Seventy-nine days and counting!

Phew. I feel like just a couple weeks ago I was posting about it being 5 months until our wedding, and here we are, less than 3 months away! Where has all the time gone?

There is still so much to be done that it makes my head spin. I'll think of one thing that needs to be done and start working on it, but inevitably it will lead to something else, and then something else...I need like 5 of me right now to work on the various tasks.

In exciting news, my bridesmaids' dresses should start arriving in the next couple of weeks! And the groomsmen have already started purchasing their suits! Since I last posted, I've picked out all the flowers, hired a DJ, Philip has his suit accessories, the wedding shower is planned for January 24th, we're working on centerpieces and decorations...everything is moving! My next orders of business include figuring out how to decorate and arrange the reception space, figuring out and purchasing or making wedding favors, getting my invitations addressed, and ordering rental items.

...

There is seriously too much involved in weddings. On the bright side, I've gotten several new dresses for the various events I am to attend! Thank you, modcloth.com. Is it too girly to be excited about new clothes? Oh well.

But to top it all off...yesterday I received a job offer in Fort Worth, which I have accepted. More on it later, for we are still ironing out the details. But I'm excited! So now, on top of everything else, I'm looking for a place to move and a place to board my ponies and I'll probably be moving at the end of the month.

Go large or go home. That's my motto (apparently).

Since I've stressed myself out writing about everything there is to be done, let's calm things down with animal updates. During the holidays I took Rosa home with me and boarded her at my old stable. We got lots of good rides in, and I was very pleased with how she worked. I even had someone tell me to let them know if I decided to sell her, they liked her so much (and so now I'm like, hmm, maybe I should).

At the barn, Philip made friends with Bentley, a Saint Bernard that I had to force myself not to steal when I left.

Holding my purse, what a stud

 Romeo decided to join Rio on my parents' leather couch when he thought we were all gone:

He has the most expressive "I've been caught" face

Chica got a new halter that coincidentally matches her new blanket:

And the other night, possibly after a glass of wine, I decided to try to sneak pictures of everyone while they were asleep.

Fiona:

She never even knew

Romeo:

Passed out

And...Ramses...oops:

"I beg your pardon!"

A couple of pictures of Rosa and we'll have everyone here!

Her bridle path has been clipped since this picture. Sorry to not cover my shame.

Happy pony

Happy 2015! I hope it's a great year for you.
