Headed back to our hometown.  Meeting with the church and going over our FOCCUS test results finally (we took it in like October). Then time with families.

I'm glad it's Friday. 

Today I'm leaving work a few minutes early because honestly, I can and I'm sick of looking at my desk.  After work my FI and I are making dinner together and maybe working on assembling more invites.

Saturday: Driving by to look at more potential houses, going to my credit union to get preapproved for a mortgage (*fingers crossed*), and maybe doing some stuff downtown.

Sunday: Mostly more DIY stuff.

WR: Going shopping with FMIL for her dress, looking for centerpieces, and FI's band

NWR: My parents are coming over for dinner for the first time since FI and I moved into our house (we moved in in AUGUST...and they live 10 minutes away...whoops!) And....the ever dreaded homework...ugh

I'm leaving work around 12:30-1 today.  I'll be doing a mountain of laundry and cleaning today/tonight.

Other than that we have no plans this weekend except to clean out the ridiculous amount of shows on the dvr and that makes me a happy panda!

I'm going to a BM's baby shower tomorrow--excited!

Tonight: cooking for fi and "watching" his grandpa Saturday: getting up early to head over to our new apartment, we are having cable/phone/Internet hooked up, and need to do some other new apartment stuff. Sunday: more apartment stuff during the day, and then having birthday cake and coffee at fsil's house for fi's brother in law's birthday

This week went SO fast!! I cant believe its Friday!

Tonight- FI and I are going to the Love and Respect video conference.... I am so excited!

Tomorrow: Part 2 of the Love and Respect Viceo Conference then spending the day at home.

FI's kids weekend!

Tonight: Dropping off 2 of the boys (one being my son, the other FI's) at the arena to watch UML hockey game. It'll be the first time my son goes somewhere with no adult supervision. He'll be 11 next month and FI's son is 12. They will be meeting up with a few other friends that are 12/13 yrs old. Let's see how it goes.

Tomorrow: Work in the morning. The boys will be going to a b-day party for a friend so I think I might take FI's daughter with me to pick up her dress (just came in)! FI has to work at night so I'll be home with the 4 kids. I think I'll work on more invitations & stuff.

Sunday: Church, couponing class. After that, I think I'm going to head to the mall and pick up something for Valentine's Day for FI. I'm also going to look at rings for him. He showed me what he likes, so I might just buy one for him if the sale is good enough.

Oh, then there's all the normal cleaning and laundry and stuff that has to get done this weekend as well.

MMRoberts~ Good Luck on the mortgage approval.

Oh my weekends pretty much suck now. Ha! FI has to work weekend nights for the next 4-5 months   So I pretty much work on DIY wedding stuff; which I will probably do this weekend. I have lots of lanterns to finish.

and I have been sooooo exhausted this weekend so I will be sleeping LOTS and of course my normal Zumba classes tonight and tomorrow

How many "components" do you have?  I'm starting to think of the assemply process and I won't be using pockets, so I need to look into ribbon, twine, or some kind of band.

DrPB2b13

Tonight:  Staff meeting at work
Tomorrow:  Homework, and hopefully a date night or morning with FI
Sunday:  Homework.

I lead a very unexciting life right now, lol.

kelsey+brandon

We have a meeting at our venue with the coordinator at 5 today. I'm really excited to get some of our questions answered and talk about the menu!

Tomorrow I'm going antiquing with my mom! We're looking for pretty dessert plates that we can use to write the table numbers on. Then we're going to dinner with my family and then FI and I are hanging out with some friends.

Sunday we're going to church and I'm finally going to start my 30 day challenge.

chelseakopperud

@Kelsey- Have fun!! That all sounds so exciting!!!

niknik15

Tonight, we are going to dinner with a couple I work with at an amazing pizza place that lets you bring your own wine and beer and they have bands play every night.

Tomorrow, I need to get crafty. I need to modge podge a picture I want to hang in our living room, redo some of my fabric flowers because we have a slight change in wedding colors, and make my little sister's dress. I doubt if I will finish all of that, but hopefully I can make a good dent in it. Then a birthday party for FI's sister.

Sunday - Laundry and cleaning.

BluIvory82

I am trying on my dress tomorrow! I am super excited! 
I am also going to pick out overlays for our tables.
I am going to meet with another florist and hope that he can bring my centerpiece vision to life without overcharging me.
I am also going to the venue to measure how long my aisle runner needs to be.

Oh and tons of studying. I have so much studying to do.

HarperBargo

Tonight: Dinner with friends at our favorite Mexican place.

Tomorrow night: date night. We are making dinner together and then heading to the Symphony (FI surprised me with tickets). They are performing one of my favorite pieces.

Sunday: not sure yet.

G2SoccerTaz

Tonight - Making home made burritos and doing crossword puzzles together.

Saturday - house work with a friend's birthday party that evening.

Sunday - Church and finish up painting the hallway. Maybe look at houses or discuss what projects to do at the house we are in.

This weekend will be a wedding free one. I cannot wait till the Texas Rangers are back on t.v and then my weekends will be exciting again.

SheilaDancer43

Tonight: Bootcamp at 6. Then probably nothing. Resting, watching some DVR'd shows. Saturday: Probably nothing! Haha. Some homework maybe...and going to the grocery store to get everything I need to make breakfast, dinner, and treats for V-Day. Sunday: FI and my One Year Engagement Anniversary!! We may go to dinner, or we may decide to go on Saturday instead...idk yet, but it will be celebrated this weekend.

Mine isn't too bad.  I'm making the pocketfolds myself so really that's the biggest time commitment.  After the pocketfold is assembled it's simply attaching the actual invite and putting everything in the pocket.

sjhansen28

I get to go see FI this weekend! He's been in California for work for the past three weeks, and it's been so hard without him. We live in different cities right now anyway, but usually see each other at least every two weeks. So I'm pretty excited about it

ncd5015

Tonight - I'm taking my Nana to see a play

Tomorrow - baby shower in the morning and I need to do some serious laundry! Probably go to church in the afternoon

Sunday - Going to lunch and to see The Vow with one of my BM

Wow!  That sounds like a big project.  May I ask how you're making them?  Is it more cost-effective than purchasing them?

Hilraythebride

My FI just left for work about 15 minutes ago today he works from 12-9.  We had a nice lazy morning together than when he gets home tonight its straight to bed with him because he has his LSAT tomorrow.

No plans for Sunday hopefully it is nice out so we can go to the beach or hang out in the park.

I'm really hoping to hear back from forver 21 today.  The DM called me yesterday and the interview went really well she said she is going to call the store manager back.  Hopefully she does that today so I can get scheduled to come back in Monday!  Hoping for some good news and really looking forward to settling down here and getting onto a schedule.

I simply made a template with paper and now I'm assembling them.  I made a template so they would work best with my invitations and the rest of the paper products (done with VP). 
It is WAY more cost effective than purchasing them though it can take a lot of time to assemble.  I can get 1.5 pocketfolds out of a normal 8 1/2" x 11" piece of cardstock.  I paid about $2 per 50 sheets at Joanns with a coupon so that works out to about a quarter per pocketfold.  Then I just have glue dots to hold everything together which costs a few cents more per completely assembled invite.
