Our First Dance…

The wedding took place yesterday at 4:30 pm at the St. Joseph’s Church Museum. We followed the wedding ceremony with dinner and dancing at the Tremont House. It was an absolutely fabulous day. We were truly grateful to be surrounded by family and friends that loved us, and we missed those of […]


Say a Little Prayer…

Yes, I’m still up. Yes, I need to get some sleep. But Kymberlie had to leave the rehearsal dinner early tonight because her back hurt so bad that she thought she was going to be sick. She said she was going back to the hotel so she could lay down. I […]


It’s Island Time!

Kymberlie, my Mom, Jason & I headed down to Galveston last night. It was nice to have a night away from all the hustle and bustle of wedding planning and just get settled in to the hotel for the weekend. Ahhhhhh…
Today we have the bridal luncheon at 1:00, nails at 3:00, rehearsal at […]


She’s A Rockstaaaar!!!

Back at the beginning of the wedding planning, Mike & I discussed creating a CD for wedding favors. It was a logical choice, considering he sings bass for the Lager Rhythms. However, then we moved. And there were a lot of other things to plan and do. Plus I’m Chelsey’s Maid […]


Blessings Hide In Strange Places…

Reading about this fantastic teacher makes me wish that all teachers could be so good. That would be a parent’s dream come true. It’s also refreshing to see someone go through such a tragic accident and turn their life around in to so much good that has touched so many others. Funny […]


I Have a Need…

Eep! I’m gathering things together for the wedding, and I need a copy of “For Once in My Life” from the Frank Sinatra Duets II CD. Anyone have it? The rest of the album is available through Rhapsody, but that track isn’t - and it’s the one I need!


Today’s Projects…

Today’s projects include getting Jason’s hair cut, getting him fitted for a tux, and working on items for the wedding:
- Wedding Programs
- More on Wedding Programs
- CDs for favors
- Finding cards for the “Wish Bowl” for guests to sign.
- Changing the reception time with the Tremont House and with the carriage company.
- Picking up the […]


For the Record…

For the record, cottage cheese is one of the most vile and disgusting foods ever made. Nasty!


Informal Wedding Survey…

Our wedding is next week, May 29th at 4:30 in the afternoon. Originally, we had planned on leaving the reception at 9:30 and the reception would end at 10:00. Then we realized that we have a lot of family coming in from out of town, so we considered extending the wedding to 11:00, […]


Blog! Get Your Free Blog Here!

I’m a dork. I wrote this great post yesterday about how today is the deadline for the “Win a Blog! contest. Then I didn’t publish it. So now I’m here to tell you that you have less than 2 hours to write some fabulous work and submit them. If you can […]


Moving Closer…

Today, I have a 1:30 appointment at the passport office. Tomorrow, 10:00 with the wedding photographer, followed by picking up the unity candle from the Candle Lady. (We went to visit the Cake Lady last week and settled on the White Almond wedding cake, as originally planned. Go with the instinct.) […]

Collective Deep Breath

As I am sure you have noticed, I’ve been offline for the past few days. Wedding errands - including getting our marriage license, a swim meet, the Lager Rhythms CD Release Party, a lot of yardwork with my parent’s AMAZING help, and a shower thrown for me by the people that I used to […]

Really, I’m Not a Bridezilla…

This letter from a Bridezilla takes the cake. I’m not that bad, I promise!


TiVo, TiVo, TIVO!!!

I love, love, LOVE my TiVo! They have given those of us with a Series 2 Tivo a 1 month free trial of the Home Media Option! We had talked about buying it after the wedding, so now we can take it for a test spin before we buy! How fabulous is […]
