Final Countdown Checks!

My last week to AW about checks and get all bridal giddy with you guys!- Saturday I tried on my dress for the last time until the wedding and brought it home with me! Brought two bridesmaids who haven't seen it on me yet, which was a great idea because they totally boosted my ego! Also, it happened to be the anniversary of my dad's death...that plus trying on my wedding dress a week before my wedding...I was a little scared to get teary alone. Def didn't happen with my friends there!- Went to the mall and got a RD dress with FI! It was totally Pretty Woman. Tried on a bunch for him and he loved them, but helped me pick "the one" and bought it for me, haha. It was fun.- Almost done with seating arrangements--FI is finalizing his parents' people right now. It was kind of hard at first but once we got rolling it was fun.- Went to Costco for welcome bag goodies. Man that place overwhelms me. Then we realized at the checkout line that they only take debit or American Express. Woops. FI had to run and get cash out while I guarded our cart. I just got sent a new debit card and haven't reset the pin yet. What bad timing. But it worked out.Anyway, those are the biggies! I can't believe this is the last week!

    I know, it used to be sooo far off. The last couple of months totally fly! Your day will be here so soon, Tree!My last day of work is Thursday, but I'm going to try and leave early.The sad thing is I have to come in half a day Monday, then Tues and Wednesday next week. But then we leave for the European HM next Thursday for more than 2 weeks! I can't wait for that. I think I'm still in denial that the HM is happening. But that's how I was last week about the wedding, and now that is settling in.

    Yay for checks!  so exciting.  I usually go crazy in Costco/ BJs/Sams and end up with more stuff that I originally wanted.  50 jars of salsa?  of course I need that :P

    Haha, Costco is nutso! We called our friend who was having a crab feast that night and said, can we get anything? She goes, we need butter. We were like ummm...do you need a 50 pound jar? So supersized. Reminds me of that level of Super Mario Bros original flavor, where everything's huuuge.We're flying to Rome next Thursday, then we board a cruise for 10 days, and it goes to Sicily, Naples, Barcelona, Monte Carlo...and I think one or two more, can't keep track! After the cruise we're staying in Rome for 5 nights!
