matthew comes home
Today is the day Matthew finally comes all the way home. But only for a few days! Eleven to be exact. And not even ALL of eleven....engagement, wedding and then off to his new apartment.....that's life in the fast lane! Exciting, but soooo fast. It is all good....life has a way of moving you along whether you want to or not, lol...
wedding crafts
So, got a couple more things done. Painted two pillowcases for the couple (Mr. Corbitt & Mrs. Corbitt) and put the wedding date on the handkerchief that Caity will be wrapping around her bouquet. Downloaded wedding and sand ceremony vows for Caity to look at. Started the wall hanging....finished the champagne glasses yesterday. Also started putting recipes in the cookbook I bought for Caity. It's so cute...it's red checked and by Susan Branch with the title of "To My Daughter" on the front. May not get it finished before she leaves, I'll just send her my recipes and she will have to write them in there, lol....
Caity went and ordered her hair flowers from the florist. It is only going to cost $25. She wants lots of different kinds of white flowers like daisies, rose buds and other kinds with white ribbons. She picks it up that Saturday morning.... She isn't wearing a veil, just flowers in her hair. She is riding up on a horse (black and white) and gets off at the end of the aisle for her Dad to walk her down the aisle. The Special Bridesmaid, Emma, will also be standing there to adjust her train and follow behind her. I know, exciting, right?

engagement shower
So, since the groom will only be home for two weeks everything is on a SUPER tight schedule. We decided to have an engagement party/bridal shower all in one! I made up the invites (for next Tuesday!) and mailed them just moments ago....now on to finish the wedding banners. The champagne glasses are painted and curing. Kim made the cake topper (two owls and a moon) and she is making the table centerpieces (beta fish with peace plants and roses.) I need to make a banner for the road, one for the wedding site and at least one for the reception! Just bought 100' of sisal rope....hope that's enough, lol....
wedding
Super slammed with wedding preps. So MANY things yet to do....crafts to make....details to finalize....money to spend, lol....trying to round up all the RSVP's is one of the more detailed things....Venues - check. Chairs - check. Invites - check. Menu - check. Horse - check. Dress - check. Rings - check. Flowers - check. Photographer - check. Musicians - check. Guess what? Officiant - NOT check! Amazing how the MOST important detail can get side railed. Working on it, working on it....
