Yeah I have to agree that pastors really don't make a lot of money. You could just set aside the money and let him decided what it goes for so you don't feel like you are paying for one certain thing. If the pastor chooses to use the money for the flights and then pay for the hotel on his own that is up to him. I know either way it is more money...such is the beast we call "The wedding."

All right! Another awesome mom on board!!! Welcome

Wow that looks great! And you look so freaking happy!!!

Happy Birthday!!!!!

Congrats! Have an awesome wedding!

That should look pretty cool. How great is that...you had a cork that fits. Very Cinderella!

You poor girls! FH snores some but not that bad. I think only a few times have I wanted to punch him in the face. I usually go to bed before he does so I can get to sleep before he comes in.

Now I can get in. Those are AMAZING. Your wife is beautiful and it is so obvious how much you love her. You can see it in your eyes.

UUGH it won't let me in. What in the world could I be doing wrong?!

I would hate to see you take the chance of offending your closest family and friends. It is possible that if you are not willing to take 2-3 minutes to write a note to them, they will feel slighted. What if you wrote something really simple like... "Thank you so much for being a part of a our special day and for your generous gift. We are looking forward to using the money to help buy __________." If you did 15 cards at a time, that should only take about 30 minutes at the most. You could set aside one day a week to do that, and it would only take you five weeks to have them all done. I have to agree with you on this. People put time into getting to your wedding and everything that goes into that. My sister had about 200 people at her wedding and she just slowly worked on them. Maybe hubby could write the ones to his really close family--people who can read his writing. I know you asked for help finding a saying but I really think your guest will appreciate the time you put in. Good luck

That is great. Is he holding angry eyes?

When I first joined I looked through all the different sections for stuff that I wanted info on (i.e OOT bags and photos) now I just click the magic New Posts button. Good luck!

Here is mine. Our cat is TERRIFIED of our dog and I put together my own little cartoon of them. The dog loves sniffing the cat...she means no harm, she just wants to play.

We attached the magnet to a postcard that I made. Nothing super fancy.

My mom just emailed me to let me know that the guy who lives next door to her just shoveld her driveway and sidewalk in front of her house. He went over to thank him and he said he would happily do it again! She is going to go buy him a gas gift card so he can fill up his Snowblower. My mom's drive way is VERY long it it takes a long time to clear it off so this is a super big deal. How sweet. I guess I can pay it forward--Anyone want to come over so I can practice my new massage techniques? Sounds kinky but it isn't

Oh sweetie, I am so sorry you are stressed about the situation. Sometimes things happen in our life when we are not ready for them. I hope you find peace in your heart with whatever choice you make. MASSIVE HUGS TO YOU!!

I too have noticed this. NOBODY greets you anymore at stores. My mom works retail and about a month ago we went into a store and there were to grannies working the counter and we were the only customers in the store, there used to be a time when you would get barked at by a manager for not greeting a client. Well we walked around and as we were walking out the door she shouts to us " Oh there was nothing for you today?" my mother said "Oh sure NOW you decide to acknowledge us." Not typical mom behavior. I noticed it today at Target that the chick was not nice at all.

We LITERALLY just went through this yesterday!! I was even talking about moving the wedding date back---again. One thing that can cause you to be late is being stressed. Just take a test in the morning ( fresh pee) and then worry about what to do.

Those look very nice!

I love the one of you running! Looks so fun!

yes I have to agree with the title.

Way to go! You look great and the Tat looks nice with your dress ( or is it the other way around?)
