LCBride2007

It was a lot of work, but in the end, I am glad I did it - it added that additional personal touch!

great review! i remember it so well ... but it seems so long ago!

CARROT BE DAMNED! It's your birthday!!! I hope you had a great day, Jilly ... sorry I'm so late to this!

heck, I'd take HALF of her talent!

How did everyone do this weekend?

I know that sometimes vendors come and go in a smaller boat (not sure what it's called, maybe water taxi is a good word). I don't know if they'll let your guy come over it in though - but Nicole would be able to tell you that. But like, that's how my hair stylist got over - she came over around 2pm I think on a boat like that.

those are so cute! you did a fabulous job, Stephanie!

Oh Mo, that's good - it sounds like you could use him by your side right now. You're not crazy at all! We're all out here for you as well. Hang in there ...

I think I could do either night, surprisingly. There's an off chance I'll go to Chicago that weekend of the 18th, but not likely.

Ok, the MN gals aren't very good at this! Honestly, if left up to me, it won't happen ... I am the WORST person ever to plan anything. Not only do I strongly dislike organizing things, but I'm terrible at it, and it just won't get done! But problem is - I would love to get together with everyone! What a dilema.

Not cool. Ok, let's even go so far as to pretend that you weren't pregnant and you did make the whole thing up (yeah right). I mean, the bleeding and pain you're experiencing isn't normal, and should be looked into - especially if it isn't related to a pregnancy, as he says, ya know? Ok, so if you aren't/weren't pregnant, what the F____ is going on then? Now, we all are pretty sure you were prego - I woman knows her own body unlike even the best of doctors. This doctor certainly didn't treat you with much respect or sensitivity! I'm glad you're looking into a new doctor - maybe they can help you find some more answers.

I can't believe you're married, Rachel! I feel like the sophomore class just graduated ... now on to the freshmen (Yari, etc.). I am so excited to see your pics and your review ... I can't wait!

of course, you're more than welcome! it really does help to have all of the support on here, and i know i will be using it when i am ready to lose weight!

We were engaged in early Oct. 2006 and got married June 8th 2007, so just over 6 months. and if you throw in the holidays, and the fact that we were both working 70-80 hours, on the road, and we didn't even decideon a location until sometime in Nov ... I think you'll be fine! does that help? lol

I'm so sorry, Mo. I really am. As much as we all know that this kind of thing happens so often, it doesn't make it easier when it happens to someone we "know." I'm so sorry it happened to you. I know there are many others that this has happened to on this forum, and they may choose to share their experiences with you, I'm not sure. But you're not alone. Please let us know what the doctor has to say! And know that we're here for you if you ever want to chat, vent, or just cry. Big hugs!

Victoria's Secret - Colin Stuart White Wedge Sandles (size 7.5): I forgot I had bought these before my wedding, and just found them in the bag while cleaning. They are brand new, never worn - not even tried on! I think they arrived late, so I bought another pair before the wedding. This isn't the exact same shoe, but really close - the only different appears to be that the strap on mine is clear, not metallic or silver. I think I paid like $15-20 for them - so I'd take $10, OBO, plus shipping. I can take actual pictures if you're interested! Orchid Sprays: I have 12 sprays, with 7 blooms on each stem, plus buds. I bought them for $3.99/spray but I will sell for $2/spray ($24 for all 12) OBO, plus shipping. I was going to use these to put on the fans, but I just never got around to finishing that project. But I did cut one of the flowers off to see how it would look – so one of the sprays has 6 (I still have the loose flower).

Those packages didn't exist when I (or many of us) were married. I did the Deluxe, which was kind of the "top" package that included most everything.

oh wow would i be pissed. he deserves everything he's got coming!

I need to find that MN Get-Together thread .. I think it got lost again!

at that point i might be ready to go ... an early anniversary trip!

oh yikes! i'm glad he's ok, but he sure owes you a little lovin' when he gets home! it sounds like he feels awful. maybe that's punishment enough! lol

even better! maybe Kelley can babysit the baby, and Nicole can babysit us! lol and after not drinking for this long, i bet 1 drink would knock me on my patootie!

awww - Nicole, your carrot prize is your first gift! lol poor, lonely carrot!

I've already told Kelley that she's going to babysit while Paul and I sip fun drinks by the water. I didn't even get to drink last time (the only time!) I was at LC ... so sad!

I think I remember you talking about those fireflies! lol Oh, we DEFINITELY plan on going. We can't go for our 1 year anniversary, but maybe 2 years. Or 1 and a half? lol
