Time is closing in really quickly. Wow!
I tried on my dress again last night, Two more inches and it will fit perfectly. I am going to work extra hard this week. If I hadn't been slacking the last few weeks it would probably already fit. I need to put the sash on it this week because Friday I am going to get Bridals done. I am excited. Hopefully the weather will be good and I can do them outside.
I need to finish the zippers on the bridesmaid dresses and hem them, and I need to finish up my outfit for the after party. I also need to finish tying up the ribbon on the favors too. This weekend I am going to get the food and start working on that. Once I get a better idea of how many people are going to be there I can figure out seating and how many table clothes I need. Things for wedding are going well.
I do need to complete a lot of school this week and next so I don't have any to do for the week of the wedding and the week after. I am going to crack down a lot this weekend when Dave has the boys.
In addition to watching my nephew George, I am also now watching his new puppy Buster. This puppy is a golden lab and pointer mix. Cute dog. Very hyperactive though. He likes to follow me around everywhere. It is pretty cute. It also depresses me a little because I miss my Maya. Such is life though. We ended up getting some birds instead of a new dog, but it turns out I am allergic to them. That sucked.
Oh well, until next time.

24 Days
Wow it is getting close. Just a few more things that I need to do. I need to finish the favors by putting bows of ribbon on them. I need to cut out the thank you poems and roll those up. I need to purchase a garter belt. I need to finish the bridesmaid dresses and attach my sash onto my dress. I need to find ties for Charles and the boys or make them. I should organize all of the wedding things as well. I need to get ribbon for the center pieces and tule to put on the tables. Then comes the food which will be started the beginning of the month, and stored in the freezer for a while.
Until next time!
Until next time!

31 Days!!!
Wow... getting closer. I am sooo excited. So... update!
I ordered almost everything else needed last Friday. I received some of the items yesterday. (That was quick.) I purchased the center piece items on Friday as well. On Sunday, Cassie, Cheri and I put together the favors, just need to tie a ribbon on them now. Grandma Neu helped too. Saturday we went to the tuxedo place, (Boy, does Charles look good in a suit, whooo.) They don't have the green color I need so I am going to make the vest for the second groomsmen. The tuxedo guy is going to loan me a vest so I can make one very similar. Nice guy. I got the table runners finished yesterday, just need to wash them and iron them. Bryce is coming over tomorrow to make eclairs, as a trial run, just to see if I am going to be able to make them myself. I bought the suits for my boys and the shirts, need to make up the ties, and still get them shoes. We haven't bought them dress shoes yet as we didn't feel the need. The bridal shower invites are out, I have been told. I am starting to get response cards back, so I am starting the RSVP list of who is going to be in attendence. Now is just a matter of finishing last minute things, and getting ahead in schoolwork, so I don't have to work on school during the honeymoon. Charles is looking into going on a cruise (Yooo Hooo) so I want to be able to just relax and enjoy myself.
Until next time.

37 Days left!!!!
Wow, time is flying by. Only 37 days left until the wedding. Invitations will be mailed today or tomorrow. The remainder of things should be purchased by the 10th of February. I am now working on the table runners. Will be pretty simple to complete. Saturday we are going to the tuxedo rental company to see if they have vests in our colors. Exciting, exciting.
On the down side, I feel very overwhelmed and don't want to do much. I hate sleeping alone in a bed, but we are trying to do as our officiant asks. It's tough, but I am sure that he is right that it will be worth it in the end.
Until next time.

Some days I'd rather be at work
I love my kids, but some days I just want to strangle them. Whenever they come back from their Dad's they are rambunctious, cranky, whiny, argumentative little buggers. I hate it. It really frustrates me to no end. I don't know why they do it, but every time. After having them back for two days, I feel like I need to hide. I hate that feeling. It makes me want to cry and throw my hands up and quit. Maybe I shouldn't have any more kids if the two I already have make me feel this way.
On a happier note, the wedding invites are all sealed, and stamped. Now I can just drop them off in the mail!!!!! The vests for the boys are done, my going away dress is almost done, just need to hem it, the sash for my dress is done and I have the fabric to do all the table runners for the reception. Taxes have been filed, and once that money comes back, I can submit the orders for the rest of my stuff.
Until next time!
