Ok, it's time for me to get back in gear.  The break is over and the wedding is fast approaching so I need to get back in planning mode.
-Mail out Part II of invitations
-Look for hotel room for my mom and cousins
-Shop for e-pic shoes (YAY, can't wait! I love shoes!)
-Work on BM newsletters
-Work on prototype for DIY projects
-Call my florist and get on her azz about meeting to see the centerpieces
-Call Pastor to schedule a time to meet with him
-E-mail another car club in search of wedding day transportation
-Look for a hotel for wedding night

NWR
-FI and I are going to a local vineyard to drink wine and watch a live band perform
-FI and I rented some movie on Netflix, so we'll probably watch that tonight
-Watch my TV shows that I recorded throughout the week.  I have a lot to watch!

What are you ladies doing this weekend?

    Ahh! i missed you all today! I ACTUALLY HAD TO WORK! :-(  Or at least, not be on my computer because there were other teachers around, haha.
    Weekend plans - BIG -- driving to kansas city tomorrow.  Sunday I have meetings with: venue, church and photographer.  My mother and grandma are coming down from Nebraska to go with me.  then FI is coming in town after work on Sunday and on Monday he and I are going to the venue and church (and hopefully paying deposits and setting a date!!!!) and then have meetings with photographer option #2 and a florist.  whew... lots! And I'm so excited!
    Oh, and I get to try on my dress that my mom has had in Nebraska since it came in earlier this month. eek!
    Laundry night....
