Wedding Work

We have been up to our 'eyeballs' in wedding work these days! It is nice to see lines crossed through the items on 'the list'!

The dining room table has the pad covers on it and it has been turned into invitation central.

We finished everything up today except for 5 scragglers we still need addresses for. Natalie and Robert took a couple to the post office this morning on the way to Robert's haircut to be weighed for postage and bought all the stamps. So they are officially sealed and stamped and will go in the mail tomorrow! Ahhhhh--it's finally time!

Natalie is really happy with how they turned out. They are exactly what she dreamed of!

The pens for addressing! She decided I should write and she should assemble and stuff. We paced ourselves and figured out my hand could do 100 a day. So I would address about 20 at a time and go do something else and then come back and do 20 more, etc.

We got the cake server and knife today. Picked up the centerpiece vases from Patti. Got the laundry done. Dinner made. Arranged for easels for the reception for pictures. Natalie made an appointment for a wedding day hair run through. We had a fun treat! Robert's mother was in town for a business trip and she was able to come over so we could meet her and visit! What a nice woman. I really liked her. Her flight was 3 hours late so she had spent most of her day in airports, so I warmed up some dinner since she hadn't eaten and we sat at the kitchen table and just talked and talked. We went over some wedding things too, but mostly spent the time getting to know each other and chatting with the kids. She hadn't seen Robert since Brian and Mindy's wedding in April since he has been in Washington, D.C. doing his externship for the D.O.J., so it was a good catch up time and there's nothing like those hugs from your child when you haven't seen them in a while!

Off to bed. Nighty-night!
