Living it up…

I want to talk about something that is going on in my life as of yesterday, but I also don’t want to.
It doesn’t have anything to do with not wanting to share it, it’s just really sad and I haven’t wrapped my mind around it yet. I was hoping when I went to my sister’s blog today that I would find she had already took care of it, but she wrote about a good time in our lives.

Today we went and put the down payment down on the place we are going to get married. The kids got all excited when we showed them the upstairs where we would be getting our dresses on and the stairs we would be walking down.
Shaun had convinced them earlier that the place was haunted so it was fun to watch them jump everytime we entered a new room.

After signing the contracts I went looking for my family.
They were all downstairs in the ‘Groom’s Closet’. This a room below the house that is a non functioning bar with a pool table, pinball machine and foozball. I would like to think that my mom and sister would be hanging out with me upstairs while I get ready for the wedding, but I can already see my mother downstairs pretending she can’t play a lick of pool and then taking all the guy’s money after she smokes them with her patented ‘corner pocket shot’.

It’s starting to all feel real …and I’m getting excited.
