Andy has been all about the Save the Dates lately. I asked him to get together his guest list and how many save the dates he'd need. We're also meeting with a caterer this weekend so we need a good idea of what we're thinking.

At dinner with Brittany and Kristin yesterday we were discussing STD's. Kristin told us about photo magnet puzzles. Turns out that most of them are two pieces with cheesy messages like "we're a perfect fit". If I do puzzles its gotta be a little bit challenging. Also, they're like $4 a piece.

Apparently, today Andy and his best man Nate were continuing this conversation. First, Andy told me that he and Nate decided they should just send out facebook  messages instead and funnel all that extra money into the liquor budget. Then, I came across this gem that Nate posted on his wall...
Andy: "You know whats stupid...save the dates. why do you need a pre-invitation? its like having a shirt before the shirt"

Nate: "A shirt before the shirt is totally necessary"

Andy: "ya thats true... but still."

um... was that a Jersey Shore reference? I think it was !!! Welp, Jersey Shore is on in 3 minutes so I better post this and get to fist pumping.

*** If you don't watch Jersey Shore, sorry this makes no sense.
 
Andy and I are going to a wedding in two weeks for his friends Dan and Teresa. Tonight we were talking about how we need to get them a present! Of course, we need to figure out where they are registered.

I start by googling Teresa's name and quickly found a link on the wedding channel to their Macy's registry. Andy at the same time decides to just text Dan. He quickly finds out that they're also registered at Bed, Bath and Beyond.

Once Andy gets over the amazement that I just looked up their registry without knowing anything other than Teresa's name, we begin to ponder what to buy from their registry when Andy says "lets get them something from ....Beyond".

In other news, we're getting closer to figuring out our reception plans. I'm going in a few weeks to see the Ezell Hose all set up for a wedding! Chelsea also sent me another wedding book and my Martha Stewart Wedding subscription from Kelly arrived! Andy has been reading the book from Chelsea and learning about all sorts of things he didn't know went on at weddings (aka the receiving line and hiring a calligrapher).  More soon!
 
I promise I'll give you the 5 Rivers update later tonight but over lunch today I'm going with something different.

Andy is cracking me up! After going to the Ezell House I'm looking for more pictures of the place. The director Amy told me that once I've been there I'll start to recognize it in photos on photographer sites. So, I started to look at Mobile area photographers to see if they have Ezell House pictures. I sent Andy a link to a local photographer who had a few Ezell House pictures.

Shortly after I received this IM from Andy:

"
i always look stupid in pictures and i hate when people like stare off at nothing. what the f*** are you looking at people"

"
i love you, but im not gonna lie i have never once stared off into space to think how much our love means to me"

"and that guy takes a lot of engagement photos in the middle of the street thats just not safe"

I guess this pretty much sums up the male perspective on all things photos. Its cracking me UP!

 
Any of you that have been hanging around Andy and I the last year or so know the following...
 - We love LOST
- anytime anyone asks us if we were gonna get married Andy would say 2017 unless I agreed to a LOST themed wedding and then he'd think about a year or two sooner.

Now, Andy and I are actually getting married we're contemplating dates. Andy just asked Shanna and Joe if they thought October 8 or 15th would be better. After a little discussion, Shanna tells Andy that we can't go wrong either way since we're going with "the numbers". If you don't watch LOST I won't even bother to explain. But if you do know what I'm talking about then look out, Andy's subconsciously trying to LOST theme our wedding. He was very excited when Shanna pointed this out.

Live Together, Die Alone.
