Don't get your hopes up

For those of you who actually see and read these last two posts, don't get your hopes up, this does not make me a blogger and I probably won't blog again for a while, I just felt like not focusing on what I'm supposed to be focusing on. :) Bad Mary!

Ruby Valley Open House

Well, the time has flown by and here we are just a few days away from the open house. After the second call from someone needing directions I thought I would add another direction thing on here for the Ruby Valley open house.

Coming from Salt Lake -
Take I-80 W until you get to Wells, Nevada.
Exit 352A for US-93
Turn Left on 93 (go for 28.2 miles according to google maps)
Turn Right on NV-229
You'll follow that road for a while until you come to a stop sign (the stop sign is where the road becomes parallel with the mountains instead of perpendicular to them). About 5 miles after that you'll see a big red barn on the left side of the road across from a big white house, that's the place. Find a parking spot and you're there.


Coming from Elko -
Head East on I-80
Take exit 321 Right for NV-229 toward Halleck/Ruby Valley
Continue on this road until you see the big red barn on the left and the big white house on the right. It's about 35 miles from the turn off to the house. Find a parking spot and come enjoy some grub.

Hope to see as many of you as possible! Sooner or later I'll get around to posting about the wedding and honeymoon - we just gotta finish getting everything ready for this open house.

Reception in Dallas

I realized this morning that I should probably put some reception information up on this! Our reception in Dallas is going to be on June 14th from 7-8:30 P.M. at the Carrollton Senior Center. 1720 Keller Springs Rd. Carrollton, TX 75006. I look forward to seeing you there!





I also want to apologize to all of the people that I totally spaced sending invitations to. I hope you can forgive me and come and celebrate with us!

Wedding update

Well, things are really starting to come together and the time keeps creeping closer and closer. Wedding gifts are even starting to arrive! Sam and I discovered something we appreciate..., the gifts we've received have come in the mail and it's really nice not to have to worry about how on earth we are going to get our gifts back to Ruby Valley from Dallas. So if any of you out there are planning on getting us gifts, and have to pay for shipping anyway, it is totally okay with us if you want to just send the gifts to Ruby Valley.

Thank you everyone for all of your love and support, we really appreciate it!

Bridal Shower

I have been so blessed to have wonderful people in my life. On May 17th my co-workers Traci and Val hosted a bridal shower for me. It was so amazing!! I am so thankful and touched by the love that everyone has showed to me. Thank you!!

Isn’t it gorgeous?!

Pampered Chef Registry

A few weeks ago I signed up for a Pampered Chef registry at a bridal fair that I went to. I finally got that registry information in my e-mail. They put all the "basics" on there, I have not even looked at it, but I thought I would put it on here. Thanks everyone!
