7 years! Now that's something!

So Lorenzo and I just celebrated our 7 YEAR ANNIVERSARY a few days ago. I have to say, they have been the greatest 7 years of my life. Also super exciting, this anniversary marked exactly 13 months until the wedding, and you know how we feel about the number 13! :) :) It was definitely lucky for us and will be lucky when we get married on the 13th of July 2012.

We spent the night before our anniversary at my sister and brother-in-law's house spending time with them and my 4 year old niece. We had my Grampa's funeral the day before and it was a very rough day for my family, but we got through it and I know Grampa is in a better place, dancing the night away up in heaven with Gramma.

Anyway my wonderful fiance and I spent the whole day together and he treated me to a romantic dinner at Outback (DELICIOUS!!) and bought me a gorgeous pearl necklace (the birthstone for our anniversary month, June). I got him an AC adapter for his new 42 inch TV he got from work, so it was a win win.

In wedding news...

WE HAVE OFFICIALLY BOOKED A TRIP TO THE OBX THIS SUMMER!!

I can't wait to feel that Cape Hatteras sand between my toes. We are going with Lorenzo's parents, my parents, and my sister's family from August 10th-15th. It will give me a chance to finally see the house where we are going to have the reception and scope out ceremony locations. Also, working on appointments with photographers and caterers while we are down there so we can get everything figured out. It will be a wonderful vacation and definitely a necessary wedding planning trip.

Also, my dress will be in at the end of July so I am going to make an appointment to go try it on and hopefully take all of my bridesmaids, as Caitlin will be back from Wales for the summer. Wedding planning is moving forward at a rapid pace. I will keep you posted! :)
