Shoes

So after looking for what felt like forever I finally found the perfect shoes.

These beauties are made by Betsey Johnson and called Kantana. They will be the pricest shoes I will have ever owned. Luckily for me They are sold at Zappos so I will be able to get my new employee discount. I am leaning towards the pink but they also come in blue. Originally I wanted blue shoe so they could be my something blue but the pink is so stunning I think I will still with them. I have seen on many blogs the blue I do on the bottom of the shoes which I think is a super cute idea.

So what do you think stick with pink and use the stickers or start from scratch?

Finally

I got a job!!! (insert me jumping up and down) I will now be a employee of

Yes how cool is that!!! It looks like I will fit in perfectly there too. The interview was so much fun I couldn't believe it. We joked around and just talked about everything. He even said my joke is what got me a joke; ready for it... What do you call a Fish with no "i". A FSH. I know its a horribly lame joke but it makes me laugh and apparently it worked for this job. I will also be making a trip to Kentucky to work in their warehouse for a week. It should be interesting I have never been to Kentucky or worked in a warehouse. They feel that since they work so close together business wise that all their employees should know how to work there as well. Personally I think this is a great idea, it makes the company link together even though its on the other side of the country I can't wait!!!

Job Description: People Pleaser

Apparently I am going through a phase I like to call the people pleaser. Granted I know there is no physical way to please everyone all at once but by golly I am trying. I do realize that I need to snap out of it because the one person I won't be pleasing is myself. Here is an example:
Today I went with my FMIL and FSIL to our ceremony site and I expected more out excitement out of them but all they said was that's nice. I wanted them to say 'Its perfect I couldn't imagine anything more' but then I thought to myself, this place makes me happy it doesn't matter about them. The only that should matter is Ryan and I being happy and hopefully everybody else will follow suit.

This week!!!

This coming week is going to be a busy one really its just the first two days. Monday I am showing my FMIL and FSIL the ceremony location as well as put the deposit down on it. Tuesday I have an interview with Zappos. I am super excited about it and if I get hired I get 40% off shoes and clothing. What girl could ask for more though I almost think Ryan is more excited. He spent over an hour looking at things he wants. I guess that will make present buying a lot easier. Also on Tuesday I get to meet with my florist. I orginally thought I would just make paper flowers but then decided I really want real flowers. The first florist I contact has given us a really good quote. I am excited to meet with her and put the deposit down (not excited about the money part but that just makes it offical).

Ch-ch-changes

So scratch the reception; well sort of. We have decided to have a small ceremony and reception then have a larger reception in the summer in KC. We are finally starting to book things so far we have our ceremony and our florist. First I was thinking I would just make paper flowers but I had second thoughts so now we have a florist who is giving us 15% off which is amazing since we have lots of corsages and boutonnieres. Finally everything is falling into place and it coming together. The next step is the photographer. Before I go here is the ceremony place.

Changing plans

So it looks like we might be changing plans. The place I last posted about only offered ceremonies and receptions. So I was ultimatley discouraged. My mom was getting on my case about finding a place and so I sent her a link to a place that was nice but I didn't think much of it. Well looking a little harder this place was perfect. We have use of the kitchen and get to rent for the whole. The best part is it is in our budget. We are going on Thursday to look at it and hopefully everything will work out! Now I just have to change my whole way of thinking and re-plan my wedding.

And the search begins.

For a ceremony location that is. I have always dreamed a garden wedding and hopefully we can find a place that fits. I have found a couple potentials but I am waiting for them to get back to me. This one is my favorite

There are light on the ceiling and its the first one I really went WOW. I need to run it by Ryan to make he likes it. Hopefully it will be in our price range. Keep your fingers crossed!!


We were going to look at some other sites this past week but didn't want to miss the futon which still hasn't been delivered. I also need to find a park that we can have the reception so we can get that reserved too. It is time to get into wedding mode.
