here are some pics from our last tuesday of engagement....4 days till our wedding!

One week left of being engaged!!!

Only one more week left of planning and organizing; and then the time to celebrate and have a good time will be here!!

I absolutely love my new apartment...as sparsely organized and undecorated it might be; its just wonderful to have a place to go to, a place to call home.
its wonderful!

looking forward to next saturday the 16th....and its only 7 days away!!

it was a girls weekend in palo alto, capitola and santa cruz!!!
so so fun!

i am now 26!  
below are pictures of my birthday dinner hosted by Dave; and then on my actual birthday Dave took me wine tasting and then to campo di bocce for dinner...a restaurant with indoor and outdoor bocce ball courts!!! 
i let dave win, cause he was way better than i was at the game!


26 candles would have been too many...mary bought me the cake!!


at elliots for some shuffle board....







and we have 64 days left till the big day...every day we are receiving more and more RSVP cards...which is so nice because it seems like people are on top of the RSVP thing.
i have my first dress fitting in less than 2 weeks...i ordered my flowers. i bought all the center pieces...pretty much we're just ready to go!
and we found an apartment!!!! 
which was more work that i thought it would be; but it is so nice to have that checked off the task list.
i am thrilled i get to move in early july once all the renovations are finished!!
its going to have a new kitchen, and all new floors!!
im looking forward to cooking in my own kitchen again!

i'll be getting married...which means one year from today we'll be celebrating our 6 month anniversary!! 

we're excited!!
