A mix of information...

Several items have happened over the last few days. First, on Wednesday - Eric and I took a trip down to the courthouse to register for our marriage license! I'm pretty sure it took us longer to drive there and back, than it did to grab the ever-important piece of paper. I can say, some of the questions asked were pretty funny...for instance, I had to answer whether Eric was related to me "any closer than second cousin" - um, no. We thought for sure there would be some sort of wait, but were pleased when we found out there wasn't. Of course, Eric did set off the metal detector - and the look the cops gave him wasn't a pretty one. End the end, all is now ready for Judge Barton to make it official! :)

Secondly, (and what some may call the most important...) the beer has been purchased! I couldn't tell you how many times Mom, Eric and I walked in and out of Meijer carrying three cases of beer - but it was time well spent. My biggest - fear is running out of beer. OK, maybe I have worse fears - like Eric not showing up! However, I could not live another day of my life around my family if I were to have the party that ended too soon. Every Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, any family function period - we'd hear about it. Drilling this into Mom's head wasn't so easy. I think, with the number we have, we'll be just fine. My luck - we'll end up with half the cases left!

And finally, Eric and I beautified ourselves today! I knew as were approaching our wedding date, I wanted to have my teeth cleaned and potentially whitened. The more I researched options, prices, convenience - I realized whitening wasn't totally out of the question. And, now Eric and I have bea-utiful teeth! It wasn't the most comfortable experience, but really - with a tray of gook in your mouth, a giant UV light shining in and with one of us staring at the other - what would be?! We immediately noticed a difference and are happy with our results - just not so sure we'd recommend the same place. Actually, I know for sure - I wouldn't.

We've scheduled our meeting for next week with all of our vendors, and our week is packed! With Eric starting classes next week as well - it's sure to even busier!
