I know! It's going to be a huge TR! 3 weeks away I will have PLENTY to write about. I might have to take Ryan's laptop and write them up in word so I can cut and paste when I get back!

My cousin (wedding coordinator) thought we were crazy for going on a cruise right before the wedding. But we really wanted some family time. Ryan hasn't had ANY time off in about 2 years, so it will be good! I'm so EXCITED!!!!

OH! Here is a very important tip for ya'll!

If you are sending response cards with your invitations number them!!!! We printed out our guest list, went through and numbered everyone. On the back of the response cards we put a teeny tiny number to correspond. I tell you, it was a life saver!!! I got a couple back with people who didn't put their name on it? Seriously? How hard is that? I'm not kidding you!

I will be getting my camera tonight to take pics of what I have done this week!!

I second this, except I personalized each one with the guest's name, because some of my cousins like to "invite" guests that are not invitated.

That's a good idea also. I'm just glad that drama is done! I have turned in my final numbers, if you didn't send me a yes, you are now a NO!!!!! I'm not adding anyone, it's done...

Man, weddings can get stressful. My to do list is LONG!

Thank you!!!! I feel very blessed to be able to have all of these experiences coming up. I know Hawaii wouldn't of been possible if Ryan's parents didn't book the whole trip for us! I'm getting really excited now!

omg how fun filled! im jealous!!!!

Thanks! I hope my cruise is as great as yours was. I loved your TR!!

Ryan and I met with Rev. Tim Herring this morning. He seems very nice, Ryan liked him, so that is good! He knows what he is doing, which made me feel better about the whole process! Less nervous...

Then this afternoon was my shower!!!! I will post some pics later, but it was fun. My aunt did an amazing job. It was all flower/garden themed. She had the food in flower pots oh and she used the knee boards you use to pull weeds with as trays also! It was so cute! I got most of my stuff off my registry. We didn't need much but have been living with the bare minimum for a year now. It was a great day!!!

I can't believe this time in 2 weeks I'll be a married woman!!!!

Although, it will be sad because my reception will be almost over!

How exciting, I can't wait to hear about all of your adventures. Its hard to believe that your wedding is almost here. I'm totally jealous about having 3 weeks off, believe me it makes for a long TR and we want to hear all about it! I'm especially excited to hear about Hawaii and the wedding too of course.

Any pictures from your shower to share with us?

I will post pics of my shower soon!!!!!! I lost my little thing to put the pictures on my computer. Ryan was pretty upset... Anyway, I have to wait for him to come over so I can use his laptop to do it because I can just put the memory card in to the lap top. I will try to do that before we leave for our cruise!!!

I can't wait to start my TR!!!!! I can't wait for Hawaii either. Your TR got me so excited about it!
