Well- we are officially in the "final hours". 4 more days until the wedding. Everything has been going relatively smoothly. We pretty much have everything done that we needed to get done before this week. I even mentioned to my sister that I felt like everything was going almost a little too smoothly a couple days ago- and I might have spoken too soon. Yesterday (ahem, MONDAY- 5 days before the wedding) the owner of Taverna- the restaurant we are having our rehearsal dinner- called and left my mom a voicemail telling her that he is closing the restaurant- for good, as of yesterday. He said that the reason had something to do with Hurricane Ike. Sooooo after many phone calls and quick planning, thank goodness the Waterway Marriott in The Woodlands is going to be able to fit us in on Friday at 6:30 for our last-minute rehearsal dinner. haha. It might work out just as well- the Marriott is a lot closer to us and it will be very convenient for our out of town guests who are staying in the Marriott anyways.
Other than that, things are well. We have a bit more people coming to the wedding than we were expecting, but its nothing we can't fix. I'm just getting really excited to be MARRIED!! I'm looking forward to the little things- like waking up next to him every morning, and hearing him introduce me to other people as his wife. After all the planning that's gone into this big day- I really am starting to realize that it's going to go by VERY fast, and before I know it the wedding will be over.
Shawn seems to be enjoying his new job. He was originally supposed to be in training all the way up until the wedding weekend, but he actually was able to get done with training a little early so for about the past week or so he has been working on his own. I'm so proud of him. Please pray that he will continue to thrive at work and enjoy his job. Here is a picture of his work space. :)
I, however, had my last day working at rockfish today. Honestly, I can't say I will miss that place. haha. I mean, it was a job, but that's about it.
Two weekends ago, my dad and I drove up to Allen with a uhaul to move all my stuff into our apartment On Saturday, Shawn and I also went to go get our marriage license. We pretty much spent the whole weekend moving in, and just being excited about setting up our home.
Anyways, just wanted to post a quick update about whats up in our world. We are so excited to see everyone this weekend! Please keep us in your prayers that everything will go smoothly. I'll leave you with some pictures of our apartment taken from Shawn's iPhone.
Love,
Emily
