Texas-Dallas and Ft. Worth

AW Thursday

My mom is starting to squeeze the doctor's hands, has been almost all the way taken off the ventilator and isn't having seizures any more.

One.  More.  Day. 

I leave for Europe in six days.  I am so not ready.

    My AW: I sent the guest list and addresses to the woman doing our invitations today so she can print the envelopes. This means that any additional people we add will be hand written, which gives us more incentive not to mess with the list any more :)

    Amber those are so lovely!  My favorite is the one of you looking down with the water thingy behind you.  And the closeup of you--95.  You look so happy in every single one!


    Julie, I am so happy to hear good news about your mother.

    Amber - your bridals are great! Did you have them done at the Arboretum?

    I love that my friends are having destination weddings! We are in the process of booking our Hawaii trip for next April for a wedding. This will definitely motivate me to get beach body ready post baby. And I get to live vicariously through my friend's DW, I really wish we had one.

    I also just ordered these gems for when I can finally where wedges again (actually ordered 2 pairs).

    Thanks ladies :)  It was a good trial run in my dress- now I know what I want to change about my hair.  It was the Arboretum.

    This is probably not a good AW but here goes...

    I just had McDonalds for lunch.   First time in YEARS.   Burger was just ok, but the fries were heavenly!!

    Now it will probably be a few more years before I do that again.  Have to get back on the diet/exercise ball.   I can't believe how out of shape I was attempting to run at the gym last night...its only been 2 weeks!

    Gorgeous bridals, Amber!  Your dress is beautiful!

    I signed up to run in my first marathon!  I'm running the White Rock marathon on December 5th!  Training started last week...and I'm so pumped!

    Marissa,
    I am taking a student, her sister and their mother.  We're going to London, Paris, Florence and Rome. 

    Amber,
    Your bridals look great!!!

    Mariah!
    That is so exciting! You are going to love it! There is nothing like coming across the finish after running 26.2 miles.

    Are you training with Lukes?

    Julie, I'm so jealous of your trip! 

    And I'm so glad that your mom is doing better!  Keep us updated.

    Mrs.Hoz, I'm not training with Luke's Locker.  Currently I'm running with Balfour about 2 times a week and also doing classes at 24 hour, plus running on my own on other days. 

    I WAS going to AW that I bought a tirimisu from Eatzi's today and only ate half of it....but ummm yeah....I just ate the whole thing.  Now I feel sick to my stomach.  I don't know why I couldn't stop eating it.  :(

    DH made it out of surgery and now we are back home relaxing.

    Great news Julie about your mom's recovery!

    Good job Marissa, I was still doing stuff on the day of due to my bad planning and a really slow printer.
