Typing on a full stomach

Today my mom and I spent the day gallivanting all over town picking up cake samples. We drove down into farmington, stopped by Mrs. Maddox's and left with a delightful box of goodies. We also hit up a bakery in Milford and Novi. We walked in the door this evening with several white boxes, giddy with excitement. We spread out all the different samples on the table, and after some deliberation, I think we found a winner. Now I'm absolutely stuffed...but in a good way. It was really nice to spend the day with my mom, and we shared many laughs!

The picture doesn't look too appetizing, but believe me they were good.



Happy Monday to you all!

Dress Shopping

The other day I met my aunt and cousins and we bought the flower girl dresses! my cousins Sophia (5) and Sadie (9) are my flower girls. They were so excited when they got to try on the dress. Sadie, is a little fashionista, and asked me what kind of shoes they could wear for the wedding. I told them i really didn't care, and she immediately asked if she could wear heels...sparkly heels at that too! Janie quickly jumped in and told her that heels wouldn't be a good idea, since she's going to be on her feet all day long, so they settled for flats. sparkly flats though. I think these girls are more excited than I am for the wedding...only joking. I also told the girls that we'd go shopping for hair pieces for them, so looks like i have a shopping date soon.

aside from wedding planning, it's bitter cold down here! I can not wait for spring to come, the warm weather will also bring good things ( graduation and wedding.)

I'm sitting here snuggled on the couch, watching Regis and Kelly, trying to work up the courage to workout before I have to head to school.

Hope you all have a good day.

Pretty Pearls

This weekend I found a few treasures. Dave's family is in the process of cleaning out Paula's dad's house and they are having an estate sale this coming up weekend. (Thursday though Saturday if you're interested) So anyways, I went over there on saturday to help out and I found these pearls while I was over there. My mom and dad also dropped by to take a sneak peak, and when we were walking around, we found these pearls. I'm pretty sure that they are going to match my dress, i'll have to try them on. So now, I have something new (dress), something old (pearls), something borrowed (hankie), now i need something blue....

Now this coming up week, I need to really get into motion about figuring out my arrangments and what not. I really should get on that, but for now, i'm going to relax and enjoy my coffee before my day starts. Hope you all have a wonderful day!

girls just gotta have shoes

Who doesn't like a new pair of heels? anybody? I love them. I really love them when they're for my wedding dress. I found the perfect pair of heels to go with my gown, it's almost unreal. Yesterday, my mom and I headed over to Macy's to complete my wedding registry. After lunching and registring, we strolled on down the Nordstrom's. Lo and behold, we're coming down the escalators and a shimmering in the corner of my eye caught my attention....my wedding shoes. I know, I sound dramatic, but this is how it really happened, honest. So I found my size, paid the man, and got to take my sparkling beauties home with me. I slept with them last night. Honest, I'm just as happy the day I found my dress...the shoes make up the outfit. I'll even show them off....but not the gown, that'll have to wait until May 7th, 2011!




Aside from my shoe find, I've been busy planning away for the big day. The holidays flew by, and now it's February, and I've got to get cracking. The cake has to be ordered, dresses fitted, flowers ordered...the whole nine yards. My goal, once again, is to get on here more, and make note of what i've done with regards to the wedding planning. So wish me luck.
