Last night Cassie brought over a huge packet of papers for me to sign and she brought over the title packet for Desire'. So I guess this is really happening. I thought maybe the approvals were some kind of pre-approval thing, you know how they send you those notices in the mail for credit cards that say, "You're PRE-APPROVED!" I was thinking it was something like that. And what makes me feel even better, was when Cassie told me that I had not1, not 2, but 3 approvals and they all came back right away! I just find it a little hard to believe that not 2 years ago I had trouble getting a car loan, but now they want to give me $75,000 to buy a house. Is that crazy or what?? Definitely makes you feel like a grown-up in a big hurry! Anyway, Cassie says she can have everything wrapped up by July 28. What a great birthday present for me!
And now for the bad news...I'm not sure how much out-of-pocket expenses we are going to have, but I don't think I'll be able to make it in August. That makes me very very sad. :( September might still be a possibility, but I don't want to say for defnite. And even if it isn't, we'll still have Vegas in December and next year we'll do our BFW. I'm sorry. I feel really bad, but I know you know what it's like when it comes to buying a house. Of course, you are more than welcome to come here if you want to. We do have a guest room and we would be happy to have you. And Josh too if he wanted to come with you. We'd be thrilled to see the both of you. If you can't, we understand. And it might be better if we all save our money for Vegas. This will be the first vacation Doug & I have ever taken together and we want it to be a good one. Doug keeps threatening that we'll get married while we're in Vegas, so be sure to keep an eye on us if we start drinking too much, it might just happen. Maybe I should buy a white dress, just in case!

Yipee!!! *Bouncy Smilie Face* Congrats on getting the loan!
It's really exciting, isn't it? It's happening so fast. Are Desire and JT buying that land then?
I understand about the BFW, though I've got to admit I'm disappointed. I would come visit you, but I'm developing the style guide for my company right now. Between writing, printing the darn thing and training, I'm totally swamped for the next couple of months. I don't think I could take time off. (Though I already have vacation time available to me. I get 20 days vacation a year!)
I guess we'll have to make due with Vegas. We've really got to start planning that, btw. :)
20 days vacation?? That's awesome. I don't many jobs that give you 4 weeks off the first year you work there. Good for you!
We definitely need to start planning Vegas. I have a fun idea...we could have a double wedding ceremony. You & Josh can renew your vows and then Doug & I can get married! Won't that be fun?
A double wedding...
That would be super fun! Especially if they would let us split the costs! If we could then, we could go someplace super fancy like the Bellagio Conservatory or the Venetian.
Plus, think of the savings in catering and cake!
You know I'm all for saving money. :)
Desire & JT have already bought land, I guess I forgot to mention that.
I don't know what your phone situation is, but we have digital phone now (free long distance!), so if we need to start planning Vegas over the phone I'll be more than happy to call you. Let me know.
I wanna plan!
Read between the letters to get my number:

Doug leaves for work about 8:15, so I'll try to give you a call after that.
