Update

I can't believe it's been 6 months since I've blogged, which means 6 months since I've signed into my account and read other various blogs that I dearly enjoy. So tonight I will be catching up on both accounts. For now, here's an update and a new blog. For the sake of not being too lengthy, I'll update you on a few things at a time which will encourage more blogs in the future. I've have quite a bit to talk about.

New Year's Resolutions- I am proud to say that I'm looking pretty good on sticking to my resolutions this year. I've successfully completed 6 of 14 and am continuing to conquer the other 8. Number 2 on my list was to maintain all As in school, and for Spring semester of '10, I've done so. Number 5: apply for as many scholarships as possible. I am spending time each week doing so. A week ago, I was chosen for one that I applied for and it is being presented to me on July 25th! Number 12 on my list was to read 6 books this year: a resolution which has proven to have been set at a low standard seeing as I'm on my 8th so far and am only half way through the year. I read the Harry Potter series and I fear there won't be another fictional series that I enjoy as much. I foresee revisiting the series in the future as well. J.K. Rowling's writing is brilliant; she makes you fall in love with these characters and her plot twists are unpredictable. I've also done some volunteer work this year (Number 14) and intend to continue doing so.

Wedding Plans- They're coming along! Madison and I have finished registering at Bed Bath & Beyond and intend to also register at Target as well as Wal-Mart soon. Our honeymoon has been booked! We are spending 2 days in Paris and 3 in London making for a 7 day honeymoon (including travel). We will depart on the 13th, the day after our wedding, and return on the 20. I'm planning to finish choosing bridesmaids gowns this week as well as beginning to assemble our invites (which we've purchased). This past week we began making a few minor upgrades to the house where we will live for a few years. Right now, we are currently transforming an old junk room into a master bathroom with the help of Jeff & Sheri and my parents. We are also planning on adding a deck onto the back of the house, which really excites me! Other than that, a few closets need to be painted and then all that's left is to rearrange and move in! I'll be sure to blog before and after pictures of our progressions!

That's it for now, but expect more blogs soon. Hope you're all doing well! =)
