If you look at the count down it now says 6 months :-) It is all I think about! I am so excited, about everything I can hardly stand it! This weekend was very wedding orientated; we got SO much done. Asante worked Saturday so my day started at David's Bridal where I bought my dress. I had a whole entourage to help me out: My mom, both grandmas, two bridesmaids and a flowergirl. The dress my bridesmaids will be wearing is final and we picked out a flowergirl dress. I didnt take pictures of my dress or the flowergirl dress becuase they match so both will be a surprise! It was a complete success... even my mom found a dress!!

I only have two pictures on my phone but will have more of her soon!

Saturday evening was my cousin, Michael's 15th Birthday party. Asante got off at 6:30 so we met there for dinner. We were able to hand out save the dates to all of my family. All the others will be in the mail this week :-)
Sunday was just as good, just as busy!
I made breakfast Sunday morning before we headed out to the bridal show at the Overland Park Convention Center. If you go back to a blog, maybe even my first one, from around this time last year, I talk about going to this same show. Last year I won $500 and booked our photographer, Angela, with it. Well this year.... WE WON AGAIN!! Both Asasnte and I were so excited and soooo shocked!! It is pretty obvious that we are ment to be married :-) Not that there was any question before! This year we used the money for a deposit on a DJ and a Trolley. I am not sure what I was more excited about, the money or the fact that we are going to have a trolley!!! The only downfall is that I didn't get any pictures! I am hoping there will be some on the Kansas City Perfet Wedding Guide website that I can use.
After the show we went to rent a storage space because we are moving in with Grams in about two weeks. Our plan is to start moving stuff we wont be needing to storage this week. From the storage unit we went to Asasnte's work because they had their 4G launch and we had to know how that went ;-) Luck us that we did becuase Men's Warehouse happens to be right next door. We decided to go in and just have a look... we ended up picking out all of the mens outfits for the wedding!
Monday was Valentine's Day. I took the day off so it was like we got to have a real weekend...two days off in a row together!! I couldnt ask for a better gift! We didnt do much besides spend time together. We drove around to price fish tanks. We have a 55 gallons tank now but our fish are out-growing it so we are thinking about getting a 75 gallon tank to move into grams'. We didnt end up buying a tank but maybe in the near future. Other than that we just hung out at home. I made tacos for an early dinner because Asante had class. While he was at class I started boxing up stuff we dont use on a daily basis... I only got 3 boxes done before I ran out of tape :-( We have a lot more to go.
Hopefully next weekend will be just as productive!!
