A few checks off my list

"After my fight" is a phrase I hear ALL the time, especially when it comes to anything wedding related.  Every time I bring up anything about the wedding, whether its the guest list, the catering or tuxedos, Luis' response is always the same... "after my fight".  Usually I wait just a few weeks too long and then sure enough, Luis is already training for another fight so again I hear "after my fight".

UGH!  

So this time, I smartened up and asked told Luis that today we were going to get a few things crossed off our wedding list, before he could go back to the gym, back to training or decide to fight again.  And to my shock he said yes without even so much as a sigh or a rolling of the eyes! SCORE!  So I thought it would be a good time to decide on the tuxedos and go pick out wedding bands.

Now Luis is definitely the "just tell me when to be there" kind of groom and while I am a little bit of a control freak, I really want Luis to at least have a say in what he was going to wear on our wedding day.  But of course, I did this in the classic women way, but making him think he was picking out what he liked which actually ended up being exactly what I wanted.  Yup.  I'll admit it, I'm that kinda girl, but hey, he was happy and I was happy so no harm done right? And these boys are gonna look super hot in their tuxes!  You can all thank me in about 11 months.

Finally, we headed to the mall to pick out wedding bands.  Now this was definitely something that was 100% up to Luis because he will be wearing this band for-ev-er and I want him to love it.  This time, without any womanly coercion, he picked out a super awesome wedding band.  Grey, and thick and manly... perfect!

Luis and I then picked out a beautiful diamond wedding band to go with my engagement ring.

So we've made some good progress on our my to-do list. Still much more to do, but I think I can handle the rest of it on my own =)
