Less than 6 months to go!!

Sorry I've been missing in action for a bit. Monica and I took a trip to DC and helped my parents move back to Colorado. It wasn't the smoothest move, but we made it and as you can see from the picture we took on the right, DC's tourist areas are still incredible!

We have another change to the wedding party, and we promise it's the final one. Monica's cousin, Jennifer Martinez-Almanza (think that name is long enough!?) is now a bridesmaid. I'm happy about this selection because Jenn is definitely one of my faves in Monica's family even though she likes crappy boxers, lol. Jenn's house is where the bridal shower is being hosted, and I'm sure she'll be an integral part in planning the bachelorette party. We love her, and you can see her great pic in the Wedding Party section of the site right now!

Only other things going on is dress shopping, dress shopping, and a little bit more dress shopping, lol. Monica has officially ordered her wedding dress, and unfortunately despite my best efforts, she hasn't cracked and I still haven't seen it. All I know is some wedding designer, Da Vinci, is the one that made it. I'm sure she'll look incredible. Also I know all the ladies are going shopping for dresses on Friday. We're 155 days from the wedding!

Finally, does anyone know of any cool wedding traditions? As a testament to my heritage, we're going to 'jump the broom' following the ceremony. Monica and I haven't looked that much, but what kind of traditions during a ceremony are used by Hispanics? Let us know! That's all for now! Laters!!

Correction: I mentioned Weld County in my previous blog. Thanks to Catherine for letting us know that Loveland is actually Larimer County! Oops! I have contacted Larimer and everything is still a go! Glad we didn't show up at Greeley trying to get a wedding license. Thanks C!!!
