[Groom Mickey]

How could I have not been nominated for a blog award?????? I mean no nomination for best DIY project or mention of my fine crafting ability ...... just look at my past post about the DIY crafts I did!!!!!

By this time I have 30 Mickey cake heads waiting for choclate and they have warmed up, the next one I dip falls off the stick into the choclate. Now I go to put them in the fridge and what happens the tray they are on is to big! I go to adjust and half the heads come tumbling off into the fridge and rolli across the kitchen floor. It looks like a bad accident in ToonTown. I have heads here and there, some split in half with sticks piercing through. Half of the heads had only one ear , some with none and there are mickey ears everywhere (candy melts). It was total carnage

I have had the card stock, gluegun and glitter out for the past two weeks and still have come up with nothing solid. If I could get the boys to stand still long enough I would have glittered them by now ( I have a major glitter addiction). After I stole my sister cricut from her closet today I spent the rest of the night trying to get a Mickey Icon centered (2hrs). Everything I have done looks so homemade

Tried to craft yesterday and stabbed myself with a butter knife and cut through 1/4 of my nail. Please, dont ask why I was doing a craft with a butter knife... bad decision.


How was I snubbed by the voting members of the board....rofl

I love your welcome bags! They are super cute! And you totally reminded me that I STILL need to finish ours! I've had the bags for ages but still havent got round to printing our logo on them! We're due to pay in Feb too...I'm actually looking forward to paying them!

thanks... I am betting you will get your bags done well before I get ours done.

I think the bags are really cute!!!

Thanks so much.

Those are super cute! I can't wait to see what fabrics yomu are going to pick for them.

I can't wait to see what fabric I pick either. I can't seem to find a navy with pink in it at all!!!! Not that it has to be in the wedding colors but would like it to sorta kinda tie in.

Any idea on whether you will make them all the same design? As in using the same 4 pieces of fabric or do you think you might pick up 8 pieces of fabric to kind of switch them around? LOL, I know I'm making it complicated huh.

Oh they are going to be done somehow. I have no idea. I just like to create projects and not start of finish them LOL

Love love love the bags James!!!!
It's always scary when making payments - not least because of the effect it has on your bank balance!!!
All my deposits are paid now but come March all the balances need paying, and that will be a heck of an outlay. I fear my bank mananger will not be best pleased with me!!!!

My bank manager is not pleased with me already let alone when we pay for the wedding. Still it must feel good to have a large chunk of it paid for. I can't wait until we can just enjoy the day.

So lucky!! I can't wait until I can say, "less than 100 days!"
Your ideas are all wonderful!!! It's going to be amazing!

Thanks. Just wait it goes by so quick soon you will be saying "I have less than 100 days"

Ever since Jeff and I decided to get married at Disney World I have been complaining that Disney did not feature same-sex couples. Well finally they have. Good job Disney!

There is no way Disney,however, will ever feature us though. How can two chunky middle age men possibly compare to two wedding dresses and six kids.

I think if they knew your story, they might do it. You two have gone through a lot to get where you are and are going. Including family drama and crafting attacks.

I think they would feature you. You guys have been such awesome foster parents, you always give us a good laugh. And of course, no one does more glitter projects than you. Who can I complain to and demand they feature you.

Have you not seen Amanda and Miltons PJ(Sccrmnky2005) She is the queen of sparkle and glitter projects. I am just a humble peasant compared to her.

 

[smileycrissy]

Shh.... we gotta tell them no one else makes glitter projects like you so they'll pick you.

I think it might be a bit late for that. It is now 100 days that Jeff and I will be getting married at Disney World!!!!!!

 

[pixiegirl]

How exciting!! 100 days!! WHOOHOOO!!

 

[Groom Mickey]

Been trying to get wedding stuff done... but we have the newborn back and just trying to stay awake. . Will keep you posted about our updates.

 

[smileycrissy]

What happened that the newborn is back? I hope all is well.

 

[tinkerbell 766]

I am with Crissy - hope all is well (and you get some sleep!!!)

Yes the baby is back... and she is starting to sleep longer through the night. However, I still feel like this Jeff and I have increased our intake of coffee lately. Lack of sleep is worth it though.

Here is some wedding info though. Here is my latest revised BEO. I thought maybe some of you might like to look at it. I know there are going to be some cuts (unless we hit the lottery). Here it is for your viewing enjoyment. Or NOT. I can not figure out how to get it to post here. I will get my sister on it and have her post it.

 

[Mindyjoy]

Can you select the text, copy it, and paste it in the post? May be easier than trying to convert it into an image.

 

[Groom Mickey]

Lets see if this works.

 

[smileycrissy]

What areas do you think you will be cutting in?

 

[Groom Mickey]

What areas do you think you will be cutting in?

None if I can help it! I think the cake is going to 2 tier and the dessert party I will probably go to the black lawn chairs they have and also get rid of the centerpieces for the DP also. If you look there is a $400.00 dollar charge for the Illuminations viewing and Diane (wedding planner) said as long as guests have park passes (which they do) I will be only charged for those who do not have park tickets. My guest list is getting smaller and smaller and the BEO is priced for 30 guests which I am pretty certain will not be attending. I am actually afraid I am not going to hit the Wishes minimus of 20... going to have to have some people stop by for brunch and cake just to hit it.

I am sure Crissy and I could be persuaded to volunteer our cake eating services!!!!

I'm thinking of cutting our DP centerpieces too. It doesn't save much ($250?) but every little bit helps right? I just hope it's not super dark! 'Cause we're going to have some older folks there... I emailed our florist (Rose) a couple weeks ago giving her our floral budget max and she's still working on what she can do for us...
