Hi all,

Thinking sunny thoughts...

omg sxcT  I did the exact same thing... but I threw about 8 pairs of shoes in a suitcase and it took up almost half!!!  What am I going to do!  As of now we have:

 

Carry-on roller w/ important wedding stuff / breakables

Checked bag 1 - OOT Bags & contents

Checked bag 2 - Programs and other wedding items

Checked bag 3 - will be clothes / shoes / etc

Checked bag 4 (duffle) - will be more clothes, toiletries, etc

 

I really don't want to check more than that... eek!

This picture is HILARIOUS sxcT!!! I cant believe you fit in there!

Hehe thanks!!  I was having some fun.  They are so big...almost too big.  But I think it'll be nice because I can pack everything in boxes to protect them and then put them in there since there is so much space.

hahha that pic is priceless! Taryn how are you feeling??!?!  We leave in 4 days (today doesn't count and neither does Tuesday)!!!!!

 

I can't wait.  And can't believe it's next week already!

[sxcT]

I know its crazy that we are just days away....hours actually LOL.  I'm feeling good about most things.  I have my final fitting and picking up my dress today!!  What an exciting feeling. 

 

We do have some drama with one of the groomsman.  We don't know if he is coming, he won't respond to David or the travel agent, he hasn't paid his final payment, etc.  What a d!ck$hit.  I am so pissed at him for doing this so close to our departure.  Thankfully the other groomsman has this guys' pants that we bought for all the guys and is bringing them with him.  We will get them altered down there and have the "runner up" groooman step in.  Sounds so bad I know.  But we have to do what we have to do.  So first is was bridesmaid drama and now its groomsman drama.  Geez when does it stop LOL.

 

The packing is going quite well.  I think everything fits into those duffle bags and all the precious glass stuff fits into one carry-on which is so nice.

 

Still have to get some last min things but nothing critical which is a relief.  Picking up a pocket-sized video camera tomorrow (he bought the turquoise one for me aww!)  My wknd should be pretty easy going (I hope)....massage, nails, tanning and one last BM meeting to give the girls the tank tops and the flip flops I made for them to wear on the plane.  

 

So how about you?  What is left for you to do?

Ohh I hope the final fitting goes well!  So exicting!!!! That's crazy about the groomsmen though.  What an ass!  Thankfully you have a back-up GM (we kind of have one too LOL) so you'll be fine!  I know what you mean though - it's always something.  We lost a few people earlier this week (ben's family friends) but their room is non-refundable so I mentioned it to my mom and now my step-brother and step-sister are coming!  Great news - but I did have to redo the seating arrangement and seating cards last night.  Oh well :-)

 

OMG what a good idea to have a small videocamera!!!  Hmm... I actually work at a video production company and they have some... I wonder if they'll notice it's missing? Hahha

 

Enjoy your massage and last days of pampering!!!  Only small things are left on my list too... get my e-ring cleaned, go tanning, get mani/pedi, go shopping for some books/magazines/snacks... and legal ceremony is Saturday!! 

 

 

 

[sxcT]

Yay your weekend sounds fun too.

 

We bought the Kodak Playsport.  Its WATERPROOF!!!  Can't wait to video tape us snorkeling and messing around in the pool.  I'm so excited.
