MAJOR catch up...

So I have been such a bad blogger. I really need to update everyone on our wedding progress. It is amazing how much time I have on my hands on that my Nation Board Exam is done! :)

First I just have to say it is so nice to feel not so over whelmed, so I can enjoy my wonderful fiance. I also am enjoying that I am not taking my zolof (for anxiety) and I have been off of it since my National Boards, and I feel very little anxiety. Which is GREAT!

Last weekend I went up to my mom's house to do a Wedding Planning Weekend. It was very successful! We were able to find all of the black dress shirts that we needed for the groomsmen on sale! So we bought them for $17.99! score!

Then we went to Anchor Paper to buy all the paper for our invites which may I tell you we found an awesome deal again, we got all of the paper (white cover card stock) and then Velium Paper and envelopes (pink) for $65.00, and that is to make 145 invites. I thought we did pretty good.

We also met with my cousin, who works at a flower shop and is helping me with our bouquets. And again that was a success! We actually ended going into the floral shop and I found a bouquet of Gerbers and I was like wow these are really pretty I picked them up and realized they were fake. So we decided it would be the best if we did fake Gerbs since it will probably be hot as hell on our big day. So Amber, my cousin, is looking more information about the fake flowers. We are also going to try to do fake mini gerbs for the boys, if we can find ones that look real. Also we are doing fake tulips and the other memory vase of flowers.

Now on to the bad news... I tried my dress on and needless to say it was a little tight. I have 2 inches to work with on the panel so it isnt to bad, but I am trying to loose a little weight and tone up my upper body. So I am in the progress of that.

Then yesterday we went and registered for our wedding, and let my tell you it was exhausting! It took us 9 hours to do 3 stores. Wow, we were sooo tierd!

We also found fushia pink rain boots for me for our wedding, you know in case it rains.. haha

We bought all of the belts needed for the groomsmen, and black socks.

I have ordered the black dress pants for the groomsmen and they should be arriving today sometime. They better be black this time! @@

and tonight I am heading up to my moms again, and we printing off invites and starting to put them together! yay! we are aiming to get them out by May 11th.
