Mawwage is what bwings us togethew today

Well, the big day is 12 days away. Yesterday my client at the spa mentioned, "you seem so calm for getting married in two weeks!" I just smiled. You see, she was experiencing calm, cool massage therapist Adrienne. Not normal wedding planning Adrienne. Normal wedding planning Adrienne went back to Salt Lake that evening. She went to her fiance's house to work on invitations and sleep. Later on she found out her fiance had made plans for Sunday to meet with his ecclesiastical leader. She had, without telling him, expected him to come to her parent's house instead. So, unlike any normal person who would have just thought it to be a minor inconvenience and moved on, wedding planning Adrienne flipped out. She started crying because he didn't "love her enough." Then ten minutes into the tantrum she realized she was in fact, in a tantrum. The mayhem got worse as she realized she was being overly emotional and started crying about how she felt crazy.

Poor Justin. I realize that a lot of burden is put on women when they plan weddings because it takes a lot of work. But I must say the load is shared equally when the man has to listen to a crazy, emotional woman all day long flip out when minor details turn into huge deals.

Other updates: We got an apartment! I'm currently living in it, sleeping on a mattress pad on the floor... but hey, whatev. We live in the beautiful Avenues four blocks from my sister, Caroline Hulet and her husband Jordan. We are also two blocks from Justin's grandmother, Iris. It's really a beautiful one bedroom apartment across the street from a bike shop (Justin's dream come true) and a 7-11 (also Justin's dream come true). We are three blocks from a spa, coffee shop and bakery (my dream come true). We live about K street and 3rd avenue.

Also, our engagement pictures are done! Are awesome photographers did a stellar job. I would HIGHLY reccommend them to anyone. ambphotocompany.com is their website. Some of our pictures are posted on their blog.

The other thing I'm way excited for: My Aunt Liz and her son, my cousin Mike are coming to the Open House from New Jersey and Denver! I'm so excited to see them and am so grateful they are willing to travel that far for us.


Invitations are almost done. If you don't get one, it's because you didn't give us your address. So don't be offended. :) Anyone is invited to the Open House. It will be Friday, November 21st from 6-8 pm in Millcreek at the wardhouse. About 3800 South Hillside Lane (2600 East).

That is so cool that you have a place in the avenues. Mine and Tim's first apartment was on the corner of 2nd avenue and K street, so you are right next to it!!! then we bought a condo on 5th avenue between K and L. I loved it up there! You will love it too.

just remember, the female side of the mcavoy family is crazy - it's in our biological substrate - so just accept it and move on. In fact, just embrace it and love yourself...all pink and sweet. Love you!!
