WHITE LIGHTS MANIA

So yesterday I went through so many strands of White lights! I had to make sure they all work. Of course not all of them did, so i had to try and make them work. In the end some of them still didn't, which was to be expected. I don't know what it is about white lights, but doing all that made me so tired. After all, the only thing I was doing was sitting on the floor and plugging in and unplugging chords. But....it's done and I don't have to do it again. That's the beauty of a job like that. I can cross it off my list of things to do. By the way I think white lights with the white cord is so pretty. We didn't have any of those growing up, so I had never really seen them up close before yesterday. They are really really pretty.

It's less than a month till we get married!!! 28 days to be exact!!! The last weeks have gone by so very fast!! We've done so much too. I've had my wedding dress fitted!! I am very excited about that. It's going to be beautiful. I love it! And yesterday we got our first gift in the mail!! Somehow that really made it real. Funny how a gift could do that.

Things have been stressful...as would be with a wedding...but we have been very blessed in finding the things we would like to do without spending a fortune. I know the Lord has blessed us.

So...the count down begins!! Today is day 28!!!

I mailed out the invitations this morning!!! YAY!!!!! I was so excited to get those all finished! I am so grateful for all the help I've had doing them. I could never have done them on my own. Especially the licking part! YUK I hate licking envelopes! I didn't have to lick a single one!! Thank you to everyone who helped me design, print, cut, tie, punch, stuff, lick and stamp!!! I couldn't have done it with out you!!!
So Phil and I went and registered on Monday. It was crazy! I am not a shopper! Spending hours hanging around the store is not my idea of fun. Ha Ha Ha!! It took a lot longer than I thought it would. Because I have collected so many kitchen things already, we added household things that we really need. It made it a bit harder, but..... we did it and came out alive on the other side!
