6 Months


So apparently 6 months in advance is not "advance" enough to plan a wedding. Did you know that people book wedding sites 1 year or more in advance? Sheesh! I didn't think we'd be able to find a place for this shindig! But we did...it will be lovely. It's a local farm with a pavillion for the ceremony and a large air conditioned room for the reception. Think "rustic" not country. That's what we're going for. She already has her colors and her flowers picked out. She's spoken to the preacher. So, technically whether I get anything else done, the wedding is on! We ordered the cakes too. She's going with cupcakes. How cute will that be? I keep tearing up when I imagine her coming down that staircase on her Dad's arm. And I know it will be here before I know it. I'm just going to concentrate on staying in the moment, like I did her senior year of high school, so I don't forget a moment...........Breathe....

So...I'm going to be a Mother-in-Law

I'm going to be a mother in law!! I can't even beleive it...it just sounds so foreign to me. Kyle proposed to Amanda a week ago, and we're still kind of in overwhelmed mode.
We're very happy but we have a whole lotta planning to do! John was laying in bed last night and out of the blue said,"I'm going to be giving my daugher away"...I think the realization just at that moment hit him. Poor guy.
