Here's the place where you can hear me gush and dish, rant and rave, and everything in between!
Complete wedding OVERHAUL!
Yes, I did it again! I've managed to completley change directions and started planning our wedding...all over again! For years we've been sure about one thing...we'd get married back home in Western Washington with all our friends and family. We (well, mostly me I guess) grew up there. We have good memories there.
