I did it!

I survived an overload of wedding plans this weekend!

Friday night came the trip to Ken and Sam's for dinner, the game and the PLANNING SESH.
Instead of being able to watch the game, I got to sit at a table and talk about what foods I want displayed, in what way, with what drinks, what I wanted on the tables, etc etc. Not so fun. (The best part about this part is that I got to taste some of them!) So now we have our 'menu' (including over 700 pieces of candy!!) that will be on a table artistically displayed, thanks to Sam. And I'm tempted to list them here so you can gush over them, but I kinda want to wait so I can put up pictures of them too!

Saturday morning came with General Conference. In the break between sessions, I went to meet the nicest flower lady and her daughter. SO SO sweet. And so helpful. They had loads of ideas which is amazing because I just went in there with a couple of pictures from a magazine with no idea of what flowers were actually in it. And they came up with a ideas for boutonnières and bouquets and table toppers and the whole shebang! So I'm having a bouquet with lilies and then with a bunch of other things I can't remember the names of because they are unusual. Privet berries were one of them I think. And grass? And some willow? I don't know. But I'm excited. :)
There is some of this in there:

Then after we got back from Marci's, we went to Men's Wearhouse. Who knew that trying to pick out 3 vests and 11 ties could take more than 15 minutes?! Not me. But we were successful eventually. And I'm really pleased with what we got. Especially one purple,silver, and black paisley tie. LOVE it.

After that I was pretty much wedding-ed out. Is that a word? It is now.
So many plans. So little time. A little more than 5 weeks? How did time go by so fast?

P.S. my car has a brand spanking new windshield that looks simply fabulous. PLUS a new rearview mirror that doesn't come off every time you try to adjust it! hallelujah. And all for the great low price of $174. Oh and it passed inspection. We owe so much to David's dad. He saved us soooooooo much money.

And now. 7 school days left.
Back to finishing the reading.
But summer is coming!!!!
