Just As I Thought

Well just as I thought, I didn't get into the Communication Disorders program. Now I am planning on waiting until Austan finds out if he is getting deployed or not and then going to decide from there what I will do about school. Moving is now a possibility. :S

On a positive note, I did order Austan's wedding ring today and it will be in within 6 weeks, so we are getting closer and closer to getting married!! The cake topper and chocolates that we ordered should be in pretty soon also.

Always Waiting on Something....

Well Austan made it to Bridgeport last night after an 8 hour bus ride and of course has no service to call. He did buy a 600 minute calling card before he left the desert in case this did happen, so I have talked to him a couple times since he has been there. They didn't do much today other than get more gear, but I am sure that the training will begin soon.

I have been waiting to hear if I have gotten into the Communication Disorders program for a couple weeks now and many people I know have already gotten their acceptation letters, so I am hoping for the best. Our mailbox was knocked down by a semi a couple weeks ago and now we have a new one up, but the mailman can't get to it, so they have been holding our mail. Mom is going tomorrow to the post office to see if it is there. I really don't think that I will get in because of my GPA, but still wanting to know for sure. If I don't get in I really need a Plan B in my life because I am now a junior and have all gen ed finished. I don't want to be in school for ever and don't want to take classes just because. I have been trying to think of something I can do with my life as far as a career and can't come up with anything that I think I would in enjoy more than being a speech therapist.

Well I am glad tomorrow is Friday and have the weekend to look forward too, I am hoping to go look at my wedding dress on Saturday to make sure everything is right with it. I am so excited about that, even if school always has me down!!!

My Wedding Dress Came In!!!

When I got off work yesterday I went a few different places and then when I came back to the apartment my phone I had fell out of my pocket in the car. So when I decided to text Austan I couldn't find it and finally figured out that it was in my car. When I went to get it out I had a voicemail and it was Erin from Bridals of Regiss Park letting me know that my wedding dress had came in. I was so excited because when I ordered it they told me that it would take 4 to 6 months before it would get here. I ordered it is November so it only took 3 months. Now mine, Mom's, Claire's, and the bridesmaid's dresses are all in. All we need now is a wedding date. Austan has said that he is suppose to found something out at the end of this month about when and where is he going, so we are keeping our fingers crossed that he actually will.

He leaves on Wednesday for Bridgeport, which is in Northern California, for cold weather training and will be gone for 3 weeks. I am hoping that he will have cell phone service because I have gotten spoiled to being able to talk and text him several times a day.

While Austan was home over Christmas we got our engagement pictures taken by Mike Ingram, which he is wonderful, and I am sure that most have already seen them, but here are a few of my favorites...

We NEED a Date!!

I always seem to forget or put off writing....

Last Saturday, Mom and I went to the bridal show that was here in Bowling Green. We had a really good time and got a lot of good ideas for the wedding planning that isn't coming along too well. We can't seem to find a date for sure because of Austan. They haven't even been scheduled to deploy yet and who knows when they will be or if they even go now and as everyone knows you can't really plan a wedding without a date. But we are just taking one day at a time and hoping for the best.
