LESS THAN 8 WEEKS!!!!!!!!!

I am sooooooooooooo excited! I can't believe that we have less than 8 weeks left! Earlier this week, all I could think was that the wedding seemed so far away. My Bridal Shower was last weekend and I kept thinking that now that the bridal shower was over, there wasn't anything left to look forward to before the wedding and that was "so far" away. But now all I can think is that there are less than 8 weeks left and weeks just seem to fly by - it's going to be here before we realize it!!!

The past two weeks went by so quickly! I was completely embroiled with invitations right up until last weekend. The invitations were a lot of work, but they turned out beautifully! I've been getting a lot of complements on the invites, which is very exciting to me because, well, they were a lot of work. But, they're exactly what I wanted and even though I spent more than I was expecting to on them, I still would have paid twice as much if I bought them rather than made them myself. Here's a pic of all the invites waiting to go in the mail:



I was so psyched to get them in the mail! I must have looked like a tool at the post office - I was grinning to myself as I walked out passing grumpy looking people in line.

Last Saturday was Heather and Jude's wedding. It was a gorgeous day! The weather was beautiful and so was the wedding. Heather looked fabulous! The ceremony was at St. Pius X in Loudonville. After the ceremony, we all went to the Desmond - where most of the guests were staying - for a drink, and then went to Wolfert's Roost for the reception. There was dinner and drinking and dancing - it was a fun night!



The next day was my bridal shower. My bridesmaids did such a great job!! The shower was at the Callaway Grill, which is right across the street from the Desmond, so it was really easy for my family members who were in from out of town to get there. They decorated the room with potted flowers and chocolate and white balloons - it looked great! The favors were cute 4 packs of glass coasters with "Love" etched into them tied with chiffon and little tags with our names and wedding date on them. The food was great and the girls ran the shower so smoothly that it only took 2 hours! I got so many great gifts!! It was so much fun!



Now, I just can't wait for the wedding! There are a lot details to still attend to - but I'm not worried. I can't wait!!!!! :)
