Alright so, it was catchy even if it really doesn't make any sense. On July 8th I not only turned a quarter of a century old but it was our 6 month mark. Now that all the partying is over, we have quite a bit to concentrate on... after July is over.
July has been... one of those months... What with the 4th of July and my birthday, two weeks in my head is already spinning. However, we recently checked tuxes and cake off the list. And next weekend all the bridesmaids are getting together to get those damned dresses checked off also. (post forthcoming on that one...)
This weekend we have the tasting for our wedding food. I am pretty excited... but that's because it's food and I love food.
This weekend we are also going to see Star Wars in Concert. We are such dorks, but I love it. This weekend is also full of a large amount of other things. My brother is also getting ready to go to bootcamp in the next week or so. We are still up in the air about when he's coming back... last time I saw him he said he'll be back the MORNING of my wedding. This is my biggest stress point right now.. not having my big brother at my wedding would be devastating. But mom keeps telling me there's nothing I can do about it so I don't need to worry right now. But still...
Of course we then have BF's sister-in-law's baby shower the last weekend in July. I get to make cookies for that... which I will then eat. I'm having a problem with things like ice cream and cookies... and mexican food. I don't think I've lost a pound (still). I might end up depending solely on underwear to retain my girlish figure. Weight loss fail so far anyways.
Once July is over I have sworn to concrentrate on the wedding only for the next few months. I want to get as much done before the holidays begin. The list of most important is as follows (in no particular order):
-Finish the bouquets
-Get rings figured out
-Get underwears for me so they can start getting my dress started
-Get invitations made to be sent out in late October/early November
-Get favor details figured out and get them babies started
-Make date for makeup trial
-Find hair lady and make date for hair trial
There is no way that is all going to fit into August so... I guess I will have to prioritize. Also, MoH has told me to keep the last two weekends in August free for her. I don't know why and I think it's fun that it's a mystery.
In any case, I guess we'll see how August goes. After July BF and I may need to take a weekend for ourselves and pupface.
Six months seems crazy to me. It seems more real, like this is where it all begins.
Now if we could just get all the guys to get fitted for their tuxes we would be on track!
Signing off for now... Hopefully I'll have dress info for you soon, non readers!
Ciao!
-Bo. J.
