August at last!

24 days! Never have I been so excited for the end of summer.

Things continue to come together. Devon's wardrobe is finally complete, except for the boutonniere obviously. But I've got some of the (dried) flowers for that and I've been pinning ideas and tutorials like crazy.

My dress is on it's way. I am pretty much useless with excitement and anticipation. Shar has been working so hard to get it finished in time and I am so grateful for her dedication. My dad was so sweet to ask her to make this dress for me. It's so fun to see my design come to life! Maybe one day I'll learn how to make clothes myself, but not for a long while.

Devon has moved into our new apartment and has been bachelor-padding it up for the past week and a half. We don't have much in terms of furniture yet, so it kind of looks like he's squatting. An IKEA trip is in our future.

Sometimes with all of the checklists that we still have to conquer it's easy to forget the root of all of this. But soon we will be starting a new family together. And that's pretty fantastic.
