Re: What is everyone doing this weekend?

  • Lots of watching basketball.
    Playing in a huge volleyball tournament.
    And scraping paint of our glass mugs. Ugh!

  • Tonight we're having friend over to watch THE game. It kind of stinks that tipoff is at 10:17, but that doesn't mean I won't be running around the neighborhood at whatever time the game's over if we win.

    Tomorrow I'm going to see my grandma in the afternoon and then meeting my MOH for dinner for her to get her dress and to talk shoes for the wedding

    Sunday is church, tennis with FI and then his fam is coming up. They said it was to talk about the rehearsal dinner, but I'm not sure what there is to talk about.
  • Tonight watching basketball (GO UK!) with friends. Packing for our trip. 

    Tomorrow: Leave for Costa Rica! We are super excited. We have friends getting married down there. Vacation and seeing long distance friends....perfect!

  • It's FI's kids weekend

    Tonight: Grocery shopping while FI takes his daughter to her last basketball game of the season and drops his son off at the movies

    Tomorrow: Work from 7-11am (maybe), possibly getting a trim and my hair done. Drop off kids at aunts/uncles house, out to dinner with FI,  then Jack & Jill at 8pm. I can't wait!! This is the first wedding-related party that we'll have and it is making it so much more real to us!!

    Sunday: Resting with my foot up. I'm probably not going to wear my boot and I'll be drinking and dancing a lot so I know I'll be putting ice on my foot and having it up most of the morning/afternoon.

  • My weekend starts today. Since I'm home alone, I'm doing laundry and cleaning to get it out of the way. Then tomorrow my sweetie is taking me to see The Hunger Games and to do a little shopping. No wedding stuff this weekend. I think I'm burned out.

    Hope you all have a great weekend!!!

  • Tonight we're going to a wedding band event at the jewelry store my engagement ring came from. Hopefully we'll both find something and get that crossed off the list.
    Tomorrow is my first dress fitting! I have a box of jewelry to try on with the dress to see what looks best. It was hard trying to pick stuff out when I haven't seen the dress since July.
    Sunday will probably be spent cleaning, watching the race, and working on some invitation stuff. I'm looking forward to not having to work this weekend so I can actually get stuff done!

  • Laundry, food shopping, hopefully seeing HG and some wedding stuff.  It should be a pretty low key weekend except for working a couple of hours tomorrow morning.
  • Tonight:  FI and I got a groupon for a night at this resort about an hour away so we are going to take up dinner and wine and have fun!

    Tomorrow:  Exploring the area near the resort....see what hikes are around, etc.

  • Tonight: fi and I are going to the Ranger game, they are playing the sabers so it should be a good one! We are going to dinner before the game, because the food at the garden is expensive after the remodel. Saturday: we are going to a local event "grill in on the bay" it's held every year in the school yard of my church, BBQ masters from all over the country come to showcase their food. Fi and I love BBQ food so we look toward to this event and the best part is it's free you only pay for the food you want. At night we are going out for fsil's birthday celebration with friends, dinner and drinks. Sunday: we are getting up early and packing the rest of his stuff up at his parents house, and my stuff at my parents place. While fi is hauling the stuff over to our apartment my sister (moh) and my mom are going to help me assemble our invitations. Then we have fsil's family birthday cake on her actual birthday.

  • Tonight: Making salmon & then maybe going to BBB to get a new showerhead.  We registered for one but I broke ours last night.  Also maybe going to Joann's to get some crafting supplies since its in the same plaza.

    Tomorrow: FG dress shopping!  This will be one of my first outings with FI's mother & sisters that he won't be there for and I'm not really looking forward to it!  They live in a city an hour and a half away too & FI was going to drive there & go pick out tuxes, so I was hoping he could just drop me off at his sister's house, but she isn't offering to drive.  I don't know my way around the city & my gps doesn't work so this should be fun.

    Sunday: Recovering from FI's family by spending the day with mine.  Going to my parents' house to start addressing the invitation envelopes, maybe look through some of my mom's earrings for my something borrowed.  Then going to see Hunger Games with my mom, aunt, & cousin!!  Can't wait!!

  • Tonight- Trial for my wedding hair style. I am a little nervous. I am getting weave, I havent had that done since high school.  But I want it for the wedding becuase my hair is all natural and very thick. I will have an afro at my wedding with out it.

    Tomorrow: Church and my FI is now in charge of Drama and Puppet ministry. He has rehersal for the kids tomorrow so I will be at church late.

    Sunday- I will try to look for my veil. I also want to go bike riding

  • Hair and make up trial with my friend Jenny, who is getting married 3 weeks after me.   Then I am going to help MOH with my shower invitations.  I will probably end up filling most of them out and addressing them.....she is starting to be a major diva over the whole thing.  The other day, she said I was shooting down all of her ideas, just because I asked if we could not request to have people wear hats (she wants the them to be high tea) to the shower b/c most people wouldn't have one.  UGH!  So I feel like I have to walk around on eggshells in front of her.

    Other than that....I am hoping to get my bedroom organized.  FI might help, but I doubt it.  I need to start getting packed.  I'm moving in about 2 months, and I DO NOT look forward to that chore!
