Last Friday Steve had his first baseball game. He's awesome by the way. They won. I took Dewey up there for while, I ended up taking him home though because it was windy and kind of chilly. He loves being around a lot of people. He started squawking when i took him to the car. i think he wanted to stay.
Saturday Steve and I decided we wanted to go to the batting cages. We stopped at K Mart where i bought a pair of batting gloves and my very own bat (i'm cool now btw). We batted for a little bit. I did pretty good, I only missed like 3 softballs that I swung at. Hardball was a different story. I hit like two of them! lol plus one hit me in the hand and one in the thumb...that one still hurts. it felt like my nail was going to fall off. then we went home and took this plastic bat and wiffle balls that we bought to the park. We got home about ten minutes before the hockey game. Steve went into the bedroom to check his email, i followed. I was sitting there on the bed and looked down at my ring. My diamond was GONE! I bet my heart skipped. Fortunately, we have the warranty or whatever where it gets replaced for free. The ball that hit my hand must have hit my ring. I was sooo upset. I took it to JB Robinson right away. Now I have to put off our engagement pics another month while I wait for my ring to come back.
Steve started a new job. He is working at the Kroger warehouse (thanks Rick!!) the money is rather decent and after 60 days he gets a raise. When he gets hired into the union he will have benefits too. Imagine that! lol We are not sure exactly what days he will be working but the hours are 0530-1400ish. He is going to still work at jets a couple nights too for extra cash. I'm so glad to have him home in the evenings now! It's awesome. We can even go play Thursday night hockey now. yay! Not to mention we will have our Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights even if he has to work during the day.
Steve's dad got Tigers tickets for 5/18 vs the Cardinals and asked us if we wanted to go. Well, of course! So, I'm lookign forward to that. They are really good tickets, behind the Tigers' dugout and 12 rows up. I'm bringing my mit! ;o)
Tonight we are going to order our invitations for the wedding. Things are looking up. Just a few weeks ago we didn't even have a chapel reserved and now we are all caught up. Mainly I just need to make sure Sue and Nikki get their dresses and look into flowers. I also need a few more things like a guest book, garter and veil. I want to get my teeth whitened and of course a mani/pedi a few days before the wedding as well.
As I'm sure you didn't notice, I said that I needed to make sure Sue got her dress... That is because my cousin who is supposed to stand up in my wedding isn't returning my calls. I spoke with her a couple months ago and she was having medical issues. Well, she doesn't have insurance and we all know how that goes. I told her that I understand if she can't be in the wedding and that I could find someone else but she assured me that she was going to be in it and it wouldnt be a problem. Wellll, about 15 calls and 5 voicemails later I decided to replace her. Thanks for standing in on late notice Sue!
I'm planning to have some type of gathering probably in the form of a bon fire in July or August so that the wedding party can all get acquainted before the big day. (that not a run-on at all!) Hopefully I can find a day where everyone is available. Too bad that Nikki and Aaron live so far away, I doubt they will be around.
