Maura

i just told people "it's immediate family only and a few of our best friends" - obviously this wont work in your case... grams is not going to be happy that she's family and that you may have invited friends over her. just out of curiosity, why isnt she invited? you cant squeeze her in? my own grandmother is mad at me for getting married, and is too sick to travel anyway. but if she had been supportive and wanted to come, we wouldve figured out a way to include her. we wouldnt pay for her trip or anything, but we would've cut someone else from the guest list in order for her to go - i shouldnt talk though, we sent out 300 invitations, and have 100 people showing up in mexico next week, so my wedding is nowhere near the "small and intimate" that i originally imagined.

rebecca - 1) thank you for emailing me those docs - i got swamped the day you sent them and yesterday and didnt get a chance to thank you 2) are you kidding about your TA? why the F would she put your nephews in your room with you?!?!??!?!??! this woman is gonna get it bad!!! she shoulda realized who she was dealing with!

happy birthday morgan!!!!!! have a wonderful day!

happy wedding day sweetie! i hope your day is beautiful - you deserve an amazing day!

I know this is TMI but I had to tell someone and it's sure not gonna be FI who just got back from being out of town. What do you guys think- too much fiber? what time did you eat the fiber, what time did you get the oil incident, and what was your meal previous to the fiber cereal?

tara, if you REALLY wanna experiment, go get some mickey d's or burger king and have that for dinner.... LOL, i guarantee you it will produce results

ok i just heard from yari! she is ok. she is heading home to see if their house is damaged at all, and she is going to go pick up angela from somewhere. she said she cant get thru on the phone to brian because the phone lines are still down (at least for her). she said she would check in with me after she's been home to let me know everything there is ok.

Then the mods prob thought "what the heck is she doing!" OK... sorry guys! Will repost tonight and NOT delete the pics! (are pictures is photobucket private, or can any joe blow see them?) LOLOLOL LOL holly, oops.... yes if you delete them from photobucket, they will disappear from here. you can set your privacy settings in photobucket i believe - but i think somebody would have to know your username on there to be able to access your gallery randomly or you would have to have named your photos (i.e. holly&brad.jpg rather than CIMG23805, KWIM?) in order for someone to be able to search for them.

hmmm strange. maybe it was accidentally deleted during housecleaning. i havent been around much today, but the mods will look into it. give us a couple hours and one of us will PM you and let you know it's ok to repost the thread, ok?

holly you are not crazy, i remember seeing your thread early this morning. let me do some searching and see if it was moved by one of the mods.

jamy works overnight, so she may have been sleeping

There's way too much info on it, but you can clean it up and do with it what you want. I'm carrying my flowers on - it's just the one bouquet. Chris' bout and my hair flowers will go in my luggage. I've already enlisted my niece and nephews to do the assembly line for the bags when we arrive. I'll get to spend time with them and will buy them off with something fun. I finished my day of timelines for the girlfriends. Let me know if you want it, and I'll send it your way. maybe its not a bad idea to put my bouquet inside my garment bag with my dress? LOL just wrap it in tissue paper and tuck it in the middle of my skirt at the bottom of the bag. can you email me your packing list and your day-of timeline? that would be so awesome

eeeeeeeeeeee marthas back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i am going to be stalking for pics haha

what great news kristy! we'll continue with the prayers for a speedy recovery

our priest in chicago sent the paperwork to the priest in Louisiana (who is a family member that we are flying to MX to marry us), and the priest in Louisiana sent the paperwork through the chancery to MX

MIL wants carribean, DH wants mexican riviera because it stops in cabo. then we have to go to mexico city for DH's goddaughter's christening in early Jan... then we have to make some trips within the US to visit fam/friends in AZ, Miami, etc a friend of ours who lives in france is supposedly proposing to his longtime girlfriend in october this year... they plan to eventually marry in france... we are hoping they get married in 2009 so we can take a vacation

#4 or some jewelry - you can never go wrong with nice jewelry. all the rest of your suggestions seem too impersonal to me.

ok becks, give me your list of whats left and then ill type up mine my boss keeps asking me "are you ready?" - i am gonna punch his lights out if he asks me one more time. maybe if he didnt give me so much work to do the week before i leave, i WOULD be ready!

eeeeeeeeee rebecca!!!!!! 12 days!!!!!! i forget, are you & chris leaving on wednesday the 6th too?

no it has nothing to do with you being on a mac. the layout is different than it used to be. click MY ALBUMS and you should be taken to your page, and then you can upload from there

yay! katrina, you were beautiful! the resort photog did a really good job. some of your pics look like something from a dream sequence or a brochure or something!
