I believe we decided on a destination wedding in October and booked the resort/date early November.  Went extremely slow until about April.  Now I can't even believe it's May!!!  It's going to be here before I know it!  My shower was this past weekend, so let the countdown start!!

So our invitations were sent on Tuesday.  Our guests love them so far.  We've been experiencing some family drama with FI's dad and new step mom so that has taken just a chunk of joy out of my week.  I am trying to not let it affect me too much.

 

I think my next project is the next installment of our newsletter and our photography scavenger hunt.  What is everyone else working on?
