Your invites are so pretty!!!
I also love the "No, just call me Grumpy" on them!
Thanks! We thought it was funny.
Just caught up on everything and I love the cindy dress! $60 does seem like to much $$. We have similar menus and mine is $41.50 a person. Check out my PJ so you can see what I am having. Good luck with everything!
I love my dress too!!
I saw your menu and the 1 thing that I noticed that was different, was we have chocolate crepes on ours. This is the 1 thing on the menu that the DF requested, so I can't drop it!!
Thanks so much!
I'm not sure how I missed your PJ until now, since you are getting married on my birthday!!!
I also ordered out STD magnets from Vistaprint, aren't they fabulous? I also like your invites from Michael's. They have some in our color scheme so I am considering doing the same. I can't wait to see what else you have planned!
It will be a great day all around then!! Everyone really did love the magnets. I thought they came out really cute. The invites were very easy to do. The most aggravating thing was getting the spacing set up so everything was centered the right way.
The garter is so cute! Love the bow! And I actually really like the invites--- and if DF weren't so set on making our invitations, we'd probably be getting ours from Michael's too.
I think it's sweet of you to offer to take him down later in the year--- he'd love it! (But I wouldn't want him staying with me on my wedding night either!)
Thanks! I really like the garter. At first I thought maybe it would've looked better with the main color being black, but I like it the way it is. We were going to make our own invites. I posted a prototype pic. Then we decided to revamp that idea and headed off to Michael's. We saw this set in our colors and decided it would be a lot easier and faster to use these... and it was!!
Yeah the lil bro def can't stay with us. And everyone else that's coming and staying are adults... so nobody really wants to let him stay overnight with them. Oh well.
We offered to everyone that we would pay for the ticket at the park if they would just let him sleep in their room. Apparently they are all using this as a getaway from their kids.
That's what they all tell us anyway. We don't have children and don't have plans to have any. The DF had a vasectomy a few years ago when we decided we def didn't want any children. Sorry if that's TMI!
Well.. don't really have any wedding updates. We've heard back from almost everyone on the invites. Everyone seems to be in. We did have to disappoint my little sister and tell her that her daughter wasn't going to be able to come. Me and the DF and originally decided we didn't want any kids there, except for my brother (11) and his sister (14). My niece is 2. I told her at first that she could come; because she told me that if her daughter couldn't come then she couldn't. I want her to be there, so I told her that she could come. The DF wasn't very happy about the whole situation, but he went with it... like he does everything!!
Cut to now.. my older sister is saying it isn't fair that she is going. She also has children that won't be allowed to go because of the guest count. But she doesn't want to take them this time anyway.. but whatever. And the DF has been saying that I need to tell her to find a sitter, because she's probably only driving down for the day with my dad. So we told her she couldn't come. She was a little upset and said to count her out too.
I didn't want her feeling like we were trying to leave her out because she's our step-sister. We told her to find a babysitter. Her new bf and his mom are going to watch her.. if they're still together by then.
She changes bfs a lot!!
On a side note. I had to go to the ER this week. I've been hurting in my right side under my ribs for a while now. The did an ultrasound of the gall bladder and said it looked fine..but they wanted to order another test to check to see if the gall bladder is working. I went for that test yesterday. It sucked!! I have horrible anxiety anyway, and I hate needles. Well between both of those visits, I have 4 blown veins and a very sore spot where they were finally able to get the iv going on both visits. I have these huge puffy dark bruises all over my arms now.
It's awful. Anyway, I got the results back today from the second test. They said that 1 shows signs of gall stones, and I need to follow up with a surgeon.
2 1/2 months before the wedding and I need gall bladder surgery. BLAH! I'm glad the surgery isn't anything major.. normally, if all goes well! We're supposed to be off work the week of the 4th, so I'm going to try to get something scheduled for around then. I don't want to have to miss anymore work. I missed a lot of hours this week already going back and forth to the hospital. As well as the DF because he's my driver!
I don't have a license. Never had 1 before at all. Anyway.. now I have to find a surgeon!! Why can't they just set something up at the hospital? That's where I'll end up anyway when they get ready to do the surgery!!
Who knows. That's all for now. Sorry for the long ramble.
The DF has told everyone we would pay for his park ticket if they would let him stay overnight with them, and drive back home Friday.. Most of the family is going from Wed-Fri. Some are staying until Sat or Sun. Nobody wants a child staying with them though, because they're not bringing their own. I love my lil bro and all... but he can't stay with us on our wedding night!!!
