  Yeah...sorry about that. I've been pretty busy with Christmas, wedding plans, moving my stuff into the house Jared and I bought, etc. I've really just been preparing for the next step in my life.
  oh yeah, i also graduated. whatevs.
  Still no "real" job, but I've still got my little music business and since my internship ended, I've been freelancing at the magazine when Jodi needs me. It's not much, but it's enough for me. for now. once I get married and have real responsibilities, it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to get a job that actually pays something. As far as craftiness goes, I've finished all the flowers for the wedding, including the boutinnieres and the bridesmaid's bouquets. As far as centerpieces for the reception go, I had planned on doing button trees and I've made 10 total, but I don't have enough materials to do one on every table, so instead, I've started collecting mason-type jars from people. I'm going to group them together on the tables with candles in them for centerpieces. Afterward, the people that want their jars back will get them and the rest will go to recycling.
  I was thinking about how much this wedding is costing me and my family and I'll probably break down the costs in the next post after i've done the math. oh! and this blog will be featured in KSU's feature magazine The Talonafter all! How exciting!
  I've been hanging out on Tumblr a lot lately, so if you have one, my tumblr is tobeapeartreeinbloom.tumblr.com. I basically just post pictures of crap i want to make and cute kittens. /end of rambly post.
