Summer Schedule, Preliminary Party Info

4.17.11

As you all know I'll be taking the fall semester off. I wanted to let you know that my summer schedule is set. I'll be taking classes from May 16th to June 24th. So, no school between June 24th and January. Holy crap! What this also means as that after June 24th I want to start collecting decorations, working on favors, collecting music, etc and for that I'll be needing your help! I'll be working 4-5 days during this period to try and accumulate both monies and leave time. I'm not sure what my off days will be during this time but I'd like to try and get a combination of weekday/weekend days. We'll see.

Questions about the Bach party. Should I start planning this? When would you ladies like to do it? If Sanibel is still on the table I'd like to let Marcie know a possible date so she can plan for us being there. The place has one king bed, two singles, and a couch that folds out into a full. I can also get an air mattress if we need one. The condo has a full kitchen so we can buy groceries and eat in for most of our meals so it wouldn't be so expensive. I'd be happy to bring a supply of food for you ladies! It's just a 5 minute walk to the beach too and the gulf is beautiful. There's also a nice pool. We have GIANT umbrellas if you're the type that wants to avoid the sun at all costs! Hee hee. If you do want to go to Sanibel we would probably have to go during the summer and should probably plan to be there for a couple of days. They usually rent the condo out during the fall and winter months, so we might not be able to use it then. Keep in mind that it is a 7 hour drive. If you're not comfortable with that or the idea in general and you'd rather do something in September or October we could do something in town.

Quick update on planning: Aaron is going to contact the hotel this week to book our rooms for out of town guests. We decided to go with the Quality Inn and Suites because it wasn't that much more expensive, but was much nicer. It is almost directly across the street from the venue. Aaron also contacted his uncle about a cake stand and is waiting to see what he has to say about it. Laura is working on caterer stuff. The other plans for this week include nailing down the Save the Date cards. I'm also going to order my dress. Eeeeee! And maybe get a tattoo. Eeeeee!
