    (for my girlfriend who is getting Married in september and we are in each others weddings: Worked on her Bachelorette party decor (custom stamped napkins and rhinestone sash and designed her party invites).

    NWR: CLEANING, trying to stay on top of housework so I don't have to be a crazy person to have a house full of ladies getting ready at my house in 4 weeks.
    Fiance' finally hung some artwork and frames we got at our shower. Friday night, Drank a bottle of moscato by myself to sleep like a baby after an insane work week..... ate carrot sticks and yogurt for the rest of the weekend to offset the calories :)
    Anniversary
  • WR: Met with our Day of Coordinator for the last time before rehearsal on Saturday. Went over lots of logistics and timing. Today, we went and applied for our Marriage License, have to go pick it up sometime later in the week. We also went for our final meeting at the venue, and I had my 2nd fitting for my dress where they did the bustle. I get to go pick it up Aug 3rd!!! :D Woo hoo! Finished the last centerpiece (they were definitely a labor of love!) And started coming up with kids table ideas.

    ...ohhh and OF COURSE tracking down people to get my missing RSVPs!

    NWR: My niece and nephew came down on Friday and are staying for the wedding so I hung out with them a lot because I hadn't seen them since Thanksgiving. They are my flower girl and ring bearer.

    NWR:  Went on a 4 mile hike Sunday morning then to a concert in the afternoon.   Spent a lot of time relaxing as FI is sick.

  • WR: Had my hair trial. My stylist did a fantastic job on the back but I was really put off with how she did the front. She must have read it in my face because she started saying that it will look different the day of because she will be using velcro curls to give it a better shape and blah blah blah. I felt terrible but my first thought was, didn't I schedule this trial for a reason? You couldn't have them ready today?! Then Sunday had a schedule review with FMIL and FSIL. I have been feeling overwhelmed and they were able to bring me back to earth.

    NWR: Cleaned the house, ran some errands that I have been putting off. Grocery shopping. Not excited stuff. :)

  • WR: Bridal shower! Our family and friends were so generous and Ii had a great time. It was everything I could have hoped for in a shower! That evening, FI and I were determined to get our kitchen back, so we put everything away that night. It was a little crazy, especially since my FILs got us all our dishes!!!

    NWR: Went to go see the new Batman movie.  FILs were in town, so we showed them around all weekend. It was fun, but tiring :)
