Talk Big Thursdays

What do you have to AW this week?

I'm AWing the fact that (for me) it feels like the week has flown by. Very ready for the weekend, regardless.

I'm not sure if you want good Awws or bad AWs... So I'll give you both

I am AWing the fact that every time I think I have things under control new things pop up. Things that I never thought of before. I am also AWing the fact that some people can't seem to understand that this is me and my FI's wedding, we are making the choices and decisions and not them... Additionally I am AWing the fact that my MOH seems to think my wedding and wedding problems will be a repeat of hers, wish she would understand this is my wedding and my family and it will not turn out the way hers did.. Ah well..

On to happier Awws I am Awwwing that one of my friends has gone way beyond to help me look for dresses, she's being so helpfull, kind and fun It's great to see how some people just go out of their way to help you even when you don't ask for it.

I am AWing my FI.  At the beginning of the week, he had NO idea how to fix a kitchen sink; today he does .  Nevermind that I rode his a__ like Zorro to get it done :):)

I am going to AW the fact that I have made dinner for FI and I every single night for the past two weeks. Now I always make dinner so this is no big deal, what the big deal is, is that I managed to do this on only ONE grocery shopping trip...which NEVER happens!

I also want to AW the fact that I have been to the gym regularly for the past two weeks as well. And you remember from my previous posts, this was a major goal for me.

Annnddd...while im on a roll (ha ha) I think my interview I had Tues went pretty well and I should hear something early next week. FINGERS CROSSED

My AW is my awesome FILS.  They couldn't be any better.  Love them!

My AW moment this week was when I went shopping with my mom for my wedding Jewellery. She spent quite a bit of money on it and I know she doesnt have alot of money.

She's also been sending me some money when she gets paid every two weeks to put towards the wedding.

I know she doesnt have alot of money and so it means alot and makes me go AWWWW.

My AW would be getting a good chunk of wedding stuff done this week! I waited for a deal and getting all 85 of our votives for the table on sale! $120.00 for 85 isn't so bad!  They came out to be $1.40ish each which is unheard of in the mercury votive world...AND they are from zgallerie so I can keep some after for decor purposes and sell the others!




I also want to AW myself because I have not called/emailed my photographer for being late on our epics (...yet).  I know he is busy and don't want to be thaaaaaaat bride.  Although I will def call if I don't have them this weekend which will mark 4 weeks intead of 3!

love them ellie!

Aw<a href="http://www." rel="nofollow">www.</a> That reminds me of an awww moment in my life.  Before my FI moved in he took some home improvement courses at the local community college so that he could be more useful around the house.  Without asking him.  He's such a keeper! 

Good for you for getting your sink fixed.  That was my request around this time last year.  I was going CRAZY.  And that's what I got for Christmas from the FI last year... a new sink and faucet.  So romantic.  ;-)

I'm sending good vibes and good luck your way!!

My awwww moment is that the FI is showing signs of improvement with his Bell's Palsy.  It's been a week and two days.  Yesterday he was able to smile a itty bitty tiny bit on his bad side.  We both teared up in utter joy. 

Still waiting until the end of the month to decide whether to rush and get married or not.  We haven't told our families yet what we are contemplating and will probably bring it up over Thanksgiving.

I got my shoes this week.  And our save the dates.  And I organized a bunch of info.  So I'm AWing that because I wasn't planning on doing anything wedding related this week!  Whoot whoot!

It is so good to hear that he is improving- even if it is only a little. I am praying for you and FI everyday!

I now have something to AW about!  FI got a job offer today!  Actually, he got TWO!  So excited for him seeing as one was for his dream job.  Right now we're in a LDR because of his current job and the new job he accepted is only an hour and fifteen minutes from where I work so we can find a decent half-way point and we're all set!

The downside is that it doesn't start for six months, so we still have to tough it out but now we can start to get an idea about where we are going to be living.  Score!!!  Now we just have to be all hush hush about it for a few months...

"In sickness and in health, for richer or poorer..."

I think it is amazing that so many of the ladies on this board are experiencing the meaning of these words firsthand, and are doing so with beauty, courage, and strength. AWs for all of you, because you have already proven that you are going to be amazing wives.
