oh my word it has been so long and i have oh-so-many things to tell you.
i can't even decide where to start.
you all would be very proud of me, i have been Super Productive these days (let's hope, eh?! less than three weeks away now!)
i think the three week mark crept up on both scott and i. i mean, we knew it was close, and even getting closer, but i think one day i was minding my own business and it was 2 months away still, and then the very next day i woke up and found out it's only three weeks away. madness i say.
wellll...let me start blabbing news and we'll see where this goes.
i found the perfect shoes! red, cute, and claaaassssyy. i took my dress to the seamstress with said shoes of cuteness. she was adorable but spoke i think 14 words of english, 17 on a good day. they included but were not limited to, "you move arms ok?" making big rowing gestures, which...heh...phew! good thing she thought of THAT because our first dance involves some serious Fred Astaire arm movements, so...good save.
here are the shoes shoes shoes
they look plastic latexy because of the flash but they are satin
i like the red and the ruffle. oh fun
so that is that.
next, scott and i got the keys to our place. WOOT. and we've spent the past 2 days painting like craazy. here are before and afters~
Before:
bedroom that now has new carpet and different paint.
living room in which we kept that same sage green because it is lovely
mildly retina numbing blue. a must go.
slightly took over the little kitchen with it's pizazz.
After:
Blue be-gone! it is now a soft grey/blue with one panel of dark grey/blue where once an intense red lived.
sliiightly different angle
excuse the bad lighting, we finished at dark (no power yet so time is precious)
he's cute but so tired. we worked hard.
i have moved in some of our gifts from showers and some of my own things. wonderful wonderful feeling.
we also spent some time this weekendish helping some good friends join our side of the dating world:
congratulations dear dano and charlotte. we are soo happy. and you are so cute.
i have also:
- figured out our exact drink order for bevmo but refuse to use their delivery service because it costs $200. no thank you, i can carry it.
- finished almost all of the favors (thanks mom and nanny)
- working on place "cards"
- ordered all rental items and had consultant come measure our reception site
- tried hard not to think of the 15 thousand other things i need to really and truly be thinking about
ok, speaking of those 15 thousand other things, i really must get back to them so i can check some other big things off the list.
much love and t-minus 19 days!!
