To get married in Wisconsin, you need a marriage license, and to get one of those, you need birth certificates. We probably waited a bit too long to take care of this. Dana just got hers last week, and we went to Madison to get mine, and while the paperwork has all been filed, I’m still waiting for mine to show up in the the mail. I actually got two of them, since I may need to submit one for a passport. You know, in case we ever need to leave the country…
This was a hard decision to make, but we thought long and hard about it. We’ve decided to postpone our rummage sale.
Typically held in May, we had planned on having it in June, but there’s just too much going on! So July it is!
We’ll post a note when we have a definite date, but the rummage sale is now set for July. That should leave June wide open for final wedding planning.
Sorry we haven’t posted lately, but we’ve been extremely busy fishing, and digging up fossils, and writing letters. Yes, we’re obsessed with playing Animal Crossing on the GameCube.
Dana has a huge house, and is awesome at fishing and digging up fossils. I on the other hand, have a modest little shack, and can occasionally catch a fish.
Oh, the kids play too sometimes…
In pete + dana news, Pete has been hired by Z2 Marketing + Design, an amazing company located in Delafield, Wisconsin…
They’ve got him doing all sorts of stuff, from desktop & network tech support, to building web sites, with more in store.
Pete is happy to have a job he loves and be working with people he respects. Hooray for satisfying work!
We had a nice Valentine’s day. Actually, we waited until the weekend and went out for a nice dinner at Point Comfort Place in Okauchee. We really didn’t give each other expensive gifts, as we are saving up for the wedding, but Dana gave me the best valentine I’ve ever received, so it was quite the memorable night…
Wow, so Pete and I picked our wedding day…not arbitrarily…but, well we didn’t put a HUGE amount of thought into it. I mean, June is the COOLEST month of the year (says the June baby engaged to another June baby) and everything; so, that definitely played a part…
But then, today, while listening to my nerd radio, I mean NPR, I got cosmic assurance as to the greatness of our upcoming wedding day. In a short interview on “Day to Day,” Cliff Arnall, a British psychologist, claimed that today, January 22, is the most depressing day of the year. But, and here’s where it really gets interesting, we should fear not because the happiest day of the year, according to his calculations, is just around the corner–That’s right! You guessed it! The happiest day of the year is going to be June 22!!
It was definitely going to be the happiest day in our lives…but now it can be the happiest day in yours too!
