What Are You Doing This Weekend?

Hi Ladies!  I know I've been a stranger, but I'm trying to get everything checked off the Things To Do List.  It's been a real challenge.  But I've also been having a lot of difficulty logging on to The Knot from my work and home computer.  They really need to consider investing more effort into making their website better.

WR
Get together with FI's aunt to work on the following DIY Projects:
*Program fans
*Personalize BM totes
*Possibly RD invitations (I'm thinking about scrapping this idea because it's so close to the time of the RD it seems pointless)
*Stamp cocktail napkins and guest towels

Book wedding night hotel
Look for new hairstyle for the wedding
Make wine bottle labels for wedding party
Create Menu stand
Make Bathroom Basket
Make sign for Favors
Get/Decorate birdcage for cards

NWR
None

I know it seems like a lot, but it's a lot of little stuff that won't take long I just need to set time aside to do it.  I get overwhelmed whe I think of how much needs to get done, but if I focus on how much I have done, it makes me feel a lot better. 

What are you ladies doing this weekend?

    WR: Keep looking for a wedding photographer and make a decision on which one I will use I have a list now and am comparing the pros and cons of each. That's about it now that's my big project for now. Once I get done with that I'll move on to finding a caterer.

    NWR: Try to find a dress for my sister's wedding that is next month. She just got engaged last week and the wedding is on July 3rd, 2010. So I have to pick out a dress for that. Relax with the FI and have our movie date night and finally attend church.
