I have been gone for awhile. School has been keeping me pretty busy and FI and I are in the process of opening a new business (more details to come). I haven't seen anyone since the Cheesecake Factory G2G and I missed all the new girls come in and all the old ones get married 
However, I am back and what better day to come back than my 1 year mark!! AAAAHHHH!! So far I have my shoes (my blue shoes) and I found such an awesome deal on an 18 piece candy buffet that I just had to buy it!
More importantly, I am signing the contract on my venue this month 
It took me forever to find it but I am in love. It is a restaurant on the water with a private room, located in a hotel, pretty much everything I wanted. I will share right after I put the deposit! I am also in the process of purchasing my invitations and rsvp cards. I know I'm a few months early lol. I purchased a $50 coupon for $10 and realized it expires next month! I was going to use it for save the dates in October/November. I can't complain though because I will be spending under 50 bucks for everything and as long as the venue is booked, then why not purchase way in advance?
Other than that, I AM GOING TO RUNNING OF THE BRIDES and I am super excited!!! I am not really into the whole traditional way of picking a dress and think this will be a ton of fun! Unfortunately I won't be able to make it to the G2G Saturday. My quarter century birthday falls on Mother's Day so we're celebrating Friday night, bbq and camping (right after Running of the Brides) and I have a feeling I'm going to be sleeping in my bed all day Saturday. Vibes the weather holds up for Friday 
Sorry this was so long but I am so excited to be back!! Thanks for letting me share!
