So last weekend (wow this week has gone fast) Crystal and I attended wedding school, a customary procedure proceeding a catholic church wedding. Wedding school consisted of 2 sessions, the first on Friday evening between 7pm and 10pm and then the second session ran 9 to 5 Saturday. It was actually pretty easy going, and not in any way the vision of torment I had imagined. I’d pictured having to do a presentation in front of the class or an essay on why we were getting married. But it basically consisted of a series of lectures and question and answer sessions, a couple of which were actually pretty informative. Particularly the one about finances and budgeting, which we will hopefully manage to put into practice over the years.
In other news, the wedding plans are still slowly coming together. We finished off creating the invitations, which I have printed, cut and folded, they are just waiting to be addressed and posted now. My next crafty job is to work on the wedding favours, at least I think that’s what they are called, the little gifts for each guest, I have a plan for those. I still need to arrange the suit hire for the boys and work my calender of events out for the time that everyone is over visiting from home. I can’t wait to see everyone!
My immigration plans took a knock today when we couldn’t make it to my medical exam due to the weather. We had freezing rain here this morning, and by all accounts Fredricton, the location of my examination, was hit much worse. It’s not too bad though I managed to reschedule for the 3rd of May, which isn’t too far away.
