Monday March 6, 2006 - More Wedding/House Fun

This past weekend Steve and I had the pleasure of getting deeper into the wedding plans. Saturday morning we met with Father O'Keefe to review the results of the FOCUS questionnaire we completed a few months ago which looks at our compatability and readiness for marriage. We passed! It was interesting to see that we were very strong in communication and yet we have very different styles of solving problems.

Next, we met with the organist to start determining what songs to play during the ceremony. It was great to see what the largest organ in the state of IL can do! We are still narrowing down some of our selections and need to talk things through with our 3 vocalists (Kate, Jeanne and Deanna) - but I think we are well on our way. Plus it is always a good sign when not only do I get a little teary-eyed hearing the music that will play as I walk down the aisle - but Steve did as well.

After depositing the pup at a friend's house for the night - we are started on a new project of painting the townhouse. Let's just say no one is going to hire me as a professional painter - and I am just fine with that! We were able to get through the living room (with the exception of the closet). The color is called grey beige - which looks purple when you first apply - but turns to kind of well - a grey beige when it dries. I am glad we are able to try this stuff out on a house that we are selling. I can't imagine how nerve racking it will be to do this at 108!

Monday morning started off a bit slow - but we are looking forward to more house selling fun this week!
