FANTABULOUS!!!

That was my word for the day yesterday, but because I am still riding the happy high that I am on, I think I will make it my word of the month. Why a "happy high"?? Well let me tell you.

On Tuesday, Mr. Teddybear and I went to see a local golf course as a place for our wedding ceremony and reception. Now, there are some golf courses that are gorgeous and some that are pretty. The place we went to is pretty, but it wasn't how the place looked, it is the interaction with the people there that matters. So far we had looked at two other golf courses, the one we found on Tuesday, which is Azusa Greens Country Club and the San Dimas Canyon Golf Course. Mr. Teddybear golfs at both of them so he knows the guys there. He has a much better relationship with Azusa Greens than he does with San Dimas. So I took that into consideration. When we got to Azusa Greens, we met with the Banquet Manager, Espi. Right off the bat I felt like she was one of my Aunts. She was very friendly and very accomidating to our budget. She gave us money saving tips, ideas, and suggestions. She said if we booked by the end of July, she would not only give us a 10% discount, but also waive several of the fees (cake cutting, set-up/cleanup, and toasting fee). However, when asked to have till the end of the month of August, she said she could do that. But what the big clincher was when we finished the meeting. Instead of getting up and shaking our hands, thanking us for the appointment, she hugged not only me but Mr. Teddybear too!!! The thing was, it didn't feel awkward. It felt like I was hugging a family member.

So, I was happy and am still riding the happy high from finding a nice place for our ceremony and reception that has really good people running it!!!

I am fantabulous!!! How about you? Feel free to use my word of the month!!
