Weather, Showers, Etc

The lingerie shower was really fun last night, we all had a great dinner, I got a ton of cute stuff (a good mix of things!), good cake, and then sitting around talking & telling stories for hours. I want to at least post the picture of the cake, because it was so cute! Also, I forgot to mention - Chase has promised if it rains Saturday and we have ...

ZOMG… the wedding is nearly upon us

If we were having the ceremony somewhere that allowed it, Indiana totally would have been in the wedding - look at "Flower Girl" and "Ringbearer" doggie t-shirts. I would be all over that, LOL. There's some other stuff on that site I kinda want - it would probably come in time if I ordered today, but man, it's so close. We found an apartment we love, it's a great location ...

I bought some essential stuff for the beach... sunscreen, travel sized toothpaste and shampoo, new sunglasses since mine are MIA. I haven't been to the beach in literally ...

We went to pick up our dresses - and I tried mine on, and I simply cannot believe the amazing job she did on mine. She redid all the beading on both sides, and it looks perfect, like she never had to take it up 3 inches on either side! I'm so excited :) If I can find a time this week when Chase is not home, I may put it on ...

We have a minister! The current senior minister at my church is able to do the service! I've honestly not met him before - he's only been there just a little over a year or so now - we don't go all that often, and when we do, we go to the contemporary service, because dad plays guitar for it. But, we met with him last night, and he was ...

Wedding Invites!

We got the proofs of our invitations yesterday - LOVE THEM!! I'm so happy with how they've turned out. Tonight we get to start assembling them ! :) PS, my swimsuit thing did get resolved! They said it was their error (which it was), they are sending me the correct top and sent a UPS driver out yesterday to pick up the incorrect one. Yay!
