it's official...again!

well, well, well, not only am i fickle, but so are circumstances. :) i have some great news. it's rather fun. my parents and i went to look at a hall for the reception and less than 30 minutes later we booked it. i am not at liberty to disclose this information because, well, i'm not the one who put the money down. plus i want it to be a surprise. either way, i love it and it is the nicest place i have seen for a wedding. i am really excited and so are my mom and dad.
okay, that's part of the newes but the more interesting part is that we have changed our wedding date. isn't that fun? i love getting engaged so far in advance that i can change my date without flipping out about it! no it's not gonna be earlier. we are getting married on august 7, 2010. a few weeks after originally planned. why? basically we did it to book the place and to make sure that our family and friends from out of town would be able to come. it's a little different thinking i'll be getting married in august when for so long i've been saying, "july next year." it's august next year. i'm really happy and i feel really good about it. gabriele was a bit shocked when i asked his permission. he kept saying, "sure...sure...sure..." as if he wasn't actually sure as to what he was agreeing to. talking to him later i discovered that he really was okay with everything and he and his mother are very excited as well. after all it gives us a few more weeks. and i get to help sister furstenau with girls' camp again (which will end the day before).
we're getting married and we are so happy!
