i want to nominate Abbie as the Mrs. MOTM ... cuz with all you've gone through/are going through (both good and bad!) you must be crazy busy, yet you still contribute here! i will need to think about the B2B ... please hold

me too! me too! (or Gwen, rather) Gwen R. submitted by AnnKRussell for the Gap Casting Call vote for all of the BDW babies!

awww - I love that! congrats again!

congrats! do we get to see the entry? i'm curious!

as is donating points to people that ask for them. i don't think you'll get any. besides, it doesn't matter how many points you have since access to documents is based on post count.

I can't wait to hear who won!

is that the member "martin" on here? if so, have you tried sending them a PM on the forum? i see that they were on the forum today. Best Destination Wedding Forum ~ The Ultimate Destination Wedding Resource

Ooohh - not a lot of people are on during the day Sunday ... but for those of you that are, it's a great chance to get into this contact while you can!

She will probably realize that she would miss out on a lot and not want to do it if you explained all that. Quote: Originally Posted by Jessica I was going to say something similiar to estella. Let her know that you appreciate the offer, but want her to have the opportunity to just be the mother of the bride and sit back and relax and be able to enjoy the ceremony and reception. Let her know that you don't want her be a "worker" during your wedding. AND let her know that you want her to be in the pictures with you and that won't really work so well if she's the photographer!

She can't be carrying a camera and having the responsibility of that huge job. my thoughts exactly - she's the Mother of the Bride ... that's an important role in itself! if she's behind the camera, then she won't be in any of the photos ... i'm guessing she doesn't want that either.

Check it out. http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...-2010-a-50985/ nice, tammy! if i can come i will take advantage of this, for sure. i hope you don't end up working the whole time!

If I can make this, I might have you do some family shots ... it would be awesome to get some of Gwen, and us in Cabo!

i guess i wouldn't care at all - i never would have thought twice about it. but i never believe in that superstitious stuff anyway. and as for someone else trying it on ... who cares?! does that really take away any of the meaning and the value of it?

ahhhhh - Sea Salt, makes me miss home! LOVE that place!

This is just really based on post count - most of us are on here blabbling away all day, often about non-wedding related stuff. It wasn't anything bad ... just that you weren't very active on here!

get the entries in, ladies! i can't wait to see who wins ...

thanks for letting us know ... and thanks for using the search!

While some of you may disagree with where the drama is, I do agree that there is way too much drama lately. I mean, c'mon, someone stated their opinion (and one I agree with, for the record) and people start stomping their feet and pouting and whining. This is the reason I quit hosting; I got sick of the excuses and the drama. Just put on your big girl panties and do what you intended to do ... get healthier! That's what it's all about anyway, right?

Again, no drama necessary. If you've been accountable, then don't worry about it, keep doing your thing. No need to make this about you if it isn't about you!

I agree, Ashley. I mean, isn't that part of the reason why we're all in this predicament ... because we make excuses about why we can't exercise, why we can't eat better. We're too busy, not enough money, too stressed, etc. When in reality, we're just not doing what we should be doing and what will get the results! I mean, who cares if the scale is up or down or whatever, it's all about accountability!

Quote: Originally Posted by Ginalyn Girls, I have to say that I am quite upset with the amount of weigh ins that I got this week. Can you help me out with understanding why people are missing weigh ins? Is Wednesday not a good day? If so, then someone should have spoken up when the rules were drafted. Sorry but I had to rant for a minute. Congrats to Ashley for this week!!! Isn't it frustrating? I can totally relate. You volunteer your own time and energy to "hosting," sending out emails, recording weights, posting results, etc. and people can't be bothered to weigh in, or tell you that they'll be missing a week. I hear ya!

you're not the only guy, but definitely a minority ... welcome, and let us know how we can help!

your profile picture won't show up anywhere when you post. the siggy does (at the bottom) and the avatar does (to the left of a post). does that help?

i posted on facebook too ... i hope someone finds him!
