The Temple is scheduled for March 12, 2011. Logan UT. YAY!
Its such a relief to have that part finalized.
The weekend before I have the Anchorage Temple Scheduled for my endowments.
Phew!
And then also today:
My dear wonderful sweet Aunt Renee (whom I have always loved and adored and admired) took on task of planning the reception and flowers, and talking to Grama about where we can get us some nice free/lowcost cake! YAY! (Apparently when eener got married grama traded quilting skills for cake making/decorating skills with a lady in Tremonton-woohoo, love that idea!!)
Also, Travis and I got some of the engagement photos done (YAY! Bro LeFleur in N. Pole ward) and Robin agreed to take me to Anchorage in a couple weeks for Wedding Dress Shopping.
My Friend Sam a mam said she'll do the Bachelorette party and Robin the bridal shower. (Idk when those will happen, but probably coming up quick!)
And Uncle Dave will do the photo video for the reception-we just need to send him pictures.
:D YAY!
The best part of all this is that means I can focus my energy on the big scary tasks like:
Me and Travis have yet to find housing (if you know of anyone with inexpensive mother in law type apartments or cabins (we have a very low budget, we are even looking at the low income housing-yikes!) please let me know!
And.....Health Insurance. For me, its kinda a big deal. Any options for newly weds other than UAF? Apparently its all pretty much out of pocket. :( sad face
And preparing for the temple
And preparing for my home
And not to mention school work and dance job (making money that will contribute to the expenses that are about to inflate!)
And all the other things that are big deals.

Housing:
Ask other young/recently marrieds. They're going to know your options better than you are.
Health Insurance:
UAF is basically it. Anything else is probably going to be more expensive out of pocket. The good news is that if you get pregnant in school, you can always get on medicaid (although you HAVE to be pregnant at this point to be on it... does that make sense?).
Haha, MAnda, me and Mom and Rulon were talking about that tonight while we were cleaning for you and Jordan and Baby Clara! Basically I was thinking-I have to have a honeymoon baby. But.....I'm not ready for that. Though the insurance coverage is a compelling reason. lol. You were probably fine to do the student insurance thing for a little bit though, you don't have weekly dr visits or daily perscriptions. :P Any UAF insurance really is only there for Crisis' so I'm still going to be paying practically out of pocket.
That stinks about the health insurance. I haven't been on any since we got married and finally got on medicaid (took me long enough, right? haha) The nice thing is we qualify for not having to pay a thing - no deductibles or copays, but the sucky thing is it only covers pregnancy costs and only up to 60 days past due date. So, "if you slip and break your ankle, it doesn't cover that" is what the guy said haha lovely. I don't really know the specifications on medicaid besides qualifying if you're pregnant, but that's what we have. Go honeymoon babies! That's what we wanted ;) Our wish was a bit delayed, but who cares!
ps: I worked at the UAF health center.. I'm sure you can go in for a visit and they can order you a prescription or fill something there. All the providers are really good. I love them.
FUN!!!!!!
