i know...i know...

it has been a while sine i've posted anything. i have been a blog slacker. there are so many last minute things to remember and do that any free time i have isn't really free time b/c i'm thinking of all those things. i can't believe the wedding is a week away - 1 week. it's so crazy. i can't believe it's here, but i am so excited!

my parents came down for a few days last weekend (danny was off gallivanting with his friends in canada - slacker) to help me with wedding stuff. my mom and i had lunch with cheryl on saturday to see how many things i had totally forgotten about, and i am very happy to say that nothing was a shock, unlike some of my previous lunches with cheryl. our big project for the weekend was table runners. i had bought some random pieces of fabric and had no idea if i had enough for all the tables or what i was going to do if we didn't. turned out that i had exactly, exactly how much fabric we needed. mom worked on those while i started on a couple other projects, and they turned out wonderful! i couldn't have done it without my mom. she was such a huge help.

mom also brought me my something borrowed and what could be considered my something old (i'm pretty sure i'm going to have multiples) - a beautiful antique beaded evening bag that belongs to my grandma and a handkerchief that belonged to my grandpa who passed away. i realize it's just a handkerchief, but it means so much to me to have something of his with me on my wedding day.

i'll share some other accomplishments with photos in upcoming posts, but i'm not going to promise dates, just in case.

things we have left to do:
pick up favors
pick up danny's suit
pick up mums
material for chuppah
earrings for the bride
programs
scrapbook guestbook
compile must-take photo list (any requests?)
