Ketchup - or should I say Catch - Up

I've been a terrible blog author lately - really just disgraceful actually.  I guess its been since about February since I last wrote. So much has happened, but I'll sum it quickly.

I graduated, turned 22, went to Disneyworld, decided to get married at Disneyworld, moved in with TH, got a grown-up job, got a promotion, got a kitten, booked the wedding at Disney. And that is pretty much it.


Blogger, meet Sabrina.

I should go into more detail about moving the wedding. TH and I originally wanted to get married at DisneyWorld, but the more we talked about it the more we felt bad that it was going to be very small and very expensive. So we then decided to get married a little closer to home to make more people happy. The further along the planning got, the more we realized that the wedding was becoming less and less what we wanted and more and more a demon that was getting out of control. The guest list blew up from the maximum 50 that we wanted to about 150. The price tag grew out of control, and we basically had enough.

While TH and I were down at DisneyWorld we saw all of the places that we could have gotten married if we had done what we wanted originally, and we realized that it was still what we wanted.

So, we cancelled our date at Anderson, and booked one at Disney that is just going to be us, our parents, and his sister. The rest of my siblings (and nieces and nephew are coming down for the week, too). I could not be happier about the decision.

To compromise we are having an hors d'ouvres reception at Francescos in Rockford after we get back - showing the viceo of the wedding during it (there will be cake too :) )

TH and I just had to be reminded that this is one of the few days in our lives when we are supposed to be a little selfish :-)
