Hi ladies! Merry (belated) Christmas! I hope everyone had a good one

 

My list is DONE! All I have to do is pack (which I want to do now LOL), pick up my dress, do legal day, and LEAVE!

 

FI still has things to do but I basically gave up on him and if he is shirtless, barefoot, and is wearing pants that are too big, its his problem, there will just be more pics of me muahaha

Well ladies I am off in 12 hours!! I didn't get everything done I wanted to, but that's OK. I would love to stuff the OOT bags with everything, but I have no idea how it would all get down there. Our airline (Skyservice) allows for one carry on at 15lbs,(Plus a wedding dress) and two bags at 44lbs. Sounds like a lot, but with us travelling with my 1 year old and three year old it is amazing how much stuff we have packed. I have 15 OOT bags in one giant luggage with the other five spread out into the others. I am taking a total of 8 pieces of luggage!! I can't even imagine what I am forgetting.

Thank you everyone for all the help adn tips asnd support and...just an ear to listen to. I am not sure how I cold have done it without you.

 

I am a pretty laid back bride to be, I have no idea what my hair is going to look like, I have no idea of the songs being played during the ceremony, I am not done my vows, I have no idea what two of my BM's are wearing....I assume it will all come together.

 

Bye guys and I will give a full pic-full account when I get back!!

oh yeah -

My sister arrived last week (she is doing 2 weeks) and told me U2 is playing another resort (not sure which) on New Year's eve!! Cool huuh.

I think its great that you are just going with the flow, sometimes its the best way!! I hope you have an amazing time, all the best!!

I hear ya!! But what will we talk about!?? How depressed we all are because we don't have a wedding to plan anymore & we don't have anything to do with our time!! LOL
On this note - I just offered to plan my friends wedding!! She just got engaged Christmas & is planning on a DW! I told her I'll be her wedding planner!! hahaha
