Quick Life Updates!

Hello from the lovely land of Wisconsin everyone!

I thought I would shoot out some quick life updates, since our big announcement.

Ready?

May 9

Courtney graduates with her M.Ed.

 

 

 

and proceeds to run through "The Arch" 

(which I had successfully avoided until they called my name and I returned that library book...) 

  

  

  

May 10

Mother's Day AND Mom's Birthday

 

Headed to Atlanta to visit the Aquarium and have some delicious Cheesecake Factory

  

  

 

  

 

May 12

Got in the car with Mom, Dad, Bings, luggage, all sorts of wedding stuff, and three bags of grass seed that they don't sell in the north, or at least in Chippewa...and headed to Wisconsin.

  

 May 16

Packed up family, yet again, headed north to Duluth, Minnesota to see my little sister graduate from the University of Minnesota - Duluth. Yay Ash! (even though it snowed. seriously.)

That is Ash on the right, with her college roommate of all four years, Sara, on the left. They were randomly matched as roommates freshman year, and Ash will be a bridesmaid in Sara's wedding this August.

    

and we proceeded to go out "Duluth-style" to a bar called "Grandma's" where we had a fab time

 

 

For the last couple of days my lovely sister and I have been running wedding errands and playing with Bings.

 

And now, you are up to date!

Dear Everyone,

As you may have heard by now, we got the earth shaking news last week that Austin will be deploying sometime between the June 28 and July 1. Until either October or November.

But wait, I hear you saying, isn't that going to wreck havoc on your July 17 wedding date?

Why yes, yes it is.

So therefore, we have decided to move the wedding to June 12, 2009.

After many, many discussions with friends and family we have decided that this is the best move for us due to  issues such as deposits, and the fear that if we move it back, this whole thing may happen again in 6 months.

June 12 is guaranteed, and that's about as good as we can get, so that's what we are going for. We hope that all of our friends and family that are able will still be able to make it, but completely understand that this is throwing a wrench in everyone's plans, not just ours.

Thank you so much for all of your love, support and understanding through this whole ordeal.

We love you all :)
