Lists, Lists, Lists
Well so far we are pleased to report that the wedding planning is going along swimmingly. Just checked theknot.com's online checklist and we are all up to speed which is great. All the "big" decisions have been made: the date, location, reception site, caterer, florist and band (check them out www.chicagocatz.com). There is still much to do, but we are trying to remain as low key as possible. We will see how this works out, particularly two weeks before the wedding when Blair is doing eight shows a week at night. Oh my.
Be sure to check out the wedding website as hotel infomation will be updated along with the "Visitors" section.
The weather in Chicago has been fickle, but hopefully spring is here to stay and summer is on it's way. We plan to make trips to Louisville and Baltimore this summer so hopefully we will be able to see all of our fantastic family and friends outside of Chicago. Of course if you wish to visit us in Chicago let us know, Chicago is an amazing city to be in during the summer (and Blair has an extra bedroom and pull out couch!)
Jürgen has about a week and a half left of the Romeo and Juliet tour with Chicago Shakespeare he will then spend about a month performing in a ten-minute new play festival called "Sketchbook" with a company called Collaboraction. In August he begins rehearsals for Amadeus also at Chicago Sheakespeare. Thankfully there will be about a two month break to enjoy the summer.
Blair is not in a show at the moment, but she has been keeping herself busy on the "other side of the table" working as a freelance casting director with some smaller Non-Equity and Equity companies around town. She also fills her days as a temp (which leaves her lots of time to do wedding stuff which is great) and auditioning. She will reprise her role of "Gerda" in Victory Gardens musical production of The Snow Queen which will begin rehearsals on November 1st (her birthday!).
Other than that the life of Blürg is pretty low key. We enjoy cooking and often harass Jürgen's mom for new recipes. We watch a lot of Top Chef and have been seeing a fair amount of theatre lately which is always fun.
Thank you for visiting our site....more to come!
