Less then a week!


I am still at my parents house trying to have the days go by! I found this picture that I recently uploaded and decided to put it on so I don't have a week worth of blogs that were pictureless.
The dresses came in on Friday. 2 of my 4 bridesmaids will be able to get their dresses altered and the other 2 will right before the wedding because my aunt is fabulous and has agreed to bring her sewing machine and altering kit to save me some stress!
I am working a fireworks stand for the church on Tuesday and then Wednesday J and I take off to begin getting everything in place!!! Yay!!

Dress Fiasco!

I went in to the Bridal shop yesterday to pick up the bridesmaid dresses. They told me they would be in (after they have been telling me this every week for the past month). I walked in and told them who I was and what I was after. They looked at me like I was nuts and the lady says, "the dresses won't be in until next week" My mouth just dropped. I asked them if they knew when my wedding was. She said yeah, we can do all the altering overnight and PROMISE you will have your dresses completely ready. Well, that would work, if any of my bridesmaids could get there before the wedding. They all had made arrangements with people in Lincoln to do there alterations. Obviously that won't work if the dresses won't even be in until two days before the wedding. This is a bit stressful. We are attempting to come up with a plan B.

Other then that, Kara put up the semi-finished pictures of the bathroom (thank you!!) When I get back from the honeymoon I will put up the before and after pictures so everyone can compare!

I am at my parents house for the week. Trying to do last minute wedding things and not be too stressed. I am so stir crazy!

So the bathroom is looking like a bathroom! The lights are in and it is painted. J hooked up plumbing and is tiling today. I will get you those pics asap. Here is the new stuff! Tonight should be the last night for sure at Heidi and Jared's!

18 days!


I know a blog isn't very much fun unless there are pictures on them, but I just don't have any to put on right now, so how about a picture of J and me!! Always have plenty of those laying around!!

This weekend, we did the practice run through on my hair--it looked FABULOUS! As it comes closer and closer we think of more and more things that we have to do an have forgotten. Its starting to stress me out...ugh.

We textured and primed this weekend. J is home painting today with the hopes to get the floor ready to tile tomorrow. The plan is to be back in our house on Wednesday.

The last day of summer school is Tuesday and then on Wednesday we are going to take Heidi and Jared golfing and then to a nice dinner. It will be fun!

Sheetrock!

Its finally up!!! Well, kind of. J is out of town from today thru Saturday with a brief dropping by on Thursday. I made up for sleeping this weekend. I actually cut and hung sheetrock by myself! J was mud and taping and I was working on my own! Yay! I admit, that is something I NEVER thought I would do! I am going to finish some sheetrock in the closet and then we will only have two spots left, both of which I can't do on my own because they need things drilled in them. I couldn't get a good picture of the sheetrock (Kara-Stacey- any pointers??) so there isn't an updated picture, but it is starting to look like an actual room!

Waiting....

The wedding is getting closer and closer and I am so excited! And ready! I keep going onto the website where we are taking our honeymoon and it seems like it can't come soon enough!

We stayed at Heidi and Jared's all weekend. We also got the plumbing done, well all except the shower was done, and we framed in the bathtub. I was available to help and actually did for a little while. Then J went into the crawl space. He told me to stay upstairs and hand him things and help him that way. I sat on the tub waiting for him to hollar up for help. Next thing I know, the doorbell is ringing and I am curled up in the tub sleeping. Apparantly, I wasn't much help!

We took a trip to Home Depot on Saturday. We were in Home Depot for FOUR HOURS!!! We got a credit card to save 10% and they forgot to give us the discount, so they had to start all over and to key all of our items in one by one. The lady that did it was really nice and we had good conversation, so that was fun.
