at laura fante's wedding

i didn't want to carry my purse into the reception, so we snapped this shot in the parking lot! i promise we were at a real wedding, even though there is no proof we were there!

our curves club (before)

we closed on the club june 29, and have learned more about actually running a business in the last week than during a semester of grad school. (they never mentioned what to do with 5 filing cabinets full of member files that are inactive? canceled? didn't fit anywhere else? we have no idea...!)

so here are some before pictures. we've been going in everyday for the past 7 days, so our first week as business owners has been, well, long. but terribly exciting. and such a good fit for us. matt works in the back office where he tries to keep a low profile. however, one member (named 'cookie' by the way!) always yells at him to come out and say hi to her. it's their little ritual already, and it's only been a week!
