I hate Shakespeare… I think it is the dumbest thing on the planet (besides shoes). I know that he lived a long time ago, but I wish that he would just speak normally, instead of using all of these metaphors and old English words. I just found out that one of my favorite movies, ‘10 things I hate about you’ is based on ‘The Taming of the Shrew’. Weird.


So we sent out our invitations last night, if you don’t get one that means we don’t like you. Jake is relieved because he thinks that this means we get to relax now that they are sent out! HA! Apparently he doesn’t know about the other many of things we have to do, but he will…(insert evil laugh here).We seem to be having a problem with deciding the things that should be the easiest for us. For instance, we cannot flipping decide on our first dance, I think this is because music is such an important part of both of our lives, we cannot find anything perfect that fits us. When we first started dating we had this thing about parking in an empty parking lot at night and dancing in the empty lot to music (it was fun). So one night we decided that we needed to pick a song that was ‘ours.’ We picked ‘At Last’ by Etta James, it is an amazing classic love song and probably one of the top first dance songs. So that has been our song for the last 3 ½ years. But I don’t like it anymore, it doesn’t make sense for us. The first part of the song goes like this,

“At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over”

That is not us at all, we both dated probably 3-4 people before each other and we are young, so it’s not like we’ve been waiting forever to find love. I don’t know, we just cannot find a song that represents us and who we are as a couple. Then we are having a photography issue. I want to be able to have full access to the pictures to be able to edit them myself, and that is usually not possible. These are two things that we care about a lot so we are having a lot of trouble deciding what to do. We will figure it out though and it will be awesome!

What about "This is the Best Thing" by Relient K? It's not super romantic, but I think it fits you guys pretty well.

We had the same wedding song dilemma. Mike ended up choosing for us, a song I had never even heard before, but it was really cool letting him pick it and being surprised.

By the way, I have been meaning to tell you that I am so sorry I couldn't come to your shower... I RSVP'd thinking that we would get back from Flagstaff on Sunday with the Jr. High kids in plenty of time, but it turned out that we didn't get home til about 3:30. I told Brittany to tell you why I wasn't there, hopefully she did! I am sending in my wedding RSVP today, I can't wait! I'm so excited for you guys :)
