My Grandpa mailed me a bracelet last week that says "Have Fun". It's to serve as a reminder during the whole wedding planning process that the main goal is for us to be happy. I've been focusing on that a lot this week.
*Wedding update: we've decided on the location for our ceremony and reception; so now we're ready to set our wedding date. We are moving it back three weeks to accomodate one of the groomsmen because he is having a baby in March and is flying in from Oregon. The extra few weeks will also benefit my bridesmaid who is having a baby in February. So - it looks like our wedding will be in April 2011!*
In the spirit of having fun, Austin and I fed some ducks last night.
These babies hatched a few weeks ago and have been living in the retention pond behind our apartment.
The momma duck sat back and let the babies eat the bread crumbs.
All the ducks lined up in a row!
We also went on a fun date on Friday night. We browsed the selection of tuxedo rentals at Men's Warehouse, then we ate at Le Petite Paris, my new favorite restaurant. I had the Boeuf Bourguignon, and Austin had Chicken Provencal.
For dessert, we had a PB&G - Peanut Butter & Ganache. The waiter was so cute - he cut the dessert exactly in half - including the pecan!
We ate a fun breakfast this morning! My fiance made us stewed bananas and waffles! They were phenomenal, and reminded us of all the fun we had on our cruise!
"Follow your dreams. Just make sure to have fun too."

I love the bracelet! That's such a wonderful message. All too often we forget about the real purpose in our activities. Life is about enjoyment, fun, friends, family, laughter, and love! Glad you know this!
ReplyDeleteI love ducks -- I collect ducky stuff and my bff is my stuffed duck Herbert. Those are some damn cute ducklings. :)
What a lovely reminder!

Aww such sweet ducks! The waiter would have to cut that dessert in half if I were involved. I'm sure I'd be sneaky and eat a few bites off of P's side!
