July 4th - It was a great weekend! Allan and I spent the weekend with friends BBQing, playing whiffle ball (yes, we're big kids), and enjoying the great weather!
July 11th - Allan and I moved into our new apartment! Last month I found this fabulous 1-bdrm apartment about 30mins away from where my mom lives. It is in a great residential area and close to restaurants and the main strip in town. We officially moved on the 11th with both cats and it was great.

The weekend of July 17th, Allan had his bachelor weekend in Montreal, Canada. Conveniently, It was my maid of honor's birthday so I spent some quality time with her as well as a few other friends. Allan had a great weekend and by the stories he told me..... I'm sure he was exhausted afterwords.
Allan and I received our first few wedding gifts shortly after moving. However, the first two we bought ourselves because we discovered after moving that we really needed them. First, out bedroom set. My old set was well past it's expiration date and needed to be replaced. So we bought the set we registered for. Also, after moving, the vacuum we brought with us broke. We needed a new one, so once again Allan came to the rescue and bought me my prized vacuum that I have been eye-balling for well over a year now. And lastly, Allan's mom was nice enough to purchase our dining room chair covers after we learned that our cats LOVE to use wicker for sharpening their nails.
Over this past weekend my bridal shower invitations went out (or so I'm told). I can't wait to see everyone for it. Also, the wedding invitations are completed and should be sent out next week. I can't wait to see those too! I have only seen a digital version, which of course is not the same.
74 days and counting!
