Richard and I had our engagement photo shoot with Jonathan on Sunday. When we woke up, it was pouring rain and my heart sank. As the day went on, it got brighter and brighter, and by 5:30 it was actually sunny. I don't know which god to thank, but I'll go with the Egyptian sun god Ra, just for kicks.
We started off at the playground at Steveston Community Centre, where we played on the swings. We then moved to the pier at the end of No.1 Road, before ending up at Garry Point.
We both had an awesome time, and cannot wait to see the photos. Hopefully they're amazing!

Saving the date
I didn't realize it was hard to find the proper colour of purple for the save the date words. I think I've printed out the wording seven times trying to find the perfect shade, but I think I've finally found it.
The guest list is coming together slowly. Richard and I have completed ours, so now we're just trying to coordinate schedules for the two sets of parents to get together and finalize the list so I can print the correct number of cards and get them all addressed so I can send them in early October.
In other news, I've got emails out to a few wedding commissioners regarding officiating our wedding. I suppose that's an important part huh?
We've also finalized our processional music for the boys, girls and myself. We now have to find about 45 minutes of music to be playing while the guests arrive and are seated, so we're thinking some basic background music, nothing too fancy or overwhelming.
Our engagement photos are on Sunday! I'm really looking forward to them.

One more year!
This time next year Richard and I will be married! We'll have walked down the aisle, said our vows and sealed it with a kiss.
We've been engaged for nearly six months now, and it's gone by ridiculously quickly. I can only hope that the next year will do the same. We've done so much in preparing for it already, and I can't wait to see it all come together next year.
I'm on vacation until August 17, so I'll be spending the next couple days organizing our guest list and laying out the save the date cards. Hopefully I'll be able to get all the cards printed, and then have a ribbon tying party to finish them all up. I'm planning to send them out in early October, but I may as well get them all printed at least so I don't need to worry about them once I get back to work.
364 days to go (because it's now after midnight)!
