SCHOOL, SCHOOL, SCHOOL!!! and NEWS NEWS NEWS

Ugh, I feel like the semester will never end! I am so tired and so ready for my summer to come. Luckily i have a million things to keep my mind occupied to make the semester end quickly, NOT! everything on my mind makes it go slower! All i can think about is our wedding. last time it wasn't this hard. I constantly have other things on my mind making school impossible to concentrate on and on top of it all i am going to be competing with horses all summer. i think the semester should end this second! Oh man it didn't happen i guess i have to wait until the end of April.

Well for the new information i have regarding me and Aaron, we have been apartment hunting for so long and it has been driving me crazy! My mom told me that if i don't take fancy then she will give her away to a new family and i wasn't going to stand for that and Aaron felt bad for me so he said that Fancy will live with us! Awesome! So we have been trying to find a pet friendly complex and that is not easy my friends not easy at all. There is no where in Provo that allows dogs and byu approved housing is so expensive to live in so that isn't an option. So we ditched Provo and went to look in Orem near UVU. We looked at so many apartments but one was a run down tiny apartment for 850 a month for 1 bed 1 bath! how ridiculous! so we kept looking but we had almost given up on the idea to find housing that would allow a dog it seemed impossible and we thought if we ever found a place then there was no way we would ever be able to afford it so instead we decided to drive around Oren to try and find a complex that we were unable to find on line. And guess what we drove past a beautiful complex where real families live, and very few students! We went to talk to the manager and she gave us a list of prices and you will never guess what they allowed, ok well maybe you can guess they allow pets under 30lbs luckily Fancy only ways 2lbs! And they had a two bed one bath for 740 a month! we took a tour of the apartment and I fell in love! it was beautiful and it was huge! there was a dining area and a living room and the main bedroom can fit my queen size bed plus all my bedroom furniture! the living room can fit real living room furniture and it has room for more than one couch. This apartment is a wonderland! it is so beautiful and it has a balcony right next to the Dining room! Its a dream come true. the kitchen had counters for me to work on and there was a dishwasher! I think i am in love.
So i called a few days later to see if anything had opened since the last time we came in a a top floor apartment with VAULTED ceilings had just opened and would be available for move in 30 days after we sign the lease! so we went to get all the paper work needed to apply for the apartment and scrapped up enough money for the deposit and the application fees. Which unfortunately made a large dent in both of our checking accounts but we both decided it was well worth it! We have recently been informed that we are basically approved and all we need to bring in are pay stubs for proof of income! I am so excited to move in and decorate however i want! I hope they will let me paint! I am hoping we will have the lease signed by the end of the week. Keep you fingers crossed for us!

The cat is out of the bag!

I couldn't hold in the surprise any longer! Aaron knows what we are doing for our reception so why not tell everyone else. Now everyone needs to promise to keep an open mind because this is going to be a very different wedding especially for the LDS culture. The reception will be at the Peirpont Place in salt lake city. The venue is a blank slate and you all know how the Conley girls love to be creative and unique so a blank slate is exactly what we need. My brilliant sister Megan get the credit for the brilliant idea! We are having a Moroccan wedding!!! It is going to be so colorful and the food is amazing. Cedars of Lebanon will be doing are catering and we will be getting married in the salt lake temple.
Our reception is going to be so amazing! We will have dinner and dancing and amazing music! the best way to describe the idea meg and I had behind the wedding is to just watch either the remake of a little princess or Casablanca! Unfortunately we wont have Sam playing for us like rick did but that is the kind of Music we will have so come prepared to dance and have amazing Delicious food.
I can't wait to see everyones faces when they walk in the room! Be prepared for a treat while we all eat dinner!!! Can't wait to see you there so we can have a party!
