Mexican or Souuuuuulllllll!!!!

As I said on my main blog, I didn’t want to turn that into a blog in which I’m discussing the wedding planning every other week. It just made sense to start a complete new one. So here we go! I hope you like the new website!

Our engagement is going to be a year and a half. I guess that’s on the IMG_0162longer side of things, but with multiple trips planned for next year, combined with us not wanting to burden parents with assisting too much on paying for the wedding, it just makes sense for us to have a Summer wedding in June of 2011. I want to help and I definitely plan on helping in the planning of this thing. I’ve never planned one before, so I’m pretty excited. Most of our discussions nowadays revolve around wedding planning, and the only thing that has been officially decided is the food. Yeah!

It’s no secret that Monica and I come from completely different backgrounds. My knowledge of Mexican food was simply tacos growing up. That’s it! However now it consists of chimichangas, enchiladas, chalupas, green chili, etc, etc! I had never tasted that stuff up until three years ago, but now I eat it weekly! Anyway, it’s a given that we have to have Mexican food at the wedding. My fiancé is a very understanding woman though, and she knows that while I do like Mexican food, nothing gives me that warm fuzzy feeling like some great soul food. So we’ve decided that we’re rolling with two options, you can either do Mexican or soul food. Simple!

I know I type a lot sometimes, but I’m going to try and make the posts in this blog much shorter than my other one. It’s still just the same old nutty Chris, but just with a more defined subject matter. So just like my other blog, if you read and wanna comment, cool. If you don’t wanna read, that’s okay too! Lastly, I’m in the process of integrating Facebook with this blog that way you can just use your Facebook username and password to comment instead of creating numerous accounts. Take care all…
