Good Morning! Last night DF and I went to church for ash wednesday and then picked up our new DYSON! It is a wedding gift from FBIL/FSIL Funny the things that excite us. And that was pretty much our night!

Hope everyone has a great day! Any exciting plans for the upcoming weekend?

Good morning ladies!!  Sorry I have been MIA...work is crazy during our corp. tax prep time.  I love my job, but I despise these 2 weeks each year! 
We have been in a wedding lull lately.  We have all of our major vendors contracted, the dress is bought and the STDs have been sent.  Now on to the little things.  We have a meeting with our wedding planner on Monday.  I always like seeing her. She gets me back on track. She is super organized and always has great ways to bring my ideas together.

I am not looking forward to all of the snow they are predicting. I am thinking that lil' groundhog messed up a bit and I may have to take a trip to go set him straight...lol.

Another good thing about next week is I have another appt with my sports medicine doc....hoping to get cleared to start running.  My ankle still hurts and I don't want to do more damage, but not running is starting to make me sad

Have a great day y'all!

DP- We are registered for a Dyson.  With our 2 fur makers we need a new vacuum desperately.  Let me know how you like it.

Good morning.  It's going to rain 2-3 inches here today.  At least I'm not in Pittsburgh with the snow though.  It really feels like it should be Friday.

Hi ladies!

Today is a great day - After ten days away my FI is finally coming home from Oregon! I can't wait to see him! This afternoon I am also meeting with Sumer from Simply Perfect Weddings to set up a little bit of help for this whole planning process! Really excited to meet her, I love her blog and she seems to have great ideas.

Last night I started to work on those adorable personalized hangers for wedding dress and BM dresses. The wire I got was a little thick, but my first attempt wasn't too bad! Attempt #2 planned for tonight! I'm really excited about all the little details and I'm glad I still have over a year to incorporate them into planning.

Hope everybody has a great day! Let's pray the temp stays up and we stick with rain and no snow!

Lindsay...we are using Sumer.  We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her!!!!  I am sure you will too.  She has been an absolute gem.  I can't imagine planning this without her. Let me know how it goes.
Tell her Janice said "Hi".

Hey everyone!

Not much going on here. Busy at work as usual (my FI and I are both accountants/CPAs as well so this time of year is just awful). Not as busy as I was last year though when I was in public accounting thankfully.

So today marks the one year before I am married- our wedding is on March 10th 2012 :-) The countdown begins!

Have a good day every body!

Hi girls!
Last night was pretty uneventful - FI and I went to dinner then he had to get something at the mall so we walked around there a bit. After that I got about 1/2 of the envelope return address printed - moving right along! Hope everyone is well!

db -WOOHOO!!!!! I wanted a Dyson but FI said it wasn't worth the money - booo - so we registered for the Shark.

Janice - yay for sending out your STDs!

amy - we didn't get nearly as much rain as was predicted... I sometimes hate the news - they make people panic which causes traffic to be a disaster

lindsay - GL with the hanger!!

md - yay for your DC trip! Hope today goes quick for you!

sari - woohoo for 1 year - it will go by SO fast! trust me!!! lol

G - how was printing the return addresses on the back of the envelopes? I want to do that too but am nervous that I won't get them centered right

gmc22

db - it was pretty annoying (and time consuming). I printed the addresses on the fronts a while back and found that I had to tape each envelope to an 8-1/2 x 11 sheet so that the printer didn't 'eat' the envelopes. So for the backs, I had to do the same (tape down the envelope) PLUS I had to tape down the flaps so they didn't get 'eaten' either... it is quite a production...

As for spacing, do you have photoshop? I printed them all through photoshop and I got the spacing perfect by creating a new photoshop file the exact size of the envelope, then I created a 'custom' print setting, that I set to the same measurements. It then printed in the bottom right corner of the paper, so I taped the envelopes 'upside down' to align with the bottom right of the 8-1/2 x 11 - does that make sense?? Lol... overall A LOT of work.

I can take pictures of what I mean when I get home if you'd like!

dbpsu18

Hmmmm i think you just confirmed my idea of getting a STAMP with our address!! I love the look of them printed on the back of the envelope but I dont think i'd have the patience to tape then print and all that. Thank you for explaining!!

G, you seriously have amounts of patience that are totally foreign to me.  I would have given up on the invites long, long ago.  I am amazed at the work you have done for your invites, sincerely.
