Those CD's look great. What songs did you put on them?

Jessica - those flowers will look great in the centre pieces. Make sure you post a pic when you have one together.

Here is what I have so far on the CDs:

It's Five O'Clock Somewhere -Alan Jackson and Jimmy Buffet

Guitars and Tiki Bars -Kenney Chesney

Temperature -Sean Paul

Hips Dont Lie -Shakira

When the Sun Goes Down -Kenney Chesney

Stays in Mexico -Toby Keith

Starfish -Sister Hazel

No Shirt, No Shoes, No Problem -Kenney Chesney

Margaritaville -Jimmy Buffett

Mas Tequila -Sammy Hagar

Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off -Joe Nichols

FI thinks we should take out Temperature and Hips Dont Lie if we can find replacements. Kinda going for beachy, Mexico, summer party music. Thoughts, suggestions?

On a side note...thank you all for your well wishes, my procedure on Wednesday went well (love that anasthesia) the after effects was pretty painful and lets put it this way, they told me my bandage was low but I never expected to find it in my ass crack, yikes!! Now thats a bit embarassing!! But after a few tough days I feel pretty good today! Thank you all for your thoughts!!

warning - about to vent a little.

I hate my seating chart!! It's so hard!! We have 43 people going. 75% of the group is my mom's family. Then we have a wierd variety of "kids". ie 1 11 year old, 2 13 year olds, 2 16 year old, 1 18 year old. Do they all go at one table?

But then there is the issue of FI's brothers. One is 27, the other is 18. FI thinks they should sit together. Wouldn't it be weird to put a table of late 20s/early 30s together and then a random 18 year old?

Seriously. Why is this so hard?

I was starting to work on a seating plan awhile ago but then decided to forego the whole thing. We will have the head table and then everyone can sit at the other tables around. That was a nice item to cross off the list and not have to worry about doing!!!!

Tsra,

I would seat the kids with their parents. I also think it would be fine to put them together as well - just leave some paper and crayons on the table. It will give them something to occupy their time. I think it would be fine to have your two brothers sit at the same table. It will make them feel special. I wouldn't separate them.

Steph,

I would take out Shakira (Personally - I can't stand her nasaly voice - it sounds like nails on chalkboard for me)lol - and add "Mexico" - I think it's by James Taylor. I love that song! (I think we may use it for our slideshow at our AHR)

What about "Tequila" by The Champs? (we are using that for our cake cutting song)

Hope this helps! Glad to hear you are up and around. I am going to be clearing a space off my desk here in a bit so I can take some pics of my stuff and post tomorrow.

Celina, good idea for the song. and you bet you better start posting some pics, HA!!

I cant believe I forgot to tell you girls the most important thing I did yesterday...mailed our invitations!!! Holy crap!!! Yeah!!
