So, now we have a rule that you can't buy anything for yourself until after Christmas. We have the same rule (well...I made the same rule!!) FI was absolutely ridiculous for doing that!!

always hoping for : diamonds!!

Its funny how you cross things off your list but then you just keep adding things and you never feel like you accomplish anything! OMG this is so true!!! LOL We're going this morning to get our documents translated...finally!! That is pretty much the last big thing! The rest is little planning things for me...photolist, make a couple CDs, welcome books. I can't believe it's so close!! 6 weeks from tomorrow & I'll be a Mrs! HOLY CRAP!!!

LOL Besides that, I confess that I am very very hurt that my friends bailed on my wedding. I put on a front for other people (like I usually do) and say that I'm ok with it & I understand, but I'm not & I don't. Seriously...grow up & take responsibility for a committment that you made. Be there for your friends. Geesh.

Congrats ladies!!! We all look forward to your continued help & kindness!

I have to give a lot of credit to my BF, I only get there b/c I know I have to meet her! Today was only my 3rd time but I feel like I can really keep this up as long as my BF sticks with it too. It feels great! I feel so energized! Good for you!!! I wish I was that motivated...prego or not!! LOL Love your ticker by the way!!

We decided to do a cheap christmas this year! With the recent house purchase & our wedding early in the new year funds will be a bit tight! Desiree, you've already saw what I just (literally an hour ago!) ordered for FI but I thought I would post it for others. I'm really proud of it...and he has NO IDEA! Engraved Puccini Crystal Liquor Set Good luck with the man room/cave ladies...I'm sure I have one coming in the near future!!

FI is very impressed...says he might have to order a few more shirts for casual evening wear down there (he's a bit of a girl! lol) http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...-32#post574921

LOL.... Don't you just hate "auntie"...especially when she brings all the "cousins" along with her!! LOL I'm glad to hear that things are so wonderful!!! And keep trying for that baby!!

Sorry Kayte...too late! Thanks for your opinion though! I went with monogram on the decanter & the one initial on the glasses. I agree with Alyssa that the full name might be too long. Hmmm...maybe I should have just went with the monogram on both! Grrr...oh well...what's done is done now! lol

I fell off the exercise train! Since the move I have not been able to get my @ss in gear!! But starting tomorrow I'm going to Zumba twice a week!! Not long until the wedding now so I have to get a move on! And I have my dress fitting in 2 weeks!!

Quote: Originally Posted by KLC77 I ordered FI linen pants from Beach Wedding Attire: Drawstring Linen Pants, Cotton & Linen Shirts, Shorts - Island Importer They have a pair that has a button and zipper closure rather than a drawstring. I'm still waiting for them to arrive. Hopefully they work. I ordered FI's & his BMs from here as well. FI is VERY happy with his and he is very picky! I haven't seen him in it though...same principle as him not seeing my dress!

Enjoy the movie & let us know how it is!! I really want to see it!

life : busy

I think they ship all over!! It is around $28 to ship here - that is FedEx Ground though...so it will be here in 2-3 days!! (Great for the last minute shopper!!)

I know...I called & they said no problem...it's just $5 extra. That's why it never hurts to call & ask!! Thanks!! (PS...how is married life treating you??!)

I am not using jewels, but I am putting a memory frame in mine to honor my late step-dad... For some reason I can't make the picc smaller (they are HUGE!)...here is the link http://i390.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/DSC00907.jpg http://i390.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/DSC00911.jpg

As I am sure most of you can relate, I can no longer make a decision - wedding related or personal - without running it by my BDW girls first! I am about to order FI's Christmas present & need your opinion on text. I have the option of make the decanter different than the glasses so what should I put on it?? His monogram (JMG) or his last name (MERRIGAN). I am just putting M on the glasses I think. Also...what font do you think I should use? Engraved Puccini Crystal Liquor Set I think I am partial to the script...what's your opinion?? As always, thanks in advance!!

Thanks Tami! I'm concerned that I do not have starfish anywhere else though - I am having a palm tree theme (and I think a palm tree on their chest would be silly?!) Another problem is I'm not very crafty! It's a great idea though...maybe it will get the ball rolling in my own head for some ideas!!

Ok...here goes nothing... Music please... Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday Michelle Happy Birthday to you!!!! Thank you...I'm here all day!! Hope you have a great day Michelle!!

I love how you put things! I agree! I cannot imagine my life without FI and definitely plan on spending the rest of my life with him. But things happen & people change. You just never know what life is going to throw at you. Plus, I am not a tattoo person - I do not have any (although I really like them on other people!) I do like the idea of a tattoo under the band though. If you are not jewellery people then you can just get a simple band. It's cheaper & not as "flashy" if that's not what you're into!

We filled out that information on the form our TA sent us. They should take care of this for you as long as they are aware of your choice.
