Just took a look back at my summer to-do list and boy-o have I gotten some things accomplished!
Matt and I are engaged!!! (Okay, sorry, it's just fun typing that) We have our venue booked, food taken care of, leads on photographer, cakes and flowers and tons of ideas floating around in my head and are so ready to be married. Some of our wonderful friends have agreed to be in our wedding and we got to show our family the venue and they loved it so I feel like things are going well on the wedding planning front.
In other news, I officially have a teaching job for next year and while there are a lot of changes going on at our school I could not be happier to be headed back to the classroom! I've already attended one week-long teaching workshop and have another one coming up in a few weeks. I'm also signed up to take my ESL certification test in October so that's another check off my list.
We signed our lease yesterday for our brand spanking new apartment and are so so so excited to move out of the hell hole that is our current apartment. We have already planned out where all our furniture will be going and have picked out some sweet new stuff from my fave store, IKEA. I have been making weekly trips to Goodwill to get rid of all the excess stuff we've crammed into our little place and we have stacks of boxes just waiting to be filled. Sadly we won't officially move in until the 13th, but at least we will have big strong movers to haul all this stuff up to the second floor.
So in conclusion, I just feel very blessed that everything is falling into place and am ready to start off on this next facet of my life.
