i designed these cute little "save the date" cards. pretty cute huh? i like em

so i've been busy this weekend doing some major "spring cleaning" the entire house should be finished up by the end of today and then i'll just have to wait until it warms up to do the outside. i plan on doing some major cleaning outside. i'm gonna wash down the entire house and move our outdoor furniture to the front porch... then i think i'm going to take out our old landscaping that we have around our front porch (it's been there since we moved in) and add some flowers and maybe some trees or something...and some sort of different landscaping stuff. i'd also love to rip up my old yucky weedy yard and put down some sod. i need to look around and see if there is somewhere in terre haute that i can buy some sod...hmm..
so i've been doing some major cleaning and organizing..since we moved in here 3 years ago...i always used the big closet in our master bedroom for just me and justin used the little small closet in our extra bedroom...so this weekend i went thru my closet and dresser and if i hadn't worn it in the past year.....out it goes. so jc and i combined our closets into one...and then we'll use the small one for storage. i can't believe i had so many clothes...and most of them i don't even wear. i really want to have a yard sale this summer like usual because i can make so much money...BUT my small bedroom is packed full of all the clothes and stuff i'm getting rid of and i'm almost to the point to where i just want to take it and drop it off at goodwill. i'm just sorta at the point to where i just want to get rid of it.


so the wedding planning is going good. i just ordered some of the wedding favors we'll be giving out at the reception. i decided to do can koozies and poker chip magnets. the koozies are ordered and will be in in a few weeks...i need to get the poker chip magnets ordered...i'll probably do that next pay. let's see...i have to keep paying on pictures.... they are a total of $1200, i paid $300 deposit so that's $900 left to owe. i know my mom sent out a $100 check back in i think february..but she said she'd send out $100 every month. and it's april and i don't know if she sent out $100 for march and april...if so then our balance is $600 but she probably didn't send any because she never mentioned it to me. anyways...so my dress and everything is paid for. all i'll have to do is pay for alterations if it needs any...hopefully not. then justin is paying for our dj. it's $555 i think and we had to pay a $150 balance so only like $400 more on that and he said he'd pay for that and the $200 for the use of the church. wow...i never realized how expensive weddings were until now. anyways...and it's gonna cost up about $1000 for the reception hall and all the food and drinks....and i'm hoping my dad will pay for that. i haven't really talked to him about that yet... 104 days to go
