Happy Friday Ladies!  I'm so looking forward to the weekend.  This has been a crazy, hectic week.  Every week is crazy and hectic for me, actually.  And it's going to be a hectic Friday.  I cannot wait until this day ends.

WR
Hair trial
Continue my never ending search for fuchsia beads for BM jewelry
Begin prototype for program fans, menu cards, and table name cards
Play around with these invitations

NWR
File taxes (I'm serious this time, I'm really going to do it)
Clean up
Watch shows recorded throughout the week

What are your WR (Wedding Related) and NWR (non-wedding related) plans this weekend?

    Good Morning ladies!  This weekend I'm going to visit my mom and sister for my sisters birthday.  It should be fun, but I always feel weird when I spend a night away from my daughter. 

    No WR plans, but I am going to go to the gym Sat/Sun since our 1st anniversary vacation is coming up quickly.

    WR:
    - Pick up my DRESS!!  Just  got the email this morning that it came in...I'm SO SO SO excited!
    - work with my classmate to build the wedding web site (we've been planning to do that for the past two weekends, but I definitely need to get it started this weekend!)
    - look for flower examples again on line
    - look for bridal shoes...I'm just not feeling a lot of the styles online, so I was going to try Nordstrom or Saks
    - set up make up trials with two of my friends locally who do make up (still not sure who I'm going to choose, or if I'm going to splurge on the airbrushing)

    NWR:
    - research a company that I have an interview with (April 1)
    - study for classes
    - get painter to come over to repaint cabinets
    - go to the gym tonight and tomorrow
    - drive around to put up for sale flyers (for my condo) at college campuses, etc.

    @Stackeye - where are you going for your 1 year anniversary vacation?  That's so exciting!

    WR:
    --Tonight FI and I are having a wedding meeting.  I'm starting to feel overwhelmed and he is starting to annoy me with his cluelessness. So we are going over EVERYTHING tonight to make sure we are on track and on the same page.
    --Sunday we're meeting with our DOC to go over our battle plan.  

    NWR:
    --Saturday headed to Sunset Hills Vineyard for their "Summer Beach Party" event. 
    --That night we're going to see the Canadian heavy metal group Anvil at 9:30Club.  We're super excited.  We saw their documentary last year and became instant fans.
    --Sunday we're spending time with his parents.
    --Dinner with people I don't know and FI barely knows but nevertheless they invited us to their wedding so we both figured maybe we should hangout with them before then.  Crazy!

Luckily I am only making 15 oot bags we are giving our parents something different, and we are giving 1 bag per couple coming from oot, and the wedding party have different bags.

    For our son's bday we are going to go drive to Orlando an hour away, and hang out in Downtown Disney and have dinner @ his fav resturant the Trex Cafe. We also got him a new game system, giftcard for some new games,and put money in his bank account, he is a WONDERFUL kid, we couldnt be luckier as parents, he has been on honor roll al school year and we are just so blessed to be his parents. Our kids are not allowed to watch tv or play video games during the school week so he is going to be so excited to see he got a new game system!

    Ok.  There is a new person for me to hate on MIABRIDE, What In The World!!!!  So, everyone gets to see Mary in concert but me, huh!  I need to check to see when she is coming to NC.  This is getting ridiculous!
    @Cincy, gorgeous dress.  I know that you are excited.  I know that you will look like a princess.
    @Tinamm, I would like to be an out of town guest at your wedding.  I mean, I know you're trying to keep it small, but c'mon.  Well, I'll settle for an OOT bag.  :).  OH!  And where is your bio?!  I wanna hear some Jeffrey!

    Leaving for Miami to go on a 7-day cruise w/ hubby.  Our honeymoon was our first cruise and since then we've been getting so many "past guest specials" that we decided to take another one before the prices go up in April. Also, upon returning from our 1st cruise, the airline was over booked and "bumped" us  in exchange for $300 each in airline money....SO we don't even have to pay for our flights this time! We have both been so stressed with work and groggy so this relaxation is much needed.  I'm just getting to know you girls and will miss not logging in for the next week.
