Birthday, Wedding Bands, and Honeymoon Ideas!


Today is Kyle's 25th birthday! YAY!!!!
We somehow managed to throw in some wedding planning fun along with the birthday celebration.

We went over to Darlene's house for lunch (my future mother-in-law!). We talked about some wedding stuff while we were there such as colors and things like that. She came up with some good decorating ideas which sound great!

We were playing around at the Galleria mall killing time before a movie started and we went in Gordon's Jewelers so Kyle could check out some wedding bands. The people at Gordon's have treated us really well over the past 2 years so we immediately went to them. When Kyle purchased my engagement ring from there, it came in a set with the wedding band so that is already taken care of for me but he needs one and needed to see all the different ones available. He tried on a few and decided on the darker tungsten kind with the brushed look. Yay! He said it felt odd to be wearing a ring :). The lady was very nice and wanted to make sure that Kyle did not work with heavy machinery because tungsten requires a special tool to cut off in case something happens. We assured her that he wouldn't be getting his fingers stuck in any computers.

We continued killing time in Barnes and Noble looking at magazines about traveling to the Caribbean and what islands of the world are best to travel to/live on (even though we've pretty much decided what we're going to do for our honeymoon if we get the money to do so).
We decided that we want a cruise and we actually checked out which ones were available. Norwegian Cruise Lines has an 8-day cruise leaving out of New Orleans just 3 days after the wedding which would stop in Costa Maya, Roatan, Belize City, and Cozumel. It looks like the one if we can do it!

Jennifer Woodbery (jwoodbery.com) is our wonderfully talented friend. She has her own photography business and she is taking our engagement pictures for us next month which is so exciting!!!! Yes, we can have engagement pictures after being engaged for 2 years ;).

Also, I plan on trying on wedding dresses for the first time next month!
