More Mission colors:
This week's wedding update: locked and loaded for October 13th at Barndiva. We were up there today starting on the arrangements, and even put down a deposit... yikes. I also took a bunch of photos while we were there.
Things are getting serious now. Exactly 200 days to go, and counting.

Bard sent a link to a blog posting he thought would be helpful; I liked the first item in particular.
