I'm getting married!

[Puddles]

Thanks, Werd. You know us pretty well and your words mean a lot to me.

How about helping me write a wedding toast for him? LOL

I was soaking in the bubble bath a couple of nights ago and I wrote my vows to him. It was written on this tiny little Boyd's bear notepad that has a sweet quote about friendship on it. The words came easy even though I thought it would be hard. I'm going to frame it up for him to give to him as a wedding present. I drew a little heart with an arrow on one side and the date on the other. OK...yes, I'm acting like I'm 18!

The guest list keeps growing. As word got around in the family, now his aunt and uncle (who are also our daughter's godparents) want to fly in from AZ. When I talked to the uncle on the phone last night I said this was just an excuse to get the family together. He mentioned how much better this occasion is compared to the last couple earlier in the year, which were funerals. I hadn't even thought about it, but it would be nice if the family could all get together more often for good times as opposed to bad. It's much better to cellebrate life!!!

That made my night. What an awesome thing for the two of you to do. It's so inspiring and heart-warming to read about couples who just get better over time. Good luck with the wedding. I can relate to the adventure of last minute planning. My wedding is in less than 6 weeks and I have a ton to do!

awwww, I'm so happy for you!...it's nice to have someone love you that much!

 

[Puddles]

Mmmmm...I ordered the CAKE! I tasted a few samples too. LOL I got the dress altered and was gonna pick it up today but was too busy with my daughter who was off from school because of the hurricane. Maybe I'll pick it up tomorrow. I ordered the chairs and an extra table. I'm enjoying having the reception here at home. Got some pretty decorations, everything will be in white and blue. Tonight I bought wine for the tables...of course I had to open one of them with dinner.

Hubby's been working hard and fell asleep early tonight. I just layed there holding his hand watching him while he slept for a while. I love times like that.

OMG!

That is the sweetest thing I've ever read.
Awwwww.

SWEET!

Have fun Puddles. You are very lucky.

Puddles do you have everything ready now for your big day?? There's no way I'd be able to plan something like that in such short period of time....

Hope your getting more and more excited!!!!

Of course I don't have everything done, but it's coming along just fine! I have an appointment with the hair dresser for color and cut and a consultation for "wedding hair" on Tues. I have no idea what to do with my hair! The reception will be here at home so I ordered tables and chairs (white lattice back chairs with a cushioned seat, I'll add a toile bow on them to spruce them up a bit) and got lots of stuff to decorate with (my dress is blue so the colors will be blue and white, white table cloths, blue plates, blue ribbon, toile in blue and white for tables, windows and behind the groom and bride over my dining room mirror, flowers, candles, etc). We're keeping it pretty simple, just wanting to share the day with our family and a few close friends.

I talked to the photographer yesterday and I like the girl. I think she'll do a nice job. That was supposed to be one of 2 things hubby had to do (hire a photographer and get with the caterer) but he's been busy so I took over. Not much time left, 2 weeks!

I added a couple of pics of my dress into my gallery if you want to see. I'm so happy! I'm going to wear the dress at my friend's wedding 3 weeks later when I'm her brides maid...the color works perfectly with her beach theme wedding.
