2nd Shower!!

So last weekend my fiance told me that we had a cousin day at his families house. It's something that we have done before where all the cousin get together and play games and its a lot of fun. Well, we got there and we walked in and I saw my mom, my sister and my aunt. It was a shower for me with my fiance's side of the family. They did a cute pink and brown theme and had baby pictures of both of us and they did a really nice job. My mom got me my pant set and I was so excited because that was the only thing that I really wanted that I didn't get at my first shower. We got lots of money too and thats exciting because now I can finish my dishes!

We played a bridal version of picturary and it was lots of fun and we laughed and had so much fun

50 days til the wedding....

My First Dress Fitting

It's been a while and I have been a busy girl! I went for my first dress fitting and I had begun to have a few second thoughts about my dress but then when I went and tried it on in the bridal store, I knew it was the right dress! I love it.

I also went to best buy with my friend Anne, and we talked with her boyfriend about buying a TV for my fiance for his wedding present. I have always been over the top in my presents and I am not going to stop now! I think choosing between Plasma and LCD was a really hard choice. I choose one but the tv's are going to go on sale next week so I decided to wait another week. My fiance's best friend just bought a new one so I texted him to get his opinion but he really wasn't that much help! So I decided on LCD- Samsung 52"!

...Go big or go home:)

I hope I made a good choice

Wow Shocked

So when I think of my future step mother in law, I think of a witch. Things always have to go her way or she makes such a stink. Well anyways, about a year ago her and my future father in law retired to Portugal. She got mad at my fiance, pretty much for nothing, and has been angry ever since. Well, we have made multiple attempts to make things better, sending cards and gifts beyond anything that we needed to do. To make a long store short, my fiance talked to his dad tonight and she is NOT coming to our wedding! Part of me is happy because my fiances dad will be more himself which, I have never seen in our whole relationship. On the flip side there is something about it that makes me feel so disrespected and so bad for my fiance,although he is very happy that she is not coming..... I am just shocked!



On a happy note, I have been worried about the gifts for the little ones involved in the wedding and my fiance thought of a wonderful idea. When I was a little girl, I loved American girl dolls and so I decided to get my flower girl a bitty baby. She loves dolls so I think she is going LOVE it! Yay for checks:)

My Bridal Shower!

So I originally didn't get a chance to blog about my wonderful bridal shower that was last weekend because I came home and felt utterly exausted and then woke up monday morning with a blazing fever and sore throat and so many aches and pains that I didn't know what to do with myself.

The theme was a princess and tea party and it was a lot of fun and it was above and beyond what I had imagined! Here is a picture of me cutting my cake, which was so good!

And I got so many nice gifts and people went above and beyond...It was so much fun and I am so greatful!

DIY crazy!

So this week since I am on vacation from school I have been doing many wedding related projects and have actually gotten to more of them then I thought I would. I made one of my two memory candles. I am rather happy with how it turned out. I love how incorporates my colors!! :)

I also got in my invitation which even though they were a hassle to get I really like. My fiance designed the monogram that is on the front of them and I really think they do a good job of setting the tone that the wedding is a very romantic and elegant affair! :)

Invite Rant

So I am about to pull my hair out with the invitations that I ordered. So my fiance and I went in to order the invites on December 20th of last year. Everything went fairly smoothlywhile we were there and we decided to get the proof of the invitation just to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. So the proof was supposed to take about a week to come to us but it took like 3 instead. To boot, the proof was only the wording when it was supposed to have all the fonts and what not. I complain and it took them another two weeks to get us the new proof. The new proof then did not have the actual invite page. I was annoyed because that is the first thing people are going to see when they open the invitation...

So it took one more week for them to get us the invite page. Once I okay everything I had made one change to the meal choice and the lady assured me that it would be taken care of. They told me the invites would be in the next week but they took two weeks to come in. Okay I was a little annoyed after all this but decided to let it all go. My mom went yesterday to pick up the invites and they did give us a 30 dollar check for the proof so that was nice but guess what?

The change they were supposed to make with the meals, its not changed. I am so mad! Now I have to argue with them again. I am so not a fighter and just wish this would work its self out. UGH.......

Parent Gifts

My finace and I have been trying to check some things off our list that we have left to do and some of them have been easier than others. I seem to be stressing more as things get closer and its crazy how time flies! So for my parents, who have done so much for us reguarding the wedding amongst other thing, we decided a two night stay at a bed and breakfast on the Cape would be perfect. They never get a chance to do anything thing for themselves so I think they would love the time away. Now that I have figured it out, its just getting my fiance to find a good deal and get it done!

We also took half of the men of the bridal party to the Tux shop to get fitted, so thats a half check! This week we will reach the 100 day mark! It's getting close!
