    Bleeding hearts and orchids are some of my favourites, though I'm a sucker for Queen Anne's Lace.  It's a weed, but still so pretty.  You would love some of the greenhouses over in the Netherlands - the Dutch love experimenting with orchids.  I went to a couple last year, and I was blown away.

    One random/strange/fun fact about you: I am a bit of a language nerd! I studied Latin, Greek, and German throughout high school and college, and I'm learning Spanish now. After that, French and Thai are on the list!

    @Bcat2483 Wow, that's awesome about all your languages!  Do you go to different countries that speak those languages to practice?  I can't imagine learning Greek, and I had to do some Latin, but  FI does it better so I cheated and had him help me. 
    Also, our colours are very similar - I'm sky blue and white, but I already know that FI wants to add some darker blue in.  It's his wedding too, so I'll let him figure that out. 
    Good luck on the job hunt!

  • Hi Karen, Welcome

     

  • hey there karen wedding date twin!
  • @Dancer2873 Was there any special reason you picked that date? We picked it because we fell in love with a venue we couldn't really afford so to make it happen we had to plan an "off season" wedding. Off season at this venue was Jan & Feb.
  • we picked it because its during mardi gras season and we are having a mardi gras inspired wedding. We were going to do the weekend before fat tuesday friday february 28th but the place we are having it there is no difference in price from friday or saturday, but the sat after the 28th is march 1st and its my birthday so we moved it up a weekend and will go on our mini moon the weekend of my birthday because we arent doing our honeymoon until the summer because my fiance is a teacher so I didn't want to do a super short honeymoon or get him in trouble since he isn't tenured yet. And that's good enough of a reason for me to have your wedding at that time!
  • Mardi gras theme seems so awesome! I think we are having a beer themed or influenced wedding but I keep going back and forth with ideas. I also like the idea of a wintery, snowflake wedding but I think FI likes the beer idea better.
  • Just recently joined here, hoping to get inspired by everyone else.

  • @jlhart76 My mother does that as well - reading the last chapter first!  It drives my dad and me nuts, but it makes her happy.
    I read the last page of the first chapter first, or at least I used to.  I find it really telling if I am going to like a book if they transition the end of the first chapter well. 
    But welcome to this board!

  • Holler!!  I've been kind of absent for the past few months, looks like lots of people are starting to join in on this group though!  Yay, Feb brides!!

  • @CarolinaHeart I eat chocolate everyday.  Getting in shape for my wedding is not motivating me at all - I can't say no when I'm in the chocolate aisle at the store, it just looks so tasty! 

  • @kerbohl the worst part is I'm generally a pretty decent eater health wise. But as soon as I said "okay time to buckle down" I feel the need to junk food CONSTANTLY. lol. The only reason I even ate that symphony bar is that I stumbled upon it in my pantry!

  • I eat chocolate everyday too. I wont lie I'm a tiny tot though. However I think a lot of that has to do with my activity levels, and the fact that I cant eat a lot of foods/I'm strict otherwise with my diet. I try to view eating as everything in moderation. I eat a lot more like a European than and American as my diet is very produce based as well.

  • I dont eat a lot of chocolate but I eat a lot of junk...I used to stay at a good weight for me through exercise but it hasnt been having the same desired effect on my weight and although I am not fat I am at my heaviest I have ever been and now I am working out like a pheen and eating nothing but fruits and veggies like 90% of the time and I have only lost like a lb! I am stumped and discouraged!
