So many things...

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I officially have a venue.  However, the more I think about it I'm a little concerned with the size.  But whateves.

I'm getting married! June 23 at the Harbor Club on Lake Oconee.  YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!  I already picked out the food and alcohol available, so even that part is done.

Also, I've booked my photographer - Derek Shane.  I decided to go with him because basically I get more for the price.  Plus he's a lot more willing to work with me in terms of payment cause well we all know that I'm not by any means wealthy. But Derek does awesome work.  However, I'm not sure if his name is Derek or Shane.  It's a little strange really. I've got planned to have our engagement pics taken on October 20 the Tuesday after Columbus Day.  This works out great cause then we can get those printed and send out save the dates and stuff like that.
Speaking of photographer I just have to pick my "half" photographer in Knoxville, and call UT.  In the event I haven't mentioned this... I super want my engagement pictures to be around UT and especially on the field cause that would be FRICKIN AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So I've contacted a few photographers in Knoxville (I don't wanna pay a travel fee) to see where they are on pricing.  I may be a little delayed on paying by my aunt or my mom but it's totally gonna be worth it.

What's even better.... I'M GOING TO THE TENNESSEE/UGA GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So I need to work out my half photographer for the Friday before the game.  I'm so excited.  I think I'm more excited about the game than the pictures, but I'm sure it's going to be awesome!!! OMG I'm so excited!

So that's really it in terms of wedding planning, but I'm kinda still excited cause I can actually start planning things and looking at other things.

On a totally non-wedding related note... Paul and I are looking at buying a fully furnished townhouse on Lake Oconee.  It's hella far away but it's a great place and super cute.  Also, after a couple of years maybe we can buy waterfront property.  I just have to find a job out there, which let's be honest I'd really rather not work.  The townhouse is super close to a really awesome charter school/academy.  However, if my future kid doesn't get in cause we didn't sign up early enough then I'm gonna have to schlep them to Athens.... ugh.  Oh well.

So I'm finally starting to act like a grown up.  It's a little freaky I'm not gonna lie.  :)
