Gettin Hitched

While driving from one possible wedding location to another we stumbled across a wedding party setting up for a wedding.  They had the best sign out by the road to show people where the wedding was located.  I just had to have a picture :)

This sign is AWESOME!!

In case you cannot tell it was really bright out. 

D.I.Y Ring Bearer Pillow

One of my many DIY projects for the wedding was a handmade ring bearer pillow that matched my wedding colors.  Since it required sewing I recruited my grandmother for help :)  I picked up the fabric that I liked best and well she did the rest!  Thank God my granny.

Doesn't she look cute helping me :)

She did a great job of course. 

Easter, Granny's B-Day, & A little Wedding Planning :)

Luckily for my gas tank and my sanity Easter fell the same week as my granny's birthday this year and I didn't have to make an extra trip to TN. This year our family decided to celebrate Easter at Shoney's (my idea I am soooo smart) so that no one had to cook and we could spend the day with Gracie since she had to work. We had a great time and I am pretty sure everyone enjoyed it. I always wondered why families went out to eat for holidays and now I understand.

Me, Kurt, and Caylei of course :)

Granny With Caylei they both look soooo cute!

Nicole looking at her birthday gift we missed her birthday but we didn't forget.

Kurt holding Caylei.  He looks so happy holding her but she isn't quite sure LOL

This family dinner also included a trip to the ladies room to try on bridesmaids dresses.  They fit perfectly!!

Mary was so happy that hers fit.

My baby Nicole is growing up so fast she is a young woman now.  She is also the age that I was (14) when she was born.  Crazy right. 

Granny's Birthday was on Tuesday and we took her out to Captain D's (our favorite restaurant) for lunch unfortunately I forgot to take pictures.  As always we had a blast!  Next year is the big 80 for Granny and we are going to throw another party :).

Lets start planning a Wedding :)

I am back from Tennessee :)

I spent a very busy 7 days looking at wedding locations, wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, and color options. AHHHHHHHH I don’t think I have ever had so many people ask me questions that I did not know the answer too in my life.

What are your colors?  What type of flowers?  What type of food do you want to serve?  How many guests are you expecting?  And the list goes on & on.......

Luckily I had my best friend Sasha right there by my side to help me sort through all of the questions.  She was also really good at asking the questions that I would forget when looking at the locations.  I don't think that we found the perfect location yet but we were able to narrow it down quite a bit.  There are just sooo many beautiful places to host an outdoor wedding in Tennessee.  I am hoping that we can make an ultimate decision while visiting for Easter. 

On a separate planning note we ordered "save the date" cards to send to our entire out of state guest.  In an attempt to figure out how many of our out of state guest will be able to attend so that we get a large enough space.  They just came in so expect them in the mail in the very near future. 

We also started our wedding website and Honeymoon registry.

I am sooooo excited only 142 days til the wedding :)
