So latly we had been praying so much for my FI job that it would stay availabe etc. His job is through the county and its from stimulus money and there were rumors that the money had run out etc and we were paranoid that he would loose his job and we would be put on hold another year ...
On Friday we found out his job is no longer in jeporady and he will be getting back to 10 hr days and overtime and every other Sat. Also he just applied for a crew cheif position and that will pay 2 more dollars an hour ... YAY !!!
And then ... We have been having HUGE problems with booking a venue... pricing, date availability ... my parents did not want it up in my FI area [it's not that far but if they pay for it etc..] It's just been a big big mess.... We were so stressed out about it ! So suddenly out of the blue my grandmother is inquirng about the venue /plans and my mom I guess gave her the cliff notes version ... So she sends my mother a letter stating she will pay half of the bill at the local banquet hall ... This local banquet hall is very expensive and I called and told her how expensive and that I'd understand if she said no... She pretty much said she didnt care and you only get one wedding /once in a lifetime etc.... I just about fell off my chair !! Normally she is very coupon/price savy etc and I expected her to tell me it was too much even at half ... So i call the hall just to see if they somehow have my date open ... And they do !!!!!!!!!!!
I'm officially excited and cannot believe what has just happend !!! !
I'm really not trying to brag or anything and honestly I hated to ask anyone to help us with a wedding period I was really ready to elope and say forget it all ....
But both these things in a week ??!!
God is good !!
And it's our 2 year anniversary [ yesterday ]
Love is All You Need
