Fresh day, Fresh ideas

I've calmed down. It was a momentary lapse in sanity yesterday.  I just had my hopes up, but I guess that happens to us all. So in between working today, I have thought of a couple of other places that I will check on next week (maybe-short weeks at work are always hectic).

This weekend I am going to focus on my sister, brother-in-law, and niece that will be in town. Or. I will focus on my sister, brother-in-law, and niece that will be in town while simultaneously still thinking about the logistics of the other venues. One sounds promising if I want to hold it indoors. Still crossing my fingers for something outside, but at this point I'm not counting anything out.

I was hoping Venue 1 would have tents, chairs, tables, linens, anything that would help ease the cost of rentals. But they didn't. I would basically be paying for a grass field. Granted, it was beautiful, great location and had electricity, but still would be a very large cost for something I am trying to keep affordable and simple. I have even started thinking about not having a DJ...I want the reception to be a blast, but is that really a necessary cost?  I need to talk to my DJ friend and ask him, realistically, what the cost is going to be and see if I can fit in the budget.  I feel like I at least need to have the venue picked out so I can explain more about what I am looking for and the times I would need him/them. 

Engagement picture session #1 will be next Tuesday.  Need to get in touch with JL again and see when we can schedule the fun engagement pictures.  (if you are reading this JL...send a girl an email! ha)

On a completely unrelated-to-wedding note, I got a new computer!  The first post to this blog was the last one I made with my oldie.  That night or the next night, I spilled sweet tea all over it.  Fried some stuff.  Dropped it off with a neighbor, haven't heard anything since.  Great deal on this little girly computer and I am tickled pink!  Happy Labor Day weekend - I hope everyone has an enjoyable time with family and friends this weekend.
