Hi old friends

I thought I would pop in with a quick hello! How is everyone? jmo, kendell, ritzy, amethyst, justdance ect! 

    As for me so much has changed, we have been planning a September wedding for months now, but last month fiance and I though we might be pregnant, when we took the test and it turn out negative and AF came to visit the day after we were both surprisingly sad. We could both tell the other was just really bummed out, then we went and stayed in a little cabin for two days to readjust and while there we decided to move our date up to January 28th and get married in a snowy cabin with a horse drawn carriage and try to conceive as soon as we could! It is a big change for us because we were planning a BIG wedding and thinking of trying to get pregnant January 2013 and now we've cut our guest list down to 50 people and are hoping to be pregnant by the end of February (crosses fingers!)

  • Hi Katy, welcome back! Those are some huge wedding plan changes, but it sounds like a beautiful setting! Good luck with TTC! H and I are talking about heading down that journey soon, so I will probably be on TB more than TK in the near future (for more reasons than just TTC).

    Unfortunately, Kendall was recently banned and when she tries to come back on a new screen name, she gets banned all over again, usually within minutes/an hour. So I don't know if you will see her on here again. If you do, she will be unable to make her name, details, etc. known.

    Good luck with the rest of your planning! You're in the final stretch at this point :)
  • how exciting for you katy! congrats!

    things are about the same for me. we're not ready for babies for a couple years, so we're just enjoying married life now.

  • Hi Katy! Hooray for moving your wedding up! That is so exciting! It sounds beautiful. FI and I were thinking about a winter wedding as it'd be gorgeous with the snow and a horse-drawn carriage. Your wedding will be lovely.

    Good luck with TTC!

    That actually sounds pretty awesome and relaxing. You should have an ugly sweater contest! The ugliest sweater wins!<div>Just remember, as far as etiquette is concerned, you're not supposed to dictate what your guests wear, so maybe make the sweater-wearing optional. :)</div>

    Eh, it would be a PITA for me to find one. I'm a size 30 so I'd probably have to buy one from some specialty online store. Who knows how much that would cost. So I guess I'd be a lame-o at your wedding :)
  • Hi KATY!!

    We've missed you! That sounds like it's going to be such a fun wedding! Also, good luck on TTC.

    If i were there i would have to find an ugly hanukkah sweater. HOLLA AT YA JEWS!

    I'd have to be lucky to find one that fit at Goodwill... but I'll also be honest and say I'm not a fan of Goodwill clothing. :-\  Yes I'm kind of a snob.

    Meh. It's ok. Hanukkah is kind of lame when you're an adult. It really is more for children.

    That would be more applicable to easter, but the humor is appreciated on my front. I'm not going to share this is FI because I would be mortified if he decided to say that to any of my family members (who are all insanely religious)

    Yeah that's Easter. Christmas is Jesus' birthday. You know, manger, no room for you, straw, goats, etc.?

    I'm agnostic so while your comment doesn't offend me, I know it would offend most of the Christians I know. People who are saying Merry Christmas to you are merely being kind and friendly; there's no reason to respond back with a rude, offensive remark.

    ETA: You will receive more respect for your lack of a religion if you respect others' choices to follow a religion. Mocking their holidays will earn you zero respect.
