Last night my bridesmaid that can’t fit in her dress told me about an idea that her co-workers are taking part of. It’s called a weight loss race, and she asked if I wanted to join in. Here’s her explanation:
You pick a number of pounds to lose (say, 20). We all weigh ourselves on [...]

Dress drama-rama
My bridesmaids have had a case of too big, too little and too little when it comes to their dresses. I was hoping my last bridesmaids dress would be “just right!” but it wasn’t. And since it’s difficult to alter dresses down, we have a back-up plan. My original choice of bridesmaids dress only goes [...]

Oh, what a busy week!

A few weeks ago I posted some songs we were considering for our recessional/processional/first dance. Here are some of the songs we’re considering for cocktail hour. We’ll miss most of it as we’re getting photos taken, but I like the idea of these songs being played regardless. We’re looking for a few old classics and [...]

Last night The Shining was on, and since I’m reading the book right now, I gave it a (third or fourth) glance. I can’t help it, I love scary movies and this movie was one of the few to actually scare the holy bejesus out of me.
