I started a couple of weeks ago! with the holidays and everything coming up I dont want to get lost in that!

for some reason I go into winning streaks and then major losing streaks! (even though I know it is a completley random drawing) You have to have the feeling on it I think...the feeling that you are going to win!!!!!!!!! When I first started playing I too kept losing all my points but now I feel like I have a pretty good base built up! Just keep at it!

Oh he is so cute! So will his eye be ok?

Oh I am so sorry you have to be going through this. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you the entire way!

Be sure to use this mixture immediately after it is created, as it is unstable. Rinse with tap water afterward, and repeat if necessary. yep that is the combo! peroxide, dish soap and baking soda...worked pretty well on the dog, he just has a slight smell to him today. but the house still does not smell very good because we made the mistake of letting him back in BEFORE we realized he was skunky!

It is a good thing my dog is so cute! Otherwise my FI and I might have threw him out on the street last night to find a new home! (well ok we wouldn't ever do that! but the thought did cross our minds last night!) So my dog Milo(our big great dane/lab mix) gets up at 3 in the morning last night needing to go outside to the bathroom. Fine, no big deal. well it had been raining and earlier in the week he had surgery on his foot so he is in a cast (that foot thing is a whole other story and he fine and recovering!). So because we can't get the cast wet, I wrap a plastic bag around his paw and send him out. Two seconds later he bolts across our yard (he shouldn't even be running because of his foot surgery). So I start yelling at him and then yell for my FI to come help me get him back inside. Finally Milo comes back and he smells like a SKUNK! Yep that is right he chased a skunk down at 3 in the morning with a bum foot in the rain We were not happy to say the least! well this is the second time he has tried to chase this skunk down so we knew what to do. So i got our skunk mixture removal stuff ready and we SPONGED bathed him down because we couldn't get his foot totally wet. so after about an hour and a half of bathing him and cleaning up the mess we finally went back to bed at about 4:30. This morning our house has a nice skunk odor to it and so does the dog! AAAAAAGGGGGHHHH! Sorry I just had to vent about that little adventure

I think before the holidays would be more logical because then our guests won't spend all their money on presents! They can just have one big present and that will be our wedding! Now I'm sounding selfish, I know..... I am attempting to make my own pocketfold invites. it has been a fun little project so far...I will post pics when i have them all ready to go! Hoping to have them done by the middle of Oct to send out in Nov.!

Hooray! a place for April brides! Ok, after reading the thread I feel much better...so far I have - booked location - booked rooms and have group rates in place - booked our airfare -ordered my dress -sent out STD's -created website -started to purchase some random things like OOT bags, some fun beach stuff for the kids, etc. my current project is working on my invites! those should be done in the next couple of weeks. when are you all planning on sending them out?

HOW CUTE! Congrats on the new baby!!!!!!

ok I thought I had more pictures saved of straight hair wedding styles but I just can't find them on my computer at the moment. I did though come across pics of Ashlee Simpson at her wedding...look at her straight hair! Wedding Obsession

So I didn't want to say anything to "jinx" it...but now that things are moving along nicely I will tell you all how excited I am to say that we are buying a house!!!!!! we close in just over two weeks! I will be leaving for a work trip to London the day we close so my FI has said that while I am gone for a week he will do all of the moving and then to be fair...I can unpack it all when I get back home! I am so glad that we will finally have our own "home" and that our doggies will have their own yard!

OMG! I am sad I missed this thread today! Work was insane today...I would have had way more fun talking you guys! Anyway...this tread totally made me laugh! you girls are crazy!
