September 2012 Weddings

Weekly checks!

Ahhh, ladies we are getting so close! It's going to be daily checks before we know it  lol. 

THIS PAST WEEK
Um, don't follow me lead, but I did absolutely nothing wedding related this past week. I was supposed to get my invites weighed, buy stamps, and assemble them and address them. None of this happened. Oppppps. 


THIS UPCOMING WEEK
Well, FI are on vacation this week. We're in CT right now for a golf tourny, and we're headed to Boston, Rhode Island, and Bristol later in the week. Needless to say, nothing is going to get done lol. I've set a hard deadline to get my invites out by July 14th, and at this rate it's going to be day-of.
