    Kayla - Yay for your vacation!

    As for me, I don't have much. 9 days to go!!

    We did put all the bridal shower gifts away last night. That was a huge task to take everything out of boxes, wash it, re-organize and find places for things, then break the boxes down. Feels good to have it done though!

    Tonight I'll be assembling my programs!

    OMG Jody - single digits!!! Woohoo!

    I don't have anything WR other than we got our TY notes out earlier this week. Even though I already AWed about it I figured I don't have much lately so I can do it again :) Still waiting (slightly less patiently) on our professional pics...I'm so not a patient person so this is extremely difficult lol.

    NWR we are getting our cabinets delivered next Tues so this weekend will be crazy getting the last appliances picked out, new flooring, and painting the kitchen but we'll have our NEW kitchen (minus countertops) when we move in - YAY!

    WR: Finished my BM's earrings last night, and 2 of the 4 bracelets.  Tonight I'm hoping to finish the other two and my bracelet.  Also got the shower thank you notes out yesterday.  Picking away at that to do list, one thing at a time!

    WR:  Still researching venues.  I know I am way out for my date, but I figure the venue is the one thing that can be booked early.  Maybe even lock in prices now.  :)

    WR/NWR:
    - I got a [small] raise at work, so I was able to budget for a florist instead of DIY our flowers.

    WR:
    - Booked my Brothers flight home for the wedding. I've been flight stalking for awhile and they finally went down (saved $200!).
    - Our first shower is on Sunday and I am super excited for part of my family to meet FI's.

    NWR: We moved out of Novi and couldn't be more happy.

    WR-9 days!!  I finished my programs today and handed off a bunch of wedding stuff to my friend/coordinator yesterday for her to decorate church/hall with..  Card box is almost done.  ITs assembled-just have to decorate it.

    NWR-I'm being considered for a promotion at work.  It will be a crazy hectic job-but an increase in pay and title-so we will see!

    picked up my wedding band (and got our jeweler to let us wait to pay for it until after the wedding...he is a total lifesaver right now). and if i do say so myself, it looks fantastic!
