Activity for Rachael

After a whirlwind 2 weeks of interviewing, I was offered and accepted a new job! I was worried about all the time I need off this year (4 days for my brother's wedding, 8 days for mine), but they said it was absolutely no problem. I'm super excited...

This weekend FH and I decided on Ireland for our honeymoon. We will be going in early December, immediately after our wedding. I did some research, but I was curious if anyone has been to Ireland in the winter? It looks like there is a ton of stuff...

I just got an email from FMIL asking for a list of who I would like to invite to a shower. I had no idea she was thinking of hosting one, so am very surprised and grateful. However, I have a question about who I should invite to my FMIL's shower. My...

And the countdown begins.... We have so much left to do still, but I'm kinda stuck in IDGAF mode. (It's actually so bad that when I found an error on our invitations I didn't even freak out at all. Just said "Ffffff" and reordered.) Hopefully our...

Yay! It's our tasting day today! I'm super excited to try the catering at our venue. Hopefully it's good. Wish me luck. Also, I can't believe we are only 4.5 months out now. How did that happen? I swear we were still 7 months out yesterday! December...

Because...I paid off my car today!! That will be almost 2k extra cash for the wedding. It feels so good to have one less bill each month and to fully own my car! Anyone else had something good happen today? ETA: Forgot a word...

Money/savings, that is. Just made the first credit card payment - 1/3rd of the budget used up and gone. (Putting everything on a cc for the cash back.) Painful and satisfying all at once.

Hello WW ladies! I've been hanging around for the past week or so and thought I would do an intro. My name is Rachael, my fiance is Tom. We have been together for almost 4 years and got engaged in March of this year. I'm so excited that we are...
