Happening. SO. FAST.

Oh HI. I know I've been super MIA lately- I'm so, so sorry!!! I bet you all are wondering what the heck is going on- that is if anyone actually still visits this little website! So, let me tell you what's been up! First things first- we close on our house THIS. COMING. FRIDAY... yeah, I'm totally serious. The last picture I posted here was pre-drywall. So I know I've really failed at updates. Good thing is, most all of you follow me through Facebook and/or Twitter so I don't think anyone has truly been left without a clue! But yeah, this Friday- I'm all like, "IS THIS REAL LIFE?"

We just purchased our dining room table/chairs tonight:



I'm super excited about it! Last weekend we purchased a refrigerator, washer, dryer, grill, and lawnmower! It seems absolutely insane to me that we are buying all of these things. It just still doesn't seem real. WE are HOME OWNERS. US.

And in a few more weeks we will be Husband & Wife, and a day later we will be in Hawaii. :) Ohhh bliss!

I think I will wait on a picture update for the house because, I think if I've waited this long I may as well wait and do it up right with a video tour of everything completely finished. :)

This weekend is going to be spent finalizing wedding details with my coordinator, putting programs together, and packing! I am getting my hair done tomorrow for the last time before the wedding. OH, yes- hilarious story about that. Nate's Mom and I go to the same salon out of town and we got a call today from said salon saying, "OH hey, yeah both of your hair stylists are GONE... yeah so you're appointments tomorrow.. yeahhh.. we don't know." AND I'm all, "EXCUSE ME? The girl who has been doing my hair for over a year and knows what I like is GONE on my last appointment before me wedding?!", and if I would've been the one to answer the phone I might've gone all bridezilla on someone but .. yeah. So we have appointments with some random person we don't know.. with the same person.. so it's going to take twice as long. Yada, yada. If my hair gets screwed up, someone's gettin' hurt! /End rant.

Living Room Furniture!

We had our pre-drywall walk today and it went great! It was just a typical walk-through, explanation of light switches and outlets. We were able to ask questions.. that sort of thing. It already feels like home just because we've been out there so much! Everything is up to code and passed inspection so now it's time for drywall! We should have a closing date in late May, early June- if everything goes as planned. skjdhfkjhs.

After we left the house we grabbed a bite to eat at Steak & Shake and then headed over to Bed, Bath, & Beyond to add a few more things to our registry. So far Bed, Bath, & Beyond is my least favorite place we've registered .. out of the two, I guess. Haha. I'd like to register at JC Penny's too just because it's another place in my home town that people can go to buy gifts.

Annndd *drum roll* .. we ended up at Value City Furniture a bit after that. After much searching for a living room set that would make me faint with happiness- we found it!

Here are a few stock images from the website:


Couch- that microfiber suede material. This is by far the comfiest one that I've sat on, and I LOVE all of the pillows.


And this CHAIR. I can't explain the awesomeness that is this chair. It is so plushy and wonderful- and it spins/swivels around. I threw myself into it dramatically around 5 seconds after laying eyes on it and began hugging a pillow and rambling about how I had to have it. So, there you go. I pick out furniture like a 5 year old picks out a stuffed animal.
