  1. I think it's a thin kind of glossy brochure type paper. Sort of like a magazine page. My sample folder is with a coworker so I can't look at an actual example. I'll post pictures of the actual thing when they come in.
  2. You pictures were amazing! You have such a great smile.
  3. You had a chair in your wedding colors. How'd you get that past customs.
  4. It's so funny how angry we get when we can't see pictures!

If you can't get the scars better by your wedding, I can photoshop them out of a few of your favorite pictures. It's not a hard fix.

I got an email from VS today with a picture of this dress. Make sure to get the free shipping & returns deal & it should be easy for the BMs to try it on.

What a perv...but funny enough that I had to post! Restless Third Leg Syndrome. Poor guy, heard that it is uncurable. This may have been the most fun day I have ever had on the forum. I am laughing so hard! I read RTLS over & over trying to figure out what you meant. I gave up & finished the sentence & now I know what that extra T is for. Have you seen the side effects for RLS medicine? Increased gambling & sexual addiction. I can't imagine what RTLS pills would do.

I can be Captain Morgan with a peg leg! Arrr, mateys.
  9. Quote: Originally Posted by CarrieRN I admit, I did giggle at this thread title! I have one leg shorter. Mostly because of not being aligned. I do have mild scoliosis. Whenever I used to play pool or when I attempt darts (only play well when drinking a lot), I blame any aim issues on my short leg. Also, very random, my friend gave me an Elmo doll that spells his name...E..L..M..O. And then he says, Elmo's glad he has a short name. however, my FI and I had been out drinking and it sounded like, "Elmo's glad he has a short leg! (as in 3rd leg?)" We laughed until we were crying. Like, I said, random! So, "short leg" makes me giggle! I love that you blame it on your short leg. I think almost everyone has a little case of restless leg syndrome sometimes. I get it if I've stayed up too late or if I sit too long. I didn't know it was a syndrome until I saw a commercial. So I like to blame stuff on my RLS. If mike is pestering me I'll yell, "you are activating my RLS!" So since I've been thinking more about my short leg lately I will tell him not to activate the RLS in my short leg. There is an Elmo that sings twist & shout and he says something like "cut the foot off elmo." It was something an angry employee snuck in. Poor elmo with a short leg & no feet.

I think the concern is insects getting into a new ecosystem. I'll google it tomorrow if no one else has given an answer by then. I took a bunch of food with me to mexico before, but maybe i just got lucky.

  12. Quote: Originally Posted by Stormsong will do. Let me go through them, and I will send them to you via email. (Unless you prefer on here. Let me know what would be easier.) email is probably easier. thanks!
  13. Quote: Originally Posted by Stormsong gosh, sorry Morgan. I got nothing.....i have some beautiful beach pictures from Canada....but not Cuba! I'd get you one when I come back, but, i have a feeling that will be TOO late by then! Why do you need a cuba beach? Your getting married in Mexico! You could use a mexico beach. Project for someone else. I think you already busted me on that one though. JulieG sent me some beautiful pictures of Cuba beaches so I'm all set.
  14. Quote: Originally Posted by BillysBride As usual Morgan, your info helps me tremendously. The $10 per bag, is that from the resort or where are you getting them? From the hotel. Elena said a bag is enough for 10 people so I'll need 2-3 bags.
  15. Quote: Originally Posted by Stormsong Advil can be called "head candy!" I actually PLAYED Montezumas revenge! lol. Great idea! Head Candy- I like that. Mike played motezuma's revenge, too. I sent you some points so you can download more stuff. Don't worry, I'll probably still be here after my wedding making stuff. After my wedding it will probably be mostly projects with my pictures.
  16. Quote: Originally Posted by Stormsong Morgan, you are TOO crazy! Your not busy enough with your OWN wedding! lol. I swear....you should be a wedding consultant! I think its meant to be! I have lots of beach type pictures, if you need them. Let me know. Lots of waves and such. Scenary, trees, things like that. (Fi is big into photography.) I got some great Cuba pics from Julie. If you don't mind sending me your pictures that would be great. As long as you don't mind them being used for projects. I'll add them to my scenery folder for projects. Thanks!

Sandals Negril is where we are honeymooning, and we are booked in the Lazy River Suites, so I'd love to see what it's going to be like! Thanks for the info! I hope you get the same butler. He was awesome.

If you want more information (for free) of course he can let you know what they can do to help your situation. All through my childhood I was so so so sick always constantly. I have seen every kind of doctor there is. I was on so many pills its still causing problems now. Since being with my DH and him adjusting me I haven't been sick once. B/C my spine is misaligned it messes up my nervous system which gives me symptoms of being sick. All the doctors did was give me pills to stop they symptoms. Such as saying I had a cold when I didn't. I love my Chiro!!! I love holistic approaches to medicine. I'd much rather get treated to find the problem then take pills to treat symptoms. Now this is no way says never go to a doctor. Sometimes medicine is the right way and you definitely should see a MD. But Chiro's get such a bad rap sometimes and they can help so much!!! I for one LOOOOVE MINE *wink* I totally agree with an ostiopathic approach to treating illness. So many problems can be addressed through exercise, nutrition, or just eliminating a bad behaviour. I always try to fix the problem instead of treating it. I wanted to find the cause of my hip pain, not take anti inflamatories to relieve the pain. I also wanted to fix it to keep it from becoming a big problem. I prefer preventative health, not treatments. But, I also know sometimes medicine is necessary. My goal is just to take as little as possible while still maintaining my health. I feel pretty confident that these suggestions will help me a lot. The thing she said about my IT band was right on. It's the cause of so much pain. Now I know how to stretch is right. Everytime it hurt, I was making it worse with the wrong stretch. If your husband has any advice for me I'd love to hear it. I'll do all my rehab stuff & update y'all on how it's working.

Sorry I know too much about playboy, quite a few of my sorority sisters used to go all the time and one is on the show regularly. I think I heard the divorce was finalize recently too. Do you know why he stayed married so long? Who is your sororitiy sister who is on the show?
  21. Your to do list is just about the same as mind. I don't know much about the actual wedding day. I think my WC will contact me 3 weeks before. I've emailed her little questions every so often, but mostly I haven't talked to her about the ceremony. Everything I know about it I learned from brides who were married there before. I think you are right on track. Quote: Originally Posted by Cole5worm Alright Ladies you are all freaking me out!!! I have a little under 5 months until I become Mrs. Harlin and I do not have half of what you have done!! I don't even know my wedding plans. My WC told me that we don't start doing that stuff until like 1 or 2 months until the wedding. I am freaking out now! Things that i have done. Invites--most done.. need a few more address and need to put sticker on back. Bought--dress, veil, headpiece bought trip Things to do make OTT bags send invites out Alterations Guys cloths my shoes Boys shoes figure out who is even comeing.. this list could go on and on!! Do you think i should contact my WC and see if i should be doing anything??/ thanks girls
  22. My appointment was brief because they don't do full PT at student health. But, hey it was free & may be all I need. Here is what I learned: My legs are the same length, but one appears shorter because my hips are out of alignment. From hip to ankle the length is the same, but from belly button to ankle it's different. So a lift in the shoe won't help. I need to correct the alignment. the pain in my hip is probably a bursitis (sp?). Like when you aggrivate your shoulder. I need to let it rest & ice it. I need to stengthen my hips & losen up my tight IT band (the muscle that runs from the hip to the knee.) I have had problems with a tight IT band before. The tops of my knees hurt when i did aerobics. The way my instructor told me to stretch is was wrong & I was actually making it tighter. I'm going to work on my core more. I do pilates, but I'm going to start doing some yoga too. I need to lay off the pilates moves that could aggrivate my hip for a while so I'll do more core instead. I'm going to do my exercises for my hip & stretch my IT band often. I'm also going to shift myself to stand up straight when I can think about it. Oh & no more slouching. I'm also getting good arch supports for my shoes. My arch looks high, but I feel flat footed & have to wear really comfortable shoes. She said my arch goes away when I stand. It was a lot of fun learning so much about myself in a quick appoitment. I now understand why I have certain pain & know some things I can do to prevent it. I'm going back later for my back. It seems like the hip thing is more about my back than legs.
  23. I've heard mixed info about the EDR beach. I just read something the other day about how the beach is awesome because of what makes other people think it's bad. Something about being able to snorkel around the whales. I'll see if I can find the website again. I also want to go to a rocky beach. I've been on so many sandy beaches. Someone just posted pictures after returning from EDR that were amazing. I think you can show your FMIL stuff that will change her mind.
  24. I'm about to hobble on over to my physical therapy appointment. I'm so excited to know what's wrong with me. I'll let y'all know what happens.
