Gettin Hitched

So if you got to the last paragraph of my last post, you'll have read that I'm getting married. I'm very excited about planning a wedding, but also somewhat overwhelmed. I want a wedding where everyone is genuinely glad they came. I want my bridesmaids to wear chocolate colored dresses. I want the dinner tables to surround the dance floor. I want a friend of a friend to DJ so they'll just play the songs I want and won't play the chicken dance or the hokey pokey. I used to want a strapless dress, but they've been so overdone, I'm going to have to find some other style. Something somewhat vintage. I've started a wedding notebook to figure all this stuff out. How nerdy! But it helps...
In other news, Saturday morning I was playing on a playground with a friend's kids, and I hit the top of my head SO unbelievably hard on a wood platform. So far, I haven't had any ill effects except for an excruciatingly painful-to-the-touch bruise on the top of my head. Hopefully no internal bleeding going on.

A wedding notebook? Sheesh! You are an overachiever. I had an expanding file folder . . . in which I kept clippings from bridal magazines . . . in neatly labeled compartments. I'm not sure what that makes me. Except really annoying! :) L

Can my "backup" chocolate dress have a bow on the butt???
As for YOUR dress- I can see you with short sleeves cut slightly off the shoulder....

Over the years, it has been determined, that children can cause headaches in adults....Thx for confirming to me that my kids have that affect on other adults too. GP
