T- 2 Weeks and Counting

We're two weeks out from the wedding day! Whoo hoo! :) I'm really excited. I have made our reservation at the hotel in Cincinnati for Saturday evening (10/18) since we fly out early Sunday morning. Did I mention that I'm really excited?

Dress Status:
The final fitting was delayed until this Friday because the seamstress wasn't able to get everything completed. We are go for Friday at 4:30pm for the final fitting. I'm holding the intention that I'll be able to pick it up on or before Tuesday 10/14.

Diocese Status:
I have contacted the church in Germany and heard back from them. Long story short, the initial church information was incorrect, but many thanks to my ex-mother-in-law (a very wonderful woman) who let us know where the correct information was located. I have been in communication with the correct church in Germany and they are in the process of sending a faxed copy of the required documents. Please continue to hold the intent that the copies of this document are received today.

We also received our wedding gift from my sister and her husband. They have paid for us to go on an excursion snorkel trip to the island of Molokini during our stay on Maui. I'm really looking forward to that! Thank you so much Sarah!

Excursions

Last night we booked an excursion for Monday in Kona. Dave has been itching to dive at Kona (not just snorkel) since before we went to Kona a couple years ago. He's finally going to have his chance! We have booked a dive/snorkel excursion for Monday. We're going to be doing a Manta Ray two tank dive. Well, let me correct that...Dave is going to be doing a dive along with friends Sip and Luke. Myself and my parents are going to snorkel. I'm really excited about this and I know my parents are going to be thrilled as well. They've never done anything like this before. The excursion starts in the afternoon with a late afternoon snorkel (or dive for those that are diving). Once the divers are in the water, then the snorkelers get to get in and check out the reef for a while. Then everybody gets out, has some dinner on the boat and then we head over to the second dive site where the Manta Rays feed. This is going to be really awesome!

Glacier Park - Sept 2009

On Sunday, September 6, we flew to Kalispell, MT and spent the remainder of the week hiking around northwestern Montana. We spent 4 days with my aunt and uncle, who live outside Libby, MT. Then we headed to Glacier National Park and enjoyed breathtaking scenery and gorgeous weather! Here are a few photos from our time in Glacier.
