Today was a big day.

Today was a crazy day with lots of exciting steps.

First of all Jared and I signed a lease on our first apartment! That's so crazy. As much as I'm NOT excited about paying ridiculous rent...I'm really excited about our apartment. It's a one bedroom on the 3rd floor...so no one is above us, and so I'll have a killer butt walking up all those stairs. It has a cute little fireplace and an incredible view. I'm so excited to start decorating it. AND...it's acutally ours in 2 weeks. Things are just happening so fast.

Then I drove straight from signing the lease to my first bridal shower. It was really fun. Lots of good food and friends and some great gifts! It was even more exciting opening the presents knowing where were were going to actually live.

We had a lot of fun taking pictures and dancing and all I can say is that our wedding is going to be so much fun! Here are a few of the pictures we took. You can see many more on www.flickr.com/alannamarie.

Oh...and I'm not sure if I've mentioned this in all of my extensive blogs recently...but Jared and I have a website. www.jaredandalanna.com check it out!

All the pictures of us dancing are so funny. I kind of feel old when I see pictures of me dancing. :)
