Great stuff kelly. Thanks for sharing.

awesome job.

I've been going back and forth with this too. fi really doesn't want one, but i think i kinda do. I hate pics of myself but i'm hoping that the wedding pics i would actually like. Plus my grandparents just canceled their trip yesterday so i'm sure they would like to see the video and none of my aunts or cousins are coming and i know they would like to see it too. Guess i'll have to bring this back up to fi again.

I would definately be in the middle of that highway with a glass of milk!

that such a cute idea, are you planning on telling everyone how you've been doing that since you were little. i think that's sweet. I would either do them as place settings like someone mentioned or put the sand in them yourself and stick them in oot bags. I really like the idea someone mentioned about filling them up together at your wedding. Is your ceremony or reception on the beach?

I always check weather.com before i go away and everytime i've been to Mexico (3 times) and Jamaica, it was wrong. If it did rain when i was there, it would be 10 minutes and than clear up. I'm sure that's all it will be, a little sprinkle and than clear right up.

thanks. i checked out paperpresentation.com and decided just to get mini pocket folders. i also ordered envelopes that match the folders in aquamarine and round stickers. i ended up spending as much on all of that, as i would of on the plastic folders I wanted. So it might not be exactly what i wanted but i think it'll be really cute anyway plus i saved some money.

i freeze peanut butter in my dogs kongs so it takes them longer to get out than if it was unfrozen. Treats were really good too. I also get the bones with the flavored centers, my dogs will sit there for almost 2 hrs with one of them.

Welcome to the forum Danielle. Law school must be tough. There are a ton of girls on here to help you with your planning. goodluck

when my hyper dog got fixed i had to crate him to keep him from running around the room and jumping on and off the couch. Does she have a kong?

the first dress is very Marilyn Monroe like but with a modern twist. the 2nd dress is just adorable and fun. Great choices. You girls are picking out the cutest shower dresses, my shower is being kept a secret so i can't do that. or i'll just have to buy a bunch of cute dresses to wear from Sept to october. hehe

party city - thanks for the tip, i would never of thought to check there.

You meant a lot of girls. Welcome back can't wait to hear about your wedding.

there's a couple of michaels near me so i'll try a different one this time and theirs a joanns near my mom maybe i'll have her stop in. thanks for the info.

ooh i like the coco loco, very cute.

steph -i saw the oot bags you got from target on another thread, i love those bags. I think they are even nicer than the ones you were going to get for $4.95. I'm a sucker for a straw beach bag. your guests will love those bags and use them again. I wish i would of seen these bags a month ago! well girls i managed to buy a couple of things this weekend. i got my bm shoes. they're just flip flops from kohls. i bought the ribbon i'm going to use for the pashminas. And since the folders i wanted for my invitations got messed up, i found a replacement and ordered them along with matching envelopes. three day weekend, so hopefully i can get a lot done this weekend. I cannot find raffia ribbon at any store near me, has anyone see it?

HOT on my list are for the this month are MY DRESS the PHOTOGRAPHER & THE INVITATIONS....... that's not too bad. at the beginning of this month i pretty much had the same stuff done, except i had my dress and i bought stuff for oot bags (which you could really skip doing). But i've made myself get something done every weekend. you should just make a list and stick to it. i have a couple lists from girls on here that are pretty good if you want me to send them to you just pm me. Goodluck with your dress shopping.

i did okay this weekend. i got a little bit of exercise by taking the dogs for a long walk. We went to olive garden on Saturday and i actually ordered a lite meal and only ate half of it. But sunday i had a piece of roastbeef stromboli. i got really sick after i ate it though. i'm hoping that i at least lose a pound this week. fi works late this week, so he wont' be home when i get home from work. So i can go home and workout without having to worry about dinner for a couple of hrs.

those bags are really nice. if would use that bag over and over too. and the straw is a nice quality, they look sturdy. great find.

2 weeks!

i never tried it with milk. i ran out of apple juice today, so maybe tomorrow i'll try it with milk.
