Well I FINALLY have a few moments to sit down and catch my breath!! I'm attempting with adding a picture today, and so you get a bad picture of a picture. This is the latest picture of me and John. His parents had a coupon for a free 10x13 from the Apex EMS, and they gave it to us, so this is what we got. I LOVE the frame though, it looks perfect in our new little office. Sorry its such a bad picture, but it was the only thing around worth taking a picture up and I was too lazy to get up and go find something more interesting. I still don't think it looks like me inthe picture, I think I'm still getting used to the contact look. Anyway, if I'm feeling adventurous I'll add some more pictures later.

This has been one crazy crazy week! I can NOT WAIT for all this wedding planning stuff to be over with. I know I know, I should enjoy the process, blah blah blah. I am just so ready to get on with the rest of our lives. I want to be able to come home in the evening and we can spend some time enjoying each other, without thinking about all the billion things that I still have left to do. I just need to get organized again. Make a new list of all the little projects to be done, and then plan them out. That way I won't feel so overwhelmed. Thats the plan for tonight....make a new timeline for the next 12 weeks. Thats right...only 12 more weeks until I'm a married woman! How crazy is that!

On an exciting note...my first shower is Friday night. This is what I lovingly refer to as the "older" shower. While there are still a good number of people close to my age that will be there, there will also be a lot of older ladies. All of John's Great Aunts were invited, if that gives you any idea by what I mean when I say older lady. ;) None the less....things are starting to be bought off our registry. Yes I know I'm a cheater....but its just so dern exciting! The crystal wine glasses we picked out and 2 place settings of our china have been bought. So, we might not be able to have a dinner party for 12, but at least the 2 of us can sit down to a very nice fancy dinner!

The next shower will be on October 2nd. I got my invitation in the mail to this yesterday, and mine has been carefully doctored to say SURPRISE theme instead of giving me the details of the shower. Now I love surprises, but the suspense is going to drive me batty!! Especially, when my mother opens the invitation WHILE ON THE PHONE WITH ME and says "ohhh how nice. I've never heard of something like this before but you're going to love it!!!" I am SOOO excited about this shower.

The lingerie shower is in November...and I'll admit I'm a little frightened about this one, but excited all at the same time. Lets just say that my sister has a cake pan that if any man saw us cut a cake that looks like this he would probably be in physical pain. ;) My daddy was SHOCKED to hear that my sister owned a cake pan like this, and refused to let her bake his birthday cake this year. None the less I am VERY excited about this shower too. Who wouldn't want to have all kinds of fun lingerie to take on their honeymoon. (Now if only I could stick to this diet and not look like a beached whale in the lingerie).

Ok, well its been nice to sit here and dream about the showers. They give me something to look forward to in the midst of all this crazy planning. Pray for me as I am trying to keep sane so that I don't drive John insane!! For now, I must go and begin my work on the wedding timeline. The invitations go out in just a couple of weeks...so keep an eye out for that! :)

Have a fabulous day!!
