Today was a good day

We're usually pretty lazy on our days off, but decided to take a drive out to visit Calvin's parents today. It's only about 45 minutes away from here, so it's a good day trip. We had a good visit, but it did spawn some wedding talk, which I hate. Neither of us have been on a vacation before, so we thought it would be fun to get married in Jamaica, since we both really want to go there..

Turns out that his parents are adamant on us getting married here, but that doesn't really turn my crank. I don't have a lot of family, but Calvin -- mainly his Mom -- has come up with a guest list for his side of the wedding, which totals about 100 people. Great. So I'm going to know about five people, hah. On a positive note, his parents have offered to pay for a caterer, which would be a huge help; after all, it is the biggest expense.

There's still quite a few things to iron out, like where the wedding will be held...Red Deer (my hometown), or Stettler (his hometown). And then comes my biggest beef: do we really need to invite 150 people? I personally think that we should choose the people that are important to us, not our parents. If I haven't seen them in 5 years, or I need to be introduced to them, they don't need to be at my wedding....

That's all I have to say for now, off to watch Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason.
