ONE WEEK!!!!

Oh my. It is just happening so fast. I am excited and stressed all at the same time. I din't get anything accomplished yesterday so here's Friday's To-Do list.

  1. Still need to find paper for programs
  2. Call my make-up artist to check times
  3. Unpack all my stuff out of my car
  4. Pack for the weekend trip to Kansas City!!
  5. Cut more squares
  6. Fix dinner
  7. Laundry

I know that most of those are not wedding related but they still have to get done and at this point, if it isn't on a list, it's not getting done!

Have a great weekend!!

Wednesday's To-Do List

  1. Pick us wedding dress from the seamstress (CHECK)
  2. Check on tux rentals (CHECK)
  3. Find and buy paper for programs
  4. Find 2 more black tablecloths
  5. Order Thank You cards (CHECK)
  6. Get short-term health insurance (CHECK)

Hopefully I can find the paper and the tablecloths on my dinner break tonight. Since I have to work late today I doubt that I will get much packing done but it's possible!

9 days!

Can you believe that we are finally in the single digits? The time has flown by! I am trying to finish up last-minute projects and and accomplish all 4627849 things on my to-do list. I am beyond ready for the actual wedding.

I have been given some advice over the past few weeks for the day of the wedding. I'd like to hear more. If you have any advice on how to remain calm, stay in the moment, and enjoy the best day of our lives please post it in the comments section!

Planning ahead

While I'm doing a lot of planning for the big day I want you to do some planning too.

Be thinking in advance about what you want to write for our "guest book". We want more than a signature from our guests. We want wishes or advice, maybe even a short story. You will have an area of 4" square to write in so it can't be too long. If every member of your family wants to write a separate one, that's fine too. We plan to have this in a very visible space so that we can feel your love surrounding us all the time.

If you already know what our plan is, don't spoil it. We want to hear and see peoples reactions for ourselves!!

One month to go!!

I can't believe that we only have a month left to go!! I know that we are both so excited for the next few weeks and we hope that everyone else is too. We have a lot to do in the next 30 days so we won't have much time to worry about anything. This weekend we are going to try to move all of my stuff except clothes into our new place. Next week is vacation Bible school at church and I'm supposed to be helping with that. The next weekend we have a wedding to attend. The week after that I will be in St Louis for 5 days at a conference for my job. Then I have one week left of work and a girls weekend in Kansas City with my family. Then it's Wedding Week!!

I'm also still looking for a job. I had an interview yesterday and it went really well so we are praying that I get an offer soon.

If you have not returned your RSVP please do so as soon as possible. We would like to know how many people are coming so that we don't run out of cake and ice cream!! I would hate for people to not have anything to eat because we didn't hear from them. The RSVPs are pre-stamped so all you have to do is write your name and how many people are coming and put it in the mailbox. If you can't make it please still fill it out and just put a zero in the blank! Thanks!!!!
