items i have bought for the wedding so far:

• small plastic squirrels
• small plastic dinosaurs, one gorilla, and some farm animals
• tissue paper
• stamps
• white christmas lights

you can throw a wedding with just those things, right?

updated plan!

 since calling off the wedding earlier last year (feels weird that it's 2011 already), changes have been made to our original plan.  we loved the la conner flats, but unless we wanted to wait until next summer, early fall to have the wedding, we needed to find a new place.  preferably, one that had indoor and outdoor accommodations.  we found that in the rexville grange, located right in between la conner and mt. vernon.  you maybe familiar with the rexville grocery; the grange is right behind it!

the nice thing about the grange is that there's this inside,

and this outside,

how time flies...

oh my.  i'm supposed to get married in a little over five months!  the new location and the new date means we have a lot of work to do.  i should probably get my shit together and start with the planning in earnest.  it was easy the past two months to just "focus on the holidays," but it will be may 21st before i know it, and i don't want to be one of those brides who spends all day flummoxed and stressed out. 

that's why i'm posting now...as much to remind myself as anyone else.  ha!
