. I've been watching America Got Talent, Hopkins, The Baby Borrowers,and soon will be watching Big Brother. There is some really good talents in the states this year on America's Got Talent. I would love to try out for the show but I think I would be to chicken.. The Baby Borrowers is just not right. They say it's a form of birth control for kids. And I would have to say it's working maybe... Has anyone seen any of these shows yet?

Golf Lessons!!!!!

I have started to enjoy golf and watching golf more and more. When we out for dinner on my birthday Allison was talking about golf and I didn't understand all the different clubs, irons, wedges, and driver. So I was talking with Andy and I said I really want to go and get a book on golf so I can understand it, and he said you need golf clubs first. So this Sunday he's going to take me to Dick's Sporting Goods and were going to look at golf clubs for me.. I'm really kind of excited that way I can go play some golf with him. I won't be as good as him but oh well. Maybe I will go sign up for golf lessons...

Chicken Soup for the Soul Couples

I just recently bought a new book to read. I went to Barnes and Noble and spend an hour and half in the store just looking at books. There is anything and everything that you could possibly want. I wanted something about couples and yet romantic. So I was looking for a good book that had both of those things in it... I came across a lot of different one's and I bought Chicken Soup for the Soul Couples version. If you don't know anything about these books they talk about love, sex, communication, trust, family, and other topics but they are all inspirational stories... So I started to read this book and the first story I read was a really cute idea. Create a flower day with your husband and every month on that day you give flowers to your wife no matter what. So the story I was reading, her husband has passed away but one of his wishes was that their neighbor carry on the tradition for him . Give his wife flowers still... It was a really cute idea and it doesn't have to be flowers it could be something else. Create a special day with your spouse.

July 4th

Happy 4th of July!!!! Andy and I celebrated the 4th of July here in Madison. His family has a big cookout and there fire works right down the street from where they live. It's always nice to see family and friends and play games and eat tons of food. I have tons of pictures to post but can't right now. So I will be posting them later. Hope everyone had a good 4th of July!!!!!

July 2nd

Well I had my 26th birthday... Nothing really changed though, just another number. Andy bought me my first card that has the word WIFE on it.. To my wonderful wife I think it said... LOL !! It's still funny hearing the words wife and husband. My wife, my husband..... Anyways though Andy and I and some friends of our went out to dinner. We went to Joey's seafood... YUMMY!!!! I share my birthday with my brother Todd and I called him to wish him a Happy Birthday too. It's pretty cool to share that special day together. He's older than I am though. Then my older sisters birthday is coming up too in July... Lots of family birthdays in July.

The Kung Fo Panda

Saturday Andy's parents and I took Kris to see the Kung Fo Panda Movie at the IMAX. I have never been to the Imax theater. Pretty cool place. It was definitely a cute movie but not one I would buy when it comes out. But it was something fun and different to do on a Saturday night. Andy had to work that night so it got me out of the house too. You all should take your kids to it.

Mallards Game

Friday the 6th Andy and I went to the Madison Mallards Baseball game. His parents are hosting one of the players so they have season tickets like they did last year. This year our player is from North Carolina. His name is Rob. His parents have really good seats too. They play here all summer off and on. So it's just something fun to go do and enjoy.

Wedding News

Well as you all know we have been planning a wedding. It finally happen on May 17Th 2008. I"m now Mrs. Poole , I can't believe it. We have lots of pictures to post and show. We had a great rehearsal dinner that was a lot of fun and then the reception was also a lot of fun too. A very special day in my life! If any of you are family members have some pictures to share please email them to me. I would love to see them. I will be posting the pictures very soon.

You've Got Mail!!!!

This past weekend I received a card in the mail and guess who it was addressed to? Sunni Poole. My first piece of mail with my new name on it... I couldn't believe it. I don't think the person who sent it meant to but that's OK. It was pretty exciting to see that.

Is it time yet?

It feels as if just yesterday we were starting to plan our wedding. But that's not the case anymore. We have 6 days till the big day. Can you believe it.... I would say we are all set and just looking for a perfect day. Though I hear we are going to have a 40% showers on Saturday. So please cross your fingers and hope it doesn't rain. I"m really looking forward to seeing all of the family. My older sister Shelby is coming and I haven't seen her and my niece for almost 2 years I think it is. Crazy I know... Someday I think she's going to move back home. Anyways though I hope to get some good pics of the family. I'm already thinking about Christmas this year and how many pictures I will have to put in the famous scrapbook calendar. I may have to make two.. Well off to shop for last minute things for next weekend... Can't wait to see all of you..

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.

New Mexico Trip

Wedding Plans

The wedding is approaching fast! We are definitely getting excited about the big day! Less then two months , I can't believe how fast it went. Plans are going well, everything is pretty much all done. The girls all have their dresses, the guys have been fitted for the tuxes. All the wedding favors are almost done. Still need to get some candles for the wedding centerpieces, but other than that it's all ready. Can't wait till the big day!!!! Now we get the RSVP cards back too so we get to find out whose all coming....

Television Shows I"m into this season !

There are a few television shows that I"m into watching this spring!

1. Big Brother 9 : This show started out as a couples game and now they have broke off to being single players. It's mainly a reality game / strategy show... Every week someone gets voted off!

2. Dancing with the Stars: This season has a interesting cast on it.There is one star name Marlee Marlen I think her name is, and she's deaf and can't hear the music. But she did a wonderful job the first night of the show.

3. American Idol : I have been watching this show since the beginning of it's season. There are some really great singers on it this season. David Cook, Brooke White, Carly and a few others. Tune in if you can.

4. The Bachelor: This season is the first time they have had a Britain on . And he's choosing one of us American women.

5. The Apprentice Celebrity: This is another reality game show but they are all playing for Charity's. I really hope that Trace Adkins wins.... Next week is the finally!

6. Here Come the Newlyweds: This show can be pretty funny! Andy and I have been watching this show on Sundays nights together. They ask a lot of questions to the other spouse.. Some interesting ones...And then I turn to Andy and ask him! He just laughs!

You would think I watch a lot of television, but really I don't... I tape all these shows and generally watch them on the weekends or right when I get home for work. So no couch potato here.

March Madness

It's that time again where there is nothing else on television but basketball and golf! I don't mind watching it so much but when you have to watch it all the time, it gets to be boring. Unfortunately Illinois didn't make it into the tournament but Wisconsin did. So far they are doing good. But they have a game this afternoon. We will see if they can pull off another win! Then there is golf, that can be pretty boring to watch too but sometimes it's fun to watch Tiger Woods golf... He's like number one right now in the country. At least to me he is! Anyways though I can't wait till there is some real television on again.

Snow

Here in Madison is snows a lot! Yesterday the forecast was calling for about 8-13 inches of snow in the Madison Area. I couldn't believe it and they say it was spring time. Anyways though it was nice and sunny outside the day before and it was like 45 degrees out and then it had to snow. I was lucky though because the roads weren't as bad as I thought they were going to be. They were pretty clean and I didn't get stuck going home. The only downfall was I had to work till 6 last night. But it's overtime....

Self Service - From Rachel Ray Readers

So I"m a big fan of " Everyday with Rachel Ray" Magazine. I was reading some of the readers tips that I didn't know about. So I thought I would share them on here.

1. If you have heartburn or indigestion, open a small can of sauerkraut and drink a little of the juice . You will get relief within 10 minutes. - Gloria Morton

2. When my sister and I were little and had fevers, our mom and grandmother insisted we put onions in our socks. We didn't care for the smell but our fevers came down. - Dana Heron

3. Sucking on a lime wedge doused in bitters cures the hick ups .- Dawn Warnentine

4. I make warm Chamomile tea and compresses for sore eyes. Just soak a washcloth in some brewed tea , place the washcloth over your eyes and lie back. It cures everything. - Sherry Brennan

5.Run the inside of a banana peel on a mosquito bite to stop the itching.- Lisa Walters

I'm leaving

I'm leaving on a jet plane, don't know when I will be back again.... Well actually Andy and I are flying to New Mexico in the morning. Andy has his once a year USBC Bowling . I have never been to New Mexico before. It's amazing the places I have gone with Andy since we have known each other. Baton Rouge, Corpus Christie, Reno, and now New Mexico.... Next year we are going to Las Vegas and then in 2010 we head to Orlando.... We leave tomorrow and come back on Monday.. It was a little over a year ago this weekend that Andy had proposed to me... And now were less then 3 months away from the wedding. Getting very excited about it though...

Wedding Part 2

So yesterday Andy and I went and met with the caters for the wedding and it's amazing the amount of money you spend... China, and glasses, and labor for the servers, and money for the bar tender, and so on... Makes you think about, why didn't we just elope and have a fun party or cookout or something. But I guess in the long run you only do this once so it's worth it...

Wedding News

Well Andy and I went and met with the Church and the pastor who is going to marry us. When we first walked in, I got the wrong impression right off the bat. Didn't ask my name or anything and he really didn't introduce himself either. While we were there and things he was talking about different things and I asked does it have to be a father that walks you down ,because I'm having my grandpa walk me down. And I mentioned that my parents are divorce and I don't get along with my father. Then he proceeded to talk about divorce rate. Then I noticed that he was one to talk when he didn't have a wedding ring on. Who knows... Anyways though we were to take a counseling class and the pastor said it was to late, so he had us take this personality test. It was one of those fill in the bubble ACT test. Andy and I had to sit a opposite ends of the table, couldn't talk or look at other while taking it. This test was 165 questions long. When we were done, we took it back to the pastor and he said that he was going to send it to the University of Minnesota and once he got our scores back that he would call us. So I'm thinking to myself, what are these scores going to tell, if they aren't accurate or up to his likings, is he not going to marry us... Maybe I was reading way to much into it, but still kind of weird I thought. And to top it off, he didn't know the date we requested or the time or any of that either. Very unorganized if you ask me... Just a little venting ....

SORRY

I know I haven't typed on here for awhile. I have been so busy with wedding things. I will soon update more information I promise... There is a lot to share.

Snow in Wisconsin stinks.

Write more later.....

~ It's Friday ~

It's Friday and it's time to party! Not really though. Don't have a lot planned , though I'm working on some wedding things. I can't believe how soon it's coming up. This Sunday is SuperBowl Sunday, I wonder who is going to win?My guess is the Patriots but we will see.. Don't know that I will watch it but if there isn't anything else good on then I will . Speaking of television I'm really in to the American Idol and Celebrity Apprentice this season. There are a lot of good singers on but then there are some that just shouldn't be on there. And Celebrity Apprentice, very interesting season so far. I will keep you all posted.

When I logged on to Yahoo

This morning I was logging on to Yahoo.com and up came the little monkey that rides the dog. Every year in Palestine at the famous Rodeo there is always some special act. Last year he was there. I just thought it was cool that he made it on to Yahoo. com.

My Wedding Dress

Last night I called David's Bridal to see if I could come in any earlier to have my last dress fitting and she told me that it was actually done and if I wanted to , I could come in tonight.. So last night I went to Davids and tried my dress on for one last time before the wedding. I also wore my wedding jewlery just to see what it would look like. I have to say it looks really nice. Allison was also there, she's on my bridesmaid. She's been a good person to ask for advice on wedding things since she's already married. While she was there, she was also able to pick up her dress . They really turned out cute and the shoes are cute too. I can't wait to see all the girls in them. It's getting closer to time...

Were Done!

Andy and I finished up all of our registry lists. We have registered at Target, Bed Bath and Beyond, and Linen and Things. All these places have a great selction of things so it was kind of hard to choose. Andy would do all the scanning the bar codes in. Sometimes he would wander off and put something on the list that I didn't know about. I later then found out. But I said he could leave it on there. Let me know if you can figure out what it is. Can't wait to see everyone at the wedding.

Dentist- Enough Said

It's seems that I have been at the dentist a lot lately. To top it off I had work done this morning and my whole right side of my cheek went numb. I had work done on my teeth at 7:40 and here it's 4:30 and it still hurts. I really dislike going to the dentist but I guess I have to. One more appointment and I'm home free from the dentist till July. HOORAY!!!!!

Wedding Ring

On Friday the 18th , Andy and I decided to go to TQ Diamonds, this is where he purchased my wedding ring at. However my ring doesn't have a band that matches so we went in and looked at our options. Andy found the ring he wants and me, I have an idea. We are going to custom make my ring to match my wedding ring. I have to take it this week and they are going to keep it for 3-4 days . So I'm getting excited about getting our wedding bands done too. It's the price that's not going to be fun to pay.

This past week!

This past weekend I had some fun. I didn't have to work last Saturday so I went shopping... Andy had a bowling tournament that day and so his mom and I went shopping for wedding shoes for her dress. We weren't able to find any but we did find jewelry for her to wear. It's very pretty I might add. We continued to shop all over town for shoes but we didn't find anything. Maybe towards spring time she will find some. Anyways though I happen to be in some store and bought my bridesmaids gifts. Though I can't tell anyone what it is, It has to be a surprise.. But I'm glad I got that out of the way. One less thing I have to do . The girls will have to see what they get, I hope they like it..

Wedding dress fitting

Saturday morning I woke up and met my mom and john at the hotel. They were finishing eating breakfast and we were just chatting. Nor did I know that it was to snow that day. I think my mom hates the snow after being here in Madison. It just keeps snowing and snowing. Over 45 inches this winter so far. Anyways me and my mom and Andy's mom all went to Davids Bridal. I had to wait awhile before I could go have my fitting so Carrie and my mom went and looked at Mother of bride/groom dresses. Turns out they both found one that they really liked and they both look good in them. So it was time for me to go put my dress on for the fitting. I still fit which was a good thing. They are going to have it altered and cleaned for me by Feb. I was impressed how fast I would get it back. Then it was time to see mom and John leave. They had to get back for my grandpa's birthday. But they will be back soon enough.

Mom was here!

I haven't been a good girl lately when it comes to updating my blog so here are a few new things going on. Mom and John came up on Friday the 11Th to visit Andy and I. Mainly because I wanted mom to come with me as I went to try my wedding dress on. Anyways though Friday night we went to Joey's seafood restaurant and it was good, but it took them awhile to seat us. But we got 2 free appetizers out of it. Then we went back to parktowne and had a drink and then home. I had a big day on Saturday. It was a lot of fun having them come and visit.

Healthy Teeth

Nothing like going to the dentist to have your teeth cleaned. I really don't care for the dentist but I know have to go. So I went in and they said I get a smiley face for having great teeth . I was really thrilled with that... But now I have two more appointments because they want to take out some old fillings that I have had since I was a kid and replaced them with new ones. Rather have healthy teeth then not.

Wisconsin vs. Illinois

Last night Andy and I had tickets to the Wisconsin vs. Illinois basketball game. One of my co-workers had tickets that he wasn't going to be using. So we went and watched the game. It was a pretty good game. Illinois struggled a little but the played hard. It was kind of cool seeing Michael Jordan's son sitting there. He is going to play the Illini sometime. Anyways though the game ended up being like 70-60 or so. Maybe the next time they will win.

Clean Clothes and Towels

Wednesday night Andy and I went to the grocery store to do our weekly shopping. Though it last more then a week . It's amazing how much money you spend on food. I don't see how family with 6-7 kids could spend all that money. Never will I have 6 or 7 kids... Our two cats are already expensive. Anyways though so after we got home I did a load of laundry and it was all the towels. Andy always makes fun of me when I do laundry because I always end up doing something the wrong way. For instance, putting to much in at one time or when I'm putting them in the dryer , putting to many dryer sheets in. So I told him from now on you can do the laundry. You should see what happens when I wash the clothes and hang those up. They have to be in order. It's very funny ... So from now on, if there is laundry I will either do it when he's not at home or he can... LOL

Guess whose coming to Madison?

I"m so excited this weekend my mom is coming. I haven't seen her since September. I had the chance to go home during Christmas but with the weather here it wasn't safe to drive. They are coming up Friday night and were all going out to dinner. I think I'm going to take them to a little place called Joey's. It's a seafood ! Saturday were all waking up and going to David's Bridal for my first dress fitting. I hope I still fit in it! I think I will be fine, but from now till the wedding I will have to watch what I eat. I'm starting to get more and more excited about the wedding! Not to much longer! Can't wait to see you this weekend MOM! Love you!

New Music

Tonight I went online to read one of my friends' blog and I noticed that they had music on theirs. I was very interested in learning how they did so. So I research it out and I decided to put some country music on my blog. There's a little country, classical piano, and a few fun songs. I hope you enjoy. If you can think of any good songs that you would like to hear let me know and I will try to add them.

Gift Registry

Last night Andy and I decided to go to Target! While we were there we went up and down all the merchandise, Andy had in one hand a scan gun and the other rubbing his eye. Yep we did it, went and registered at Target for the wedding. This is just one store that we will be doing. But if you would like a jump start, log on to Target.com and look our names up. There are some good things on there and some that are just to funny. But we will see!

Bowl Games

Today is one of the biggest days for football. I never really got into college football, but this year and last I did. I think that's because Andy likes football. Anyways though I was happy to see that Illinois made it to the Rose Bowl, however they didn't do so good. But they haven't been to a bowl game for 23 years or something like that. Kind of crazy.




Andy enjoys watching Michigan and Florida, however today in the Capital one Bowl game they had to play each other . That was a pretty good game to watch, and it would also Lou Carr last game to coach at Michigan. And he went out with a bang since Michigan won.

Also played today was Tennessee vs. Wisconsin. That was a close game but it came to the last touch down by Tenn that gave them the chance to win. Wisconsin had a good year though.

Now it's on to finish watching Hockey and the start of watching Basketball. But I don't think I will be watching to much TV since we have a wedding coming up.

Engagement Pictures

These are some of our engagement pictures!

Happy New Years !

Happy New Years!

This new years Andy and I decided that we would go out rather then staying home. So we called two of our wedding party members and went out to dinner with them. We had a prime rib dinner that was really good and none of us could finish it. We ended up hanging out there the whole night and then some others showed up later. All around it was a fun night. Back to work though on Wednesday. It really messes up your work week when you have a day off in between the week. OH well though they say it's to get up in the 50 this weekend maybe. That will be nice.

The count down begins to the wedding. Less then 5 months away, I can't believe it. I have my first dress fitting next week. I"m looking forward to it but at the same time, I hope I still fit in it. I"m sure I will. Just have to watch what I eat from here on out...

I think all the girls in the wedding party have their dresses ordered now which is a good thing. I"m so excited to see how they all look.

Everyone have a wonderful rest of the week.
