It's been a BIG week for us! I bougnt my dress on Sunday. It feels so early to have this done. My sis and I went to try on dresses just for fun and to get an idea of what I might like, but I fell in love with the dress and couldn't leave without ordering it. 

We also booked our reception and ceremony venues this week and put our deposits down for those. I am so excited and happy! It definitely feels VERY real now. Waiting until July 5, 2013 is probably going to kill me!

Sometimes it's just the little things that make you "aw", FI woke up early today to head to a meeting downtown. He knows I can't function without coffee and I'm starving the minute my feet hit the floor. He made me coffee and breakfast this morning!  

And my dogs have been super lovey this morning. I think they know I'm trying to procrastinate on writing a paper.

My paper stuff for my invites came in last night.  Now on to making pocketfolds and assembling.

So much to AW about!

- We are under the 2 month mark!  OMG has time flown by by!!

- Got my Afloral order in.  Now to find time to finish putting the centerpieces, corsages, bouquet, and boutonnieres together.

- My dress fitting went wonderful!  Since the dress pretty much fit, the only thing I wanted them to do was make the back a corset.  They are going to do it for $120!!  I was so beyond happy to hear that price.  I figured it was going to be $200+ and wasn't sure I wanted to pay that much.  So next fitting is towards the end of Feb.

- Got my hair and makeup booked.  My stylist is going to come to my hotel the day of to do everything.  So happy I can stay at the hotel and just be pampered.

- FI ordered his new kilt hose and fly plaid for his outfit.

- More RSVPs keep coming in.  So far the only no's are 3 kids that are not coming with their parents and one person not bringing a guest!  Glad we are budgeted for 100% attendance, we may end up close to that!

We hit the 5 month mark on Monday!! Ahh -we started registering & actually found china we love! Never expected that. I was reallt stressing about registering but we are both feeling morecomfortable now and it's actually a little fun! -invites came in! -FI got a big raise! So happy for him.. He really deserved it. -I'd give him a raise if I paid him for being my FI lol. I've been a raging, whiny biotch the last 2 days and he's been the best. Takes such good care of me -we have our bowling league tonight

Our STD's came in yesterday.  They're the large size magnets from vista print.  With a groupon, we only paid $12 for them, so I'm really happy.  We couldn't pick which design, so we got two.

This one and the one in my siggy.  The border is less chunky, but had to be that big for VP to crop on the magnets.

Meghan -- glad to know I'm not the only one who can't make decisions, we did two STDs, too!

My AW is my MOH. I have an appointment on Saturday to finalize the table linens and my mom was supposed to come. My grandpa is in poor health, so she decided to go to Nebraska to see him at the last minute, leaving my to go to the meeting myself. I can handle it, but would've liked some company and a second opinion, so I asked FI to join, knowing it really wouldn't be his thing. He suggested I ask my MOH. I'm really not the type to drag my wedding party to vendor meetings, but it was actually a good idea/only option. And she agreed to tag along, joking about how she's never been so pumped about linens. Glad she was available at the last minute and willing to let me drag her around :-)
