Foot-blah

Had enough football already? Me too. It's only 3:30, the Superbowl is still hours away, and I'm already growing weary of the big announcer voices, roaring crowds and 1980s pigskin flashbacks.

So for me, something a little more girly today, thank you very much.

A Wedding.

TBF and I have finished up our counseling, and we're happy and eager to be back on the wedding wagon. We thought we'd be living in Austin by now, but even though we finally finished up school, our jobs have kept us in Lubbock a little longer than planned. It is almost as hard to plan a long distance wedding in Austin as in any other town, and I don't have any interest in getting married in Lubbock, so we've been brainstorming other possible wedding destinations.

Currently under consideration is Ruidoso, New Mexico. We go there at least twice a year to get away, and have always enjoyed the town. There are mountains, but it isn't terribly cold or too far away from most of our friends (unlike Colorado). It is inexpensive (unlike Austin). Ruidoso has plenty of affordable lodging and restaurants, but still has a small town homey feel (unlike Vegas). Plus it's a town already familiar to us, not someplace we'd have to struggle with as far as finding the florist and the bakery.

So, a Ruidoso wedding, perhaps??
