LOVE your centerpieces!!!!!! They look awesome! Makes me want to do some of my own...but I can't get into that! lol

My Opinion, Court sucks in every country!! lol, not a fan of it at all, mind you I haven't ever had to go!! and hopefully won't have to in the future!
I hope her mother definitely wises up and lets her go, this will be an amazing experience for her and she will resent her mother later for not letting her go, crossing my fingers and toes for you guys!! Good luck, and good job on the centerpieces!! They will look beautiful!

Shortnsweet.....I'm so glad that everything worked out with your dog....I was near tears reading that story. I have 2 of my own and would die if anything happened!

Oh Erin - I can't believe they're letting it go down to the wire like that....it sounds like the magistrate hit the ex with a little guilt about being resented - I really hope it will work out for you guys!

And the flowers look beautiful! I think I might do something like that for my AHR.

Erin,Your centerpieces are to die for, I will definitely be stealing your idea's for the AHR like Michele.

 

I am so sorry it has to be so late minute. I hope it works out for you guys and she'll be able to go. Like everyone said, the mother will be resented by the daughter... hopefully that'll change her mind. Keep us posted!! have my finger's crossed for the 3 of you.

 

Court sucks here too, sucks everyone!! hopefully you or anyone else wont have to deal with it again.

Wow!! Your centerpieces are beautiful!! Great idea...they will be perfect!!

Ladies, thanks for all of your kind and supportive words about my dog’s situation. It’s so nice to hear that others understand what I’m feeling.

 

 

Meghan,

My dog did not appear too traumatized after the attack. I think I was more afraid to go back outside than she was. I let the doggie daycare staff know she had been attacked, so I am sure they will call me if she displays any aggressive behavior. She will probably have forgotten all about the incident after her two-week stay at the doggie daycare. They are literally outside all day (or in the inside play area) with other dogs except for naptime and bedtime when they are put in cages.

 

 

Suzy,

They don’t have webcams at the doggie daycare, but they do take you tube videos of them occasionally. I’ll probably call them tomorrow to check up on my babies.

 

When I do finally have children, I know I will be super protective of them, seeing how I am with my dogs.

 

 

Tracy,

Glad to hear your BD session went well. I know you are so anxious to see the pictures!

 

I am with you… I would not believe the room issue was resolved until I had the revised invoice in my hands.

 

 

Erin,

I hope your future step-daughter’s mother comes around and realizes that she should let her daughter be involved in your wedding. The magistrate is right, her daughter could end up resenting her for it. My friend and her son’s father are constantly in court over visitation issues. His father is always dragging my friend to court to complain about his child support payments or he thinks my friend needs to always put her son on a plane or drive him from Florida to Virginia so that he can visit with his son. He never makes an effort to travel from Virginia to Florida to see his son. Anyway, long story short, her son has become really resentful of his father the older he gets because it’s becoming apparent to him that this back and forth to court is more about “getting back†at his mother than actually trying to spend time with him.

 

By the way, your centerpieces are gorgeous!

I don't think I've ever posted pictures of my dogs, have I? Since we're on topic why don't I lighten things up with a few:

Atlas as a puppy with his big sister:



The two of them this past summer (he's filled out a bit more since then)

Erin, I'm so sorry they weren't able to resolve this! I hope her mother comes around before the last minute- I can't understand why she would object to this. I agree with the magistrate- she's setting herself up for some resentment with this behavior, plus she's being really selfish. I love your centerpieces, though. They look really pretty- I really like the vases.

Tracy- I'm so glad to hear it went well! I bet you can't wait to see the pics now! I knew you'd do great!
