I was able to cross a few more things off my list today. My mom and I drove up to Akron and picked out the chair covers and bows. We went with a simple white cotton chair cover with a sheer deep blue bow tied on the back. I also found the flower girl shoes on sale for $10 at David's Bridal and I happened to get all the sizes I needed!! Mom got her Mother of the Bride dress and she is beautiful in it! ;) (But i guess I am a little biased)
I found a limo bus that will fit the wedding party, a lil more $ than I was "budgeting" for, but we've saved on lots so far so I guess we'll make a decision on that one soon. The limo is the last "big" thing we had to do, now it's down to the list.
I started stressing out today and I had to call my best friend and talk for nearly 2 hours! Todd wasn't so sure about me talking to his sister for that long, but he is going to have to learn to understand! haha
Things are falling into place and I know they will all work out. I am trying to keep in mind that the most important part of July 11, 2009 isn't the "things" rather the fact that I am marrying a wonderful man who I love very much!
My first fitting for my dress is the end of March. I NEED to start working out to get in shape and get toned. During our 2 hour conversation (lol) Meredith told me about a 30 day work out video that makes you lose a dress size (not that thats what I'm striving for) in a month. We are going to be each others motivators and do this work out. (If you'd like a good laugh, I'm sure you'll get one if you ask us how our progress is coming with it lol)
Other that wedding stuff: I am turning in the last of my paper work for alternate assessments for work, so that will take some stress off me. My Praxis 3 assessment (to attain my teaching license for good) is scheduled for next Thursday so that is coming up. Speech season will be over the first week of March. I do love it and it's a good time, but it is "extra" stuff to do on top of my first year teaching and planning a wedding. We have our national qualifying tournament this weekend in Copley and if we have anyone qualify we will be heading to Alabama for a week in June... how exciting?! =)
*PS Bart I AM going to try to post more than once a month!! lol
