New Job!

I have finally landed a full time job! It's back in the banking industry I go. As of Monday, March 2 I will be employed by First Federal Savings Bank. I will a general teller for now, which is fine with me. Full time jobs in my field are extremely hard to find in the Evansville area right now, so I'm just taking what I can get.

These beautiful roses were delivered to me on Friday at work as Nathan's way of kicking off the perfect Valentine's weekend! Saturday morning we got up early and started a perfect Valentine's Day. We got our passport pictures, lunch with my parents, registered for gifts, church and a movie (Confessions of a Shopaholic, which is just like the book. It was fantastic! I think Nathan liked it too.)








Nathan had fun using the gun at Bed Bath & Beyond. Although I think he wished it took less than THREE hours to use! :)

Another breakthrough in wedding planning happened this weekend. We have decided on a cake person! Everyone we had looked at was completely out of our price range so the two of us sat down and put our thinking caps on and came up with another option, that is almost half the price everyone else was quoting us!! We are already solving problems together! :)

Big Week for Planning

Wedding plans and decisions have been running wild this past week. We have picked up our printed invitations, now we just have to get and make the vellum wraps that go around them. Over the weekend we bought JoAnn's out of fuscia ribbon for all our wedding projects. We were also able to find our unity and mothers candles. We both wanted something simple and just so happened so see the same one at the same time so we knew the one we found was meant for us! Plus we agreed on it simultaneously so we had to get it!

There has been a small snag in planning. We met with Father last night and he put a huge damper on the after ceremony celebration. He told us we can not throw anything as we walk out of the church! This is still under negotiation so we will see if we have to change our plans.

My Mom, Dena and Carrie Reineke went to SuperBride Sunday and found some great new ideas. Some which Nathan thinks are a little excessive but you'll have that sometimes. It was a lot of fun. We tried different cake vendors and have narrowed it down to three places we are looking at for the cake. I have the design, now I just need someone to make it! :)

-Some non wedding news: We survived the winter snow storm. Our backyard looks like a tornado went through then dumped snow on top of it. The only damage we had was on the front of the house. A branch came down and tore about five pieces of siding. Nothing that Nathan can't fix.
