6 Days!!!!

Today was mostly about errands. Of course I predicted the drunken post bachelor party phone call from Ryan... I didn't think it would be 5am!!! I talked to him a little bit and passed back out. But while we were talking I felt an itch on my lower back and when I went to scratch it there was something there! ARGH!!! I wanted to scream but it was 5am and I'd wake my mom up so I didn't. It was a bug and I flung that creepy thing across the room! Ohhh shuddering even at the thought. NO idea where it came from.

So today we went to church, brunch, Michaels, Kohls, did the bridesmaid's gifts, organized downstairs, the SEATING CHART, place cards, and now I am working on our digital frames for the reception. Here is a sneak peek:




Guess who? (:

Back to work... this scanning thing is going to take me all night!!!

Fingers still crossed!!!!

7 Days!!! One WEEK!

I cannot believe it!

Today Mom and I packed up my car and Dad's (since Dad had the van in DC with the boyscouts) and drove to the apartment. We hit some roadwork and traffic on 95 but it wasn't a bad drive. We stopped for lunch on 95 and made decent time. I kept randomly losing mom since she didn't like to go as fast as me, but you know on 95 it is every one for themselves!!! So I had to slow down a lot for her to catch up. But we got everything into the apartment and I took mom over to the Air Force Base. We walked around the exchange and intended to go to the comissary but it close at 1700! Never would have made it. So we went to the 7 day store an held up the line with our ridiculous purchase (aka the staples for the apartment).

Once we got the groceries away we drove back home. It was a long drive but it was nice to spend it with mom. Not sure when we will get to do another road trip so I really enjoyed it... even if it was a LONG time in the car!! Thanks Mom (:

Ryan is in South Carolina having a semi bachelor party this evening. No drunken phone calls yet... let's see how the night goes!

We have a LOT to do in the next three days (all of which are supposed to be rainy) since we want to try and have it all done by Wednesday. We so got this!

Wedding Weather Update

Clouds are ok. I can do some clouds. As long as nothing leaks from them.

The Countdown Continues

I went and picked up our marriage license today! The lady at the municipal building is so nice, she is coming in on a Saturday so we can sign them with our witness. Ryan obviously can't be here on weekends so this was really a nice thing for her to do!

This weekend we're going to hopefully have our last meeting with Father Tom and then meet with Brett, the music director at the church and pick out our music.

Sam contacted me today to start letting me in on my bachelorette party. I am pretty excited. We're going to go to a winery and do a sleepover at my cousin Jill's lake house. It sounds perfect. I am not a big bar person so going out and doing bachlorette dares while bar hopping and all that isn't me. I can handle A bar, or a pub, but I am not a huge drinker with my stomach as it is. Just having fun with my girls is all that matters. I am all for going crazy with them! I am not sure on the rest of the particulars yet, but I am really looking forward to it.

I cannot believe it is only 23 days away!!

And just to share a little bit of why I love Ryan so much, a peek at our text exchange this morning:

Ryan: Hey cutie, whatcha doin?
Allie: Work.
Ryan: Good news.
Allie: What?
long wait
Allie: Wait, good news that I am working or something else?
Ryan: No! I just saved a bunch of money using Geico!
Allie: ...you are such a dork! How long have you been waiting to use that one?
Ryan: Lol for EV ER
Allie: Want smore?
Ryan: Smore what?
Allie: You're killing me smalls!

Sandlot anyone? Ok, we are both dorky and accept it!
