Stacey your pics are so beautiful! I love the guests standing in the heart shape with you and your DH in the middle! So sweet!

I believe I think about the wedding and trip every second i'm awake! I wish I could let it go a bit and get on with things but I can't. It's just too exciting!

Hopefully the last minute stuff will help pass the time!

Yaaayyy it's your day!! I hope it's a beautiful love filled day! Congrats!

This sounds so tastey! Thanks for sharing!

They turned out so great! What a fun invitation to get in the mail!

I'm with you both and going crazy too! I count weeks because it sounds sooner . Our three month mark was yesterday....oh yeah! With the holidays time will go by quickly between now and January. I have a feeling January will be a long slow month!

Does that mean the Supreme Court has final say?

I don't think you can go wrong with giving them extra time! I would send them ASAP.

You have every right to be upset with your sister and mom! You didn't ask for much from your sister and she failed at every turn. Plus, your mom is being so unfair and taking sides without even talking to you first. I would be done with your sister as MOH now versus dealing with her drama throughout the planning process and wedding. I'm sorry you are dealing with this! No matter how she spins it, it's undeserved.

I had hope human beings were better than that and would make the right decision. So incredibly wrong, disappointing, discriminatory, everything our country shouldn't be.

Did you all hear that Brooke Smith's character (Erica Hahn) is being written off the show ASAP? Her last episode is this Thursday! That's as out of left field as the hook up with Callie! I guess Brooke is sad because her character isn't even getting a proper write off. The show's creator said it's because Callie's character can't go in a direction they want her to with Erica still around.

I think this is a new beginning for all of us. I love what you said about it being a new beginning for all of us! It truly feels that way!

Best wishes to you and your family today Karma!

I'm so proud of our country!!!!

Oh my goodness! I just checked out the Eric pics and that's about all I can say. That bunny ranch girl's tattoo is priceless!

A few decades back Obama wouldn't have been able to sit next to Biden in a restaurant, let alone run alongside him as candidate for President of the United States. The very possibility is huge in terms of where we are as a nation. McCain is a likeable guy and I don't outright hate him like some people I know, I just disagree with almost everything he stands for so I could never vote that way. Be proud of whomever you support. This has been a civil thread so we can leave the fear of being attacked for our views out of it...sometimes just suggesting it may happen can start it up I had the biggest smile when I got to circle in the Obama/Biden bubble!!!

I enjoy hearing everyone's opinions and appreciate that it's being kept positive!

I totally forgot to check the Stern website yesterday! I want to see the Eric pics! My Robin pet peeve is she always says "I was going to say...." and then makes her point. She totally was not "going to say" but did so because someone else brought it up! She is wrong a lot. I'm not a Robin hater but she does bug me sometimes.

They had enough to write like 10 pages about how ridiculous he is. I honestly was shaking with fear when I put the magazine down...and that's why I'm so nervous for the results tonight! Dang! It's blocked at work. I will have to read it when I get home tonight.

My cousin is a die hard republican. He said if Obama wins there will be riots in the streets and he's truly afraid. The way he spews the bs he hears on the radio drives me crazy! He was telling me something about Obama only having 171 days of experience. Just repeating what he hears without knowing the facts. My other cousin on the other hand is also a republican and we can have good discussions about our different views. I support Obama's plan for our healthcare system (hoping for universal in the near future). I'm also very opposed to No Child Left Behind and feel Obama will help with that mess. I'm also supporting someone who will have an adiminstration that won't practice fear based leadership.

Where did you get your pashminas?

I am an Obama supporter and would also like to ditto Alyssa's words!

I was trying to decide how to respond and really wanted to say something. I believe someday same sex marriage will be widely accepted.

Yay Yari! I agree with you 100%. The judging bothers me the most.
