Life as we know it

Right now... I am just tired. After not sleeping well two nights ago, and still trying to recover, I am just pooped. I found my wedding shoes or as a coworker stated "my cinderella slippers". After searching through 7 department/shoe stores I knew these were the ones as soon as I walked in.

Now it's just getting everything else done. First wedding dress fitting on Wednesday, friends wedding on Friday, my little sister graduates from high school on Saturday and we (my family except for Allen) leave for Connecticut on the 5th of June for my Uncle's Navy retirement celebration. Once we get back it will be  10 weeks until the wedding and 4 weeks until summer school begins.Wedding showers on the 3rd and 22nd of June and one on July 23rd. So what's left to do? Jewelry, finalize the reception with Chris (caterer), order invitations (i know, i know), programs, center pieces, finalize with cake baker, flower girl baskets, music, scan pictures for slide show, decide on wedding bands, more but too much going through my head.

When we went to our wedding counseling, the lady explain the difference between a mans brain and a woman's brain. Women have a ball of string. Everything is intertwined. For instance, right now i am thinking about what to write, the wedding, summer school, lesson plans for church, EYH workshops for MTSU, need to do laundry, wedding ideas, family stuff. However, a man's brain is very different. They have a one room brain like a hotel. Everything has a room and you can't be in two rooms at the same time. Like Allen cant play Call of Duty and talk wedding. It is just impossible. Or talk and eat at the same time. It is either one or the other.

Oh the insainity...

Things have begun to pick up on my end. Bridesmaid dresses are almost ordered (except for my sisters). Still in search of flowergirl dresses. You know when have a picture of something in your mind and are in search of that picture. Well that is what i am going through. Little white puffy dresses that seems to be hard to find as Christmas. Ross, Marshal's, TJ Max, Belk, Walmart, Children's place, Gymbori, Baby Gap, Sears, JC Penny's all a negative. Still looking any ideas?
Perfecting the guest list at this moment before we go order the invitations this week. Hopefully this week.

Engagement Pictures

Finally!

After several weeks of scheduling and rescheduling, they are finally done. We had to work between tornadoes, torrential down pours, finals and sleep patterns.  Just a sampling...
