80 Day's in counting...

WOW in just 80 days we will be getting married! I can’t wait but man do we have a lot to do. My dress should be here today, I can’t wait to try it on. I just have to get all the goods to go along with it. We took our FINAL round of engagement pictures this past weekend, so invitations will be going out in the next couple of weeks. One might ask why we have been taking so many pictures and it’s not because we are that vain. Ha-ha. Our hope and plan is to turn the reception into one big scrapbook of Josh and I. So many of the pictures you see will be used in that hefty project. We have a lot of work to get to that point but everything is going along good. It’s crunch time. One of my best friends/bridesmaids back in Florida is throwing a Bridal shower for me the first weekend in Nov. Josh and I will be heading down a few days early to enjoy all of the Florida vs. Georgia pre-game festivities and of coarse to watch the Gators crush some little bulldogs. I’m very grateful for such amazing friends and family. My sister/maid of honor will be having a shower/workshop here in NC for us the next weekend. She’s awesome and always coming up with reasons to eat fabulous food and buy gifts. Josh asked me the other day, “Why don’t the guys get parties like this?” I asked him if he wanted to do all the smiling, thanking, hugging and write all the Thank You cards for all the help and for the gifts or would he just rather enjoy the gifts I bring home. Ha-ha I let you guess what his answer was. I do have to say he really has been great with all of this. He asks me daily for a list of things he can do. He’s pretty much amazing. Well I better get back to work. We love and miss you all. Hope everyone is happy and well.

Okay, I don't know what I did last time, but I finally found you have to click on something, etc., etc. Anyway, here's the much anticipated comment: I'm SO excited about the bridal pictures. Now that I've seen the dress, I've been planning different set-ups, and thinking how FUN it is going to be. We may have to take more than one set, in different places (joking, but at the same time, seriously, if you want...) The excitement is building!!
