I'm SO not good at keeping this blog updated. Things have been pretty busy since the last post - 7 whole months ago! I'm not going to backtrack seven months, mostly because it was a blur.
The big thing that happened over the course of that time included wedding preparations and the actual wedding! Truss and I were married June 16, 2012 - it was a great day and we had a lot of fun celebrating with family and friends! Wedding planning wasn't my cup of tea - the total opposite feeling than I thought I'd have. Lots of decisions, lots of attention and a lot of work, to be honest! Truss will happily agree with me on this one! However, along the wedding planning there were many fun moments and great excuses to hang out with friends!
We encountered such generosity from friends and family during that time. We had six or so showers which included a luncheon, cinco de mayo themed party, a stock the bar shower and a bachelorette party hosted by my sister in Austin. That was a blast and she did such a great job!
The wedding day flew by as expected, but I really remember most everything. We're expecting our video back in the next few months - that will help fill in a few fuzzy moments, I'm sure! We went to Costa Rica after the wedding and stayed for 8 relaxing days. It was gorgeous and we had a great time!
The other big thing that occurred a few weeks ago was me starting a new job. I was offered a job at KidsTLC, a nonprofit in Olathe. I am their new Development Director. It's an odd feeling to do something totally new after being at the same company for more than six years, however I was ready for a change. This new job will be challenging, but I'm ready for it and excited!
We are currently trying to sell Truss' house - it's been on the market since April. He had the entire home repainted, floors redone and there is a new A/C and heater - what more could you want?! There have been a ton of showings, but the slanted floors in the dining room are turning people off. It's an old house people!! We've dropped the price significantly and are just waiting for the right person to come along. Sooner than later, please...
That's it for now. I'll post wedding photos once we get them back.
