Wedding Weekend!
Ryan and I worked our tails off on wedding stuff this weekend but it does not seem like we got much done at all. Friday night we started registering at Kohls. Then Saturday, we went and looked at tuxes, picked up my dress, checked on the bridesmaid dresses, had pre-marriage counseling, and we registered at Target!
Today I have been very anti-work so I have been designing our programs and rehearsal dinner invitations. I want to make everything myself to make it more personal and to save a little bit of money. I am trying to get started so I am not making 250 programs a week before the wedding. As soon as I get a few designs tried out I will get pictures up here for everyone's opinions
I was a little disappointed in registering. I guess I thought it would be lots of fun but by the end of it, we were just annoyed with it. We decided next time we do it we are going to place everything in a cart that way we can remember exactly what we did register for and it makes it alot easier to match things up. *Please check out our registries! We are missing lots of stuff and we definitley need to add more to these lists.
On a good note Ryan and I got our pre-marriage counseling survey results back on Saturday. Deacon Frank said we have scored the best on this exam than anyone ever! He thought maybe we cheated but after six years Ryan and I know each other quite well. It just made me smile!

Life is amazing in everyway....
I have to admit this week has been extremely challenging for me. After leaving work on Monday to head to Holland I was definitley not expecting to walk into what I did. I just can't believe I handled the situation as if nothing was wrong. I did break down one time but the only person that seen it was Ryan and I think that had a lot to do with the fact that I had not seen him for 10 days. I have always been worried about making the wrong decision about my career choice and many people have told me that I should go into business. Ryan turned to me on Tuesday and said that I was meant to work in healthcare and I finally felt that I did make the right decision. I am just so glad Grandpa Metzler is getting back to himself and I hope the recovery stays on track now. Have you ever heard the country song "I Saw God Today?" That is the only way I can explain what happened in Holland Hospital this week.
As for the wedding, I have not done much of anything. Ryan has picked out our tuxes but I have yet to look at them and I would just like to do that before we start having the guys get measured. The bridesmaid dresses will be in the next couple of weeks. But I need to make an appointment to get our engagement pictures done with the photographer, we also have to register and we have pre-marriage counseling this weekend! I am hoping to get to Unique Bridal to see my dress!! I can't remember exactly what beading it has on it so I can start to pick out my accessories!
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

He will be there for a week, then training in Grand Rapids for a week and then back to Farmington Hills for another week but then he will be in Grand Rapids for good!!! I am so excited! I love Grand Rapids and the only thing that I dislike about it is that Ryan isn't here! It feels like our lives are FINALLY coming together!!! Yay Ryan!
