Abandonment Much?
I know it looks like I have abandoned blogging all together, but truth is I am doing it now more than ever! I’m just not doing it here. Instead I have been blogging my little butt off over on Weddingbee.com! I’m Miss Cloud!
I realize that unless you are fully engrossed in planning a wedding the way I am, you might not have ever heard of Weddingbee before. Well, it is a community of brides who blog about the trials and tribulations of the planning process. I had been religiously following the bee since we were engaged last year, and after a LOT of encouragement from Brian, I decided to start my own blog and apply to become a Bee myself. And after a few weeks, I heard back and was accepted! It’s been a truly awesome experience so far, I’ve had the chance to “meet” so many people and blabber on and on all about the wedding to other brides. Please feel free to go check it out, but I warn you I divulge a lot of details of our upcoming wedding, so if you will be attending and want to be surprised, stay away!
Brian has also been really busy these past few months. He was promoted at the T-Mobile call center to a Senior Rep position putting him into the role of management and all of the responsibilities that come with (ie. very long hours!) but I couldn’t be more proud of him! In the past few months since his promotion, while working with a new team they moved from the very last spot in the center’s ranking to tenth overall!
Other then work and blogs, it has been wedding central in our apartment. An engagement ring should really come with a disclaimer: “wedding supplies will soon take over every spare inch of your living quarters”. We are learning to live with it though, and Bella loves all the new stuff to sniff! 76 days to go!!
Even Bella thinks this wedding stuff is exhausting!

Happy Memorial Day!
It's Brian again, here to wish everyone a happy Memorial Day! Katie and I had a great day. We made it to the early morning sale at Michael's craft store (which was super exciting for me....), had breakfast at Bob Evan's, stopped at Joann Fabrics (another great stop for me), purchased some steaks and came home to grill them up and watch The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. It was a great day and I wish we could have more days like that. We hope everyone had a great cookout, or at least a great day off!
New York, New York
Hey all, Brian here.... We recently took a road trip to New York to watch my mom graduate from SUNY Fredonia! The drive was pretty quick and we made it to town a day early to see friends and relax a little bit. On friday night we went to my buddy Jason's house for a "fire." This was quite an experience for Katie.... The best part was when Jason started to pour a random liquid onto the wood and Nick says "...What's that?" and Jason replies with "a mixture of gasoline and used motor oil." The look on Katie's face was priceless, especially when Jason said "You may want to back up, this might make a pretty big boom." Haha
On Saturday we watched my mom graduate! I got to see my Aunt Mary for the first time since my sister's wedding which was very nice. The graduation ceremony was wonderful and we all went to lunch at a local hotel with my mom afterwards. We were all very proud of her!
That night we went to Shawbucks which is a local bar in Jamestown. Thankfully there was a very good band playing by the name of Porcelain Bus Drivers. We met up with a few friends, Amber, Barry, Nick and Mike Sorce. It was a great time. We all drank a few too many and had a good time with the camera.... We gave the camera to Mike Sorce for a while and he took a bunch of hilarious pictures......but lets all take a look at something... Katie is always smiling in every picture! It is always nice to go home to NY.... that place never changes!

Road Trip!
Granted in this picture Bella doesn't look too stoked, but its just because she's like me and likes to sleep through the actual driving part! And yes, she has her own car seat, is anyone really surprised? :)

It's BRIAN!
Stop the presses!
I'm finally posting another blog post. It's only been 10 months since my last post and since katie has been "busy" I am here to pick up the slack. (love ya babe!)
We've had a big few weeks! Last weekend I finally bought a Craftsman buffer and spent all day buffing my car. Although a new paint job would be ideal, this buff job will have to do for now.
I also helped katie construct some of her custom thank-you cards. She says I'm co-owner of babybubba ink.... but all I do is mess everything up. Everytime I tried to use the can of spray-glue it would blow all of the cards off the newspaper!
On Saturday April 18th, we joined katie's maid of honor Dawn in the MS Walk! It was alot of fun. Dawn brought her dog "Diva" and we brought Bella. On top of that, Dawn's father brought his little weiner dog named "Tater". Dawn even made them matching t-shirts! We walked for three miles and I think the dogs handled it better than we did! (well, at least me)
Crossing the finish line!!!
Shortly after crossing the finish line, hahahaha
aaaaaand shortly after that, loving the A/C!
There was also a dog show that katie decided to enter Bella and I into. I had to show off one of her best tricks. I tried to get her to do the "sit, lay, head down" trick... She did it, but it wasn't very clean. But we plan to practice for next year!
Well it has been fun, maybe I'll post again in 10 months.... :)
