My FI is the exact same way, so I'm no help, but wanted you to know that I understand! I used to be a total clean freak, but realized that it would break us up if I continued to be so crazy about it when he is such a slob. I still clean, but I've learned to overlook a lot of things like dishes in the sink for a night or laundry not put away for a few days. Our house is getting appraised tomorrow because we're selling it. I have no time to clean it after work because I have a rehearsal for a wedding I'm in this weekend. I swear, I will flip if the house is not somewhat straightened up when I get home tonight!

You know I thought about you all day and I think we had a moment in the morning while I was drinking my coffee. I am not sure if you kept Ava from sleeping on the 1 year anniversary of the night you died, but it was kinda crazy that she kept waking up crying and saying "its okay mommy" so that my sister had to bring her into bed with her. It was a good place for Ava to be though, with my sister. I hope you know how much we all love and miss you. None of us can beleive its been a year, I swear it was just last week we were dancing at your wedding. I will keep those fond memories of you with me always and will have lots of great stories to tell your daughters one day. Julie, Yesterday must have been so hard. I'm glad you were able to be with your sister all day. You and your family are in my thoughts.

I am so thrilled, relieved, happy, shocked, emotional! I am so lucky to have you in my life, and so thrilled you are going to see me get married. You are so courageous! I love you! I know one of these days the cancer will win, but until then, I am going to continue cherishing our time together and make it all worthwhile. By the way, what are we going to call our new company?! I'm so excited to work with you! Dear Doctors: I don't know what my family did to deserve such wonderful professionals, but thank you for treating my father like you would a family member, and for caring so much about us, his life, his happiness and quality of life. Your care is beyond anything we could have ever imagined. Dear Self: Awesome workout! You need to remember this feeling every day, and way to go running for 10 minutes. Doing 2 minute intervals has really increased your stamina. Nice work, don't forget you have a dress fitting in 21 days. Prove it to that bridal consultant that you really did need the smaller size! That is such great news! I'm so happy for you and your family!

Quote: Originally Posted by Heidi FYI, for anyone like me who is fine with the standard cake, here's a pic! Thanks, Heidi! I'm not too concerned with the cake. Any time I go to a wedding, I know I rarely eat cake. I'm going to go with whatever they offer when I get there.

Heidi, That is great, I'm definitely going to have to steal that from you (Hope you don't mind...)!!! How was your massage today?

Beautiful pics! Congrats on your recent wedding!!!

I'm definitely not one to be the center of attention but on my wedding day that will be the exception However I think wide pink sashes would look good! This is exactly what I was thinking! If the sashes are wide enough, that would look great.

to the forum! Happy planning!!!

to the forum! I'm not familiar with your location, but wanted to say hi. Happy planning!!!

I like the second one best!

That would be so great if they moved to Wildwood full-time. I go there for Irish Weekend every year and it's soooo fun!

Yay! How fun! Can't wait to see the pics!!!!!!!!!

to the forum, Tami!!! Happy planning!

It's beautiful! I love it and I agree with you...no bows!
