Thanks, Deb! I loved your PJ and TR. Your wedding was beautiful.
I've been away from the disboards for awhile for a number of reasons. We've had some issues in the past few weeks. First, DF's sister and BIL were in a bad car accident and totaled their truck; BIL has to go for physical therapy on neck and upper back, but they are both lucky to be alive. A few days after that, DF's mom had a mini-stroke. She was hospitalized for a few days while they played with her meds, but is doing fine now. That was scary, though.
I was taking an accelerated grad class with a semester's worth of work crammed into 9 weeks. I just finished that up on Thursday (I submitted my final project 3 days early, I'll have you know!) so now I have more time to focus on wedding stuff, and I can return to my beloved disboards!
Since my last post, we have had two more snow days, one of which was today. I keep telling myself it will all work out simply because it has to.
On a positive note, there are only 33 days until my shower and 106 until the wedding! I can't believe we are almost in double digits!!!!! We also got a "draft" of our BEO (a few too many mistakes for my liking, but we'll work that all out).
As I've mentioned before, I have an orthopedic disability since birth and walk with forearm crutches. My current pair are a light purple. When I first joined the boards, one of my first posts was what to do about the crutches. I didn't know if I wanted to stick with the light purple, get light blue as my something blue or white. Per some suggestions, I went with the white and added light blue crystals on the bottom to make hidden Mickeys for my something blue. Here's how they turned out:
I think they turned out cute
I ordered really cute postcard shower invitations from a seller on Etsy. She did such a great job that I asked her if she would design our wedding invitations for us. We only need 10, and it killed me to pay well over $100 for a minimum of 25 invitations when 15 of them would get tossed in the trash.
They've been designed for quite some time now, and I did post them on the invitations thread, but since our date is officially ours now, we've gone ahead and ordered them. These pics are going to be huge, but when I tried to resize them, you couldn't read anything.
Invitation:
Highlight of my day was when the mail came. My iron on sparkly transfers arrived! I ordered them from the seller PeaceLoveRhinestones on etsy after reading someone else's PJ.
When we picked our date, we looked at the school calendar. Our last day was scheduled for June 8th. Leaving June 17th and getting married on June 21st looked fine, even with a few snow days.
Yeah. Little problem. We are only in January and have already had four snow days, with a possibility of a fifth on Thursday. And on top of that, we didn't have school today because of a water main break.
Hi! Would you mind sharing the etsy seller who did these? I love the design and would love to see if she has any thank you cards!
I ordered tanks from this seller too! (I am not even going to TRY to put them on myself...I don't do DIY!) I ordered one that says Bride in Disney font with the carriage and one that says Just Married with a slipper. She's so great to work with!
I know about stressful timing! I am a teach too! My last day of work (post-planning) is the day before my wedding! Luckily my principal said that if I get my room done on Thursday, I can have Friday off.
Oh, and I just subscribed to your PJ...love it and am getting married a week before you!
