GOOD MORNING LADIES!!! Rise and Shine it's Friday!!!! Hey Timberly, by the way babes I think you and I are the only mommies on this thread... I have been reading back over our posts here trying to find the website for the pashminas... I seen you mentioned you had a little girl... Wonderful.. Is she a little princess like mommy? Ok so the pashminas how can I order these I read something about 10 for $27 So I have to buy sets of 10, is that how it works? I need 15 but for that price I would glady buy 2 sets of 10. I found the colour I just love (001-25 baby blue). The selection was amazing, so many to choose from. I love the flip flop key chains and i would probably get 50 of those for my AHR gifts. Let me know how the batches work for the pashminas and what I owe you. You're a doll

Totally amazing.... thank you for sharing...Just had to share, right? hehehe

Shells Shake what ya momma gave you and have fun baby... Teneil.... I won the speaker and dj issue with the Tulum, I am bringing my own ipod and speakers.. PM is you want the details and email to support you case. damn I need more sleep.... Ok maybe more wine lol.....

Oh my god we have two newbies joining us... Welcome ladies.... bye the way it is 1.20am eastern standard time... I am awake again!!! damn... oppps sorry Welcome ladies and we're glad you could join us.. Ah where the hell have you gals been,, you've missed out on a ton. No Seriously Welcome and we are the koolest group of ladies and congrats. We had a guy in our group and he disappeared... there was something in the new the other day about a guy screaming to police the girls online made me do it.hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...no couldn't be?

OH MY GOD SHELLS You crack me up... have fun sweetie... dance like no one is looking!!!

I am so addicted that my FI will ask me about what is going on our the website and I talk about people like their my best friends. He gave me the eyebrow a couple of days ago when I mentioned something or someone from this site. I told him not to worry we don't have an extra person at the dinner table for xmas yet. I just love chit chatting about our plans and progress for each and every detail of our weddings. Oh an seeing reviews from brides that return married and happy, makes my dream day seem a little more real. Plus no other human being can understand the emotion and passion we have right now as brides of a destination wedding, everything is left in the hands of the unknown. Having this site and the ability to communicate with other people feeling the same intense emotions is amazing. I think we keep each other sane...Oh and keeps us from driving everyone around us in our real worlds crazy. Have a great day ladies..We're another day closer to our "day".

acapella - Joyful

Ok I was holding back the tears with you.. I only had time to watch the first video, I have to head out to work... Congrats you looked so happy and beautiful

It's 1am, I am awake again... I hate these stressful times. I am really looking to have everything done for the wedding before xmas. I really want some kick back and relax time. Maybe then I'll be able to sleep... sigh!!!

I do have a 20 year old son that will be there, however I have been married before and walked down the aisle and given away so to speak. I feel thats re-gifting or something just not right about it. Our idea is FI will stand at the Gazebo/Alter and when I arrive the music will start and he will walk down the aisle to me, take my arm and walk together. My thoughts are he asked me to go down this road with him and he should be the one to walk with me to begin this journey. maybe corny too but i am very happy with our plan.... Good luck... it's doesn't matter how you get there as long a you do. Oh and say "I do" hehehehe

hahahahaha I am a freak thats why....

Quote: Originally Posted by vdaybride LOL at least I am not the only one heee heee Nope you have company... they need instant messaging on here lol... so which one of my lovelies can get back to that store the quickest and get me Pashminas and Flip Flop key chains? I leave for Mexico Jan 27th so I would need them rather soon. Shipping from the states for me is usually about a week to two weeks.. depends on how busy customs is. PS my actual wedding date has been set for jan 15th shhhhhhhhhhh. It's a secret

Timberly-- I am trying to rework my schedule right now for over those days but we will see what kind of craziness we can come up with! Ok the three of us are online at 1.30... oh we're sick and twisted.. lol

Quote: Originally Posted by vdaybride Ok, look at their website and choose your colors, write down the color codes and get it to either Brooke or myself. Also, which kind of key chains and how many? They have other destination key chains also. I remember seeing Puerto Rico, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Jamaica and someplace else, I can't think of right now. I plan on going down there again over the break from work I have (Dec. 23-Jan. 3) possible a weekend before that. Brooke are you down? I want to be done with all of my shopping and planning by Jan. 1. I want to relax and enjoy the final weeks before the wedding with no "to do" lists. I am sooo pumped just a little over 2 months to go Wooot wooot! Ok i am not the only wack job on line at 1.30 in the morning!!!! I will check the site tomorrow morning and do a head count for the Pashminas, I like the Mexico flip flops... damn their cute... So you know how to invoice me by paypal it is very easy.

My personal experience with them is, their hot uncomfortable and a pain in the butt. I used them when I was growing my hair out. I was able to get a great deal on them because i knew a lady that made them. Her quality was amazing, they just made me crazy.

Ok Brooke and Timblery I am sold on the Pashminas, I love the blue that Brooke has and I want some of the Key Chains. Please let me know if we can do this by Paypal and how much. God I lov you gals... I am so addicted to this site..... It's 1am and I can not sleep, so I am shopping online with the Feb. gals.... Oh Yeah... Where's Erica.... let's arrange the search party

Oh hun my heart is just breaking for you... You know from expereince that the care in the hospitals in these country's are not near on parr with ours.

Very nice when it is open, it has a subtle design on it that makes it look much more expensive that what it really is. They have amazing colors, blues, greens, yellows shades of red, orange, any pretty color that you can imagine! I am considering baby blue... did they have that colour... your colour is just out of this world. You gals looked like you have a blast.... I am looking forward to meeting you ladies after our wedding... Vegas sounds great
