location... check! one down... many, many more to go

So, Ben and I have been super lazy about wedding planning, as I've mentioned before.  I will tell you what our first official plan is... But first, here is our awesome new vase from CB2.  I found it on a recent trip to Trader Joe's.  They just happen to be right next to each other, which is good when I can find things for only 7 bucks! Yes, that's right, 7 bucks!

We decided on a location!!  The Lawrence Arts Center in Lawrence, Kansas.  Once we had the idea in our minds, it was the only place we could think of having our wedding.  We are getting a good deal and having both the ceremony and the reception there.  It's nice to have something set in stone!  

In other news, my mom is coming to visit this weekend!  Needless to say, I'm pretty pumped.  This means not only mother/daughter fun time, but also mother/daughter WEDDING fun time!  I have yet to try on an actual wedding dress.  Hopefully that will be something we can do.   I will post pictures of our weekend next week!

 Early Valentine's Day flowers from Ben!  So cute!
