Thank you! I was quite proud of myself for being that patient!

Hahaha, you know, I didn't even notice the Passporters until you mentioned it! As you can probably understand, that thing has been like my bible for the past couple of months!

Yup, it was the American version...def can't beat Michael Scott. Haven't seen the english version yet, but if it's not funny then I won't waste my time!

I find myself getting annoyed with uploading pics into photobucket, then sizing, and then posting in my pj. I think that's why I wait so long in between updates! But keeping with the tradition of throwing out a ton of updates at you...this is what's new!!!

This will be the clutch I use on the wedding day. I got it from etsy and I think it's just gorgeous!

I had our guestbook made at mixbook and I am thrilled with the results! Even better, I ordered it during a time when they had an amazing sale!
(These are just a few of the pages)

I really wanted to buy myself one of the fancy schmancy hangers from etsy to hang my wedding dress with. However, I couldn't bring myself to spend $25 on a hanger. So I decided to give it a go and I am pretty pleased with the results. I even made one for all of my BMs and the moms...7 hangers total, and all of them cost me about the same as one hanger from etsy!!! DF was even impressed with my DIY skills...

It has occurred to me that I haven't introduced you to the little loves in our lives...this is Daisy, who was hanging out with me in the guest room while I was taking pictures of the hangers...

And this is a picture of both our dogs during halloween...Daisy and Ascher

I am so sad that they won't be able to be with us at the wedding!!

Your little dogs are too cute!!

Love those hangers! You should open up your own Etsy store and I'll buy a hanger from you for cheaper!

Loving that clutch too! Too cute!!

Can't wait to follow the rest of your plans!!

 

[KristiLyn]

You'll have 2 customers right up front...haha!

Everything looks great!!!

You are too sweet! I don't think that I have the time or patience to set up an etsy store! However, if you want to email me, I would be happy to make hangers for you girls. pinkfairy1684@verizon.net

 

[KristiLyn]

Are you serious? That's so sweet!!!!

 

[pinkfairy1684]

Looks like I've been bitten by the craft bug again tonight. Decided to make a couple of banners for the reception and dessert party!

This one will hang from our sweetheart table at the reception:

And this one will be for the dessert

The lighting in our office has made all of these recent pictures yellowish. Just in case you can't tell, the colors are black, white, and hot pink (surprise, surprise)...

 

[pinkfairy1684]

Are you serious? That's so sweet!!!!

I sure am! Email me and let me know what you want it to say.

I actually kinda like making the hangers now. Made one for my grandmother tonight and one for a friend who is having a baby shower in a couple of months. The first one I did came out terrible, and I just about threw it across the room in frustration. I have gotten the hang of it now...hehe

 

[Princess SarahK]

It all looks great, Lacey! Your signs are so cute! So perfect for the dessert party! And your pups are adorable!

 

[lilsqueakrr]

Everything looks fabulous! I LOVE that clutch!

It has occurred to me that I haven't written at all about my bachelorette party and shower! Silly me!

Although we are getting married in October, I decided that I wanted to have my bachelorette party in the summer because I wanted a fun beach day with my girls. I am not one of those girls who enjoys getting all dressed up just to go to a club and have slimy guys try to me up. So instead, a few of us will get up early one Saturday in July, and drive to Misquamicut beach in Westerly, RI (about an hour away from me) and spend the day on the beach! There is a fun little restaurant right on the beach that has a bar and music that would be perfect for some drinks and lunch! I am not sure if it's unusual for the bride-to-be to "plan" her own bachelorette party, but I am kind of, ahem, a control freak and my MOH said it was ok!!!

Now, on to the "shower". I have put "shower" in quotations because I am not having a typical bridal shower. DF and I have been living together in our house for the past couple of years. Since I DO NOT need any more kitchen gadgets or towels, I did not want to have a typical shower. My MOH (who has been my rock through all of this planning) suggested that the entire wedding party throw us a jack-and-jill shower on Saturday, July 30th. We have decided to register for our honeymoon (we will probably use travelersjoy as well as they Disney honeymoon registry because of all the website glitches with Disney). But here comes the best part...we are having this party at a brewery/orchard in my hometown! It is seriously one of my favorite places on earth (after the World, of course! ) and DF is THRILLED that he gets to drink awesome beer with the guys!!!

My FI and I own our own place too, so we didn't need to register for the "kitchen gadgets" either. We used the Disney Honeymoon site and didn't have any issues at all. Most of our honeymoon is paid for

Also, I love the Misquamicut idea. We live about 45 minutes from there and it's definitely one of our favorite summer hangouts!

That's what I am hoping for (that most of our honeymoon will be paid for)! Keep your fingers crossed!

Maybe we will bump into each other on the beach this summer, haha.

 

[pinkfairy1684]

I am so excited because I just hopped onto our honeymoon registry and noticed that people have already started to purchase stuff for us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! $265 worth of Disney fun! Yee haw
