Well, we finally booked our wedding venue this week! Which also means we finally have a wedding date! We have booked October 3, 2009 for the ceremony and reception at the Earle Brown Heritage Center in Brooklyn Center, MN. *sigh* What a relief! Now I can start working on things again! I want to start making Save the Date cards as soon as possible, so now is the mad hunt for finding addresses!
On an un-wedding related note, we are still toilet training the cat. His trainer is up ON the toilet now, where it should be, instead of on the floor. We'd gone over a week with it on the floor with no accidents, so this weekend, it has been moved to its proper toilet training place. Hopefully Odin doesn't have too much of a hissy fit about it.
We're set to get quite a bit of snow this weekend. It started snowing early this morning, and is still lightly coming down. The roads aren't completely covered, but aren't completely clear, either. I'd like to get out of the apartment and do some stuff today.
Thursday night, Lori, one of my co-workers, and I went to the Holidazzle, which is like a parade of lights, in downtown Minneapolis. We did a happy hour before that at a pub called The Local, which is really cool, and then walked down to the Hot Seats (bleachers set up under a tent with a clear front) and got hot cocoa. Mmm, mmm, good! The parade was really cute, and fun. We couldn't hear most of the music because of being in the tent, but that's okay. All the floats and people on the floats were covered in colored lights, very festive.
Aaron and I have just a tiny bit of Christmas shopping left to do, and then we're done! Thank goodness. I don't think we've even stepped foot inside a store to do any of our shopping, which is always nice, because I hate crowded malls filled with people milling about, in my way. Ugh. Drives me crazy.
We have two short weeks in a row at work, for Christmas and New Years, so that will be nice, because it means two 4-day weekends in a row! Aaron and I don't have any plans, but we've been invited to a friend's house for dinner on Christmas, which will be nice if we go. Nice to get out of the place, because I know otherwise, we would just sit in the apartment all four days, staring at each other blankly, slowly going insane. Two weekends in a row. *shudder*
Only kidding!
Well, I am off to figure out what we are going to do for the day. Adios!
