Bachelor Party!!

Sean's Bachelor party is being planned as we speak. John is in the process of planning a weekend get away to Raccoon-Cecil Hardin Lake (near Turkey Run). They are going to rent a house located on the lake the weekend of July 31st-August 2nd.



They are planning on floating down the river on tubes. This way they can relax and sight see all while still drinking beer. I am sure John has many other things planned for the weekend. I know Sean is looking forward to it!

Bachelorette Party!!

My Bachelorette Party is planned thanks to Mary!

We are going to Put-in-Bay, Ohio July 17-19th. Several of us will be leaving Friday afternoon from Indianapolis. It is about a 5 1/2 hour drive from Indianapolis so we want to get there in plenty of time so we can go out on Friday night. Saturday will be a fun day of laying out, shopping, drinking, and going out of course. Sunday we might lay out a little and then we will make the trip back to Indy.

I am looking forward to the fun festivities Mary has planned!

3 Months until the Wedding!

We are now only 3 months away!!

• Last week we met with our pre martial counselor for the first time. Sean and I really liked him. He wants to meet with us a couple more times before the wedding. Our next meeting is next Thursday. Before the meeting Sean and I are suppose to get online to answer a few questions about ourselves as well as about each other. He will then compare the two. I am very anxious to see if Sean and I see ourselves the same as we see each other.

• We picked out the wedding tuxes! We went to Men's Warehouse last Saturday and everything is set for the Groomsman to be fitted!

• We meet with the florist, Deborah at Bride's Choice Florist yesterday. When I first went to the florist I decided on bright colored flowers (hot pink, orange, yellow, purple, and green). However after visiting the Conrad, Sean and I have decided to tame down the flower a little. We are now set and have everything picked out for the second time:) Lets hope this is the final change we have to make in regards to flowers.

• Tomorrow we are meeting with the Hard Rock Cafe to finalize the Rehearsal Dinner menu and room arrangement.

Check back for more wedding updates:)

Half Marathon

The Geist Half Marathon went great!! I ran the entire race without a problem. I crossed the finish line at 2 hours 6 minutes and 42 seconds!! I had so much fun running this race I am planning on signing up for another one that is taking place in Indy on October 17th. So hopefully I will continue to get faster and faster. But with this being my first time I am pretty proud of myself.

Wedding Planning

This has been a crazy week. On Wednesday we had the tasting at the Conrad. The food was absolutely amazing! Deciding what we want to serve as the main course is going to be a difficult decision that is for sure. We also got to see several samples of table linens and chair covers. All of those looked great. Making these last few decision is going to be difficult.

We got our engagement pictures taken on Thursday. We shoot for about 8 hours so I am sure we will have plenty of good pictures. We took pictures in a field, in a 100 year old house that was collapsing, at Verizon Wireless Music Center on stage, and at our house. I can't wait too see how all of these pictures turned out.

This weekend is the big 13.1 mile race. I am keeping my finger crosses that this bad weather holds off on Saturday morning. As long as it isn't thundering and lighting the race will still take place. I am getting extremely nervous....yikes.

Fun Weekend!

Sean and I had an extremely busy and fun weekend! On Friday night we went over to Lindsey and Andy Myers house for dinner and to hangout. Kristin and Sam joined us for dinner. It was really fun getting to see everyone! I had a great time and can't to see them again sometime in the near future!

On Saturday we had brunch with Sean's mom for mothers day. Then I headed to Muncie to celebrate Mary's graduation from grad school. Congrats Mary!!! Sean hung out with Rowdy and some friends in his band. They rocked out and then just hang out.

Sunday we spend time with my mom and Sean's step mom Lisa. So needless to say I am extremely tired today but it was worth it!


This week is going to be crazy with all the fun wedding planning stuff we have planned. On Wednesday we have the Conrad tasting and a meeting with the florist and on Thursday we have engagement pictures. Let hope the weather is nice on Thursday since this is our second attempt to get our pictures taken. There is a chance of rain but I am just going to keep my fingers crosses that the weather cast is wrong.


This weekend is the Geist mini marathon. I am starting to get extremely nervous. I have never ran a 13.1 mile race before so I really don't know what to expect. My goal for this race is to run the entire thing so we will see if I can make it. I am not really worried about my time since it is my first one. I have been training since January so hopefully I am prepared. I will let you know how I do.
