There's plumbing in my water problem...

Oh oh my...

So some of you may know that I have been experiencing leak after leak in my house these last few weeks, some were tiny leaks and some were MAJOR leaks... and as much as I had hoped to avoid having to deal with all of this before the wedding, it looks as if I am dealing with it before the wedding...

So after a $600+ water bill from the county, a plumber and demolition team later...

I am replacing all the pipes in my house. This is NOT FUN. I DO NOT reccomend it. Especially not less than two months out from a wedding date.

So here are some photos of what the house looks like BEFORE we have the work done:

This is the dining room- they cut the walls out in front of the hot water heater- where I previously had a major leak...

This is the wall in one of the guest rooms upstairs- it backs up to a bathroom- so they had to cut the whole length of the wall out to get to the tub/shower and toilet/sink in the bathroom...


This is the back of the tub... and this is the washer hook up in the laundry room...


And the ceiling in the kitchen... oy...


And last but not least a section of the wall in the living room also had to be cut out...
I hope this nightmare is over soon- I really do! I live in a construction zone...

Engagement Photos!

So we had some engagement photos done!
Here is a sneak peak at the fun we had! Hope you enjoy it!




We especially love this one above- as most of you know Zach is an avid mountain biker... so here he is with his two best girls!

I think this photo may be my favorite!



Our photos were done by a wonderful friend: Jennifer J. Vanderwoodsen.

Sick and Tired of being sick and tired!

Arghh... so I have been sick for a bit this month... and frankly I am sick of it!
I am back on the road to recovery though.
I was down with pneumonia this time and in the hospital for about 11 days. I am so glad to be back home! I am now getting back to work for half days and then I should be back up to full speed.
As a result of all this sickness I have put off wedding stuff for a bit-- but I am excited to get back to it! Time is counting down and I am getting more and more excited!
I will post more in a day or two!
Hope everyone else is doing well! And thank you all for all the prayers! I love you!
