As Tigger Would Say

Ta ta for now!!

Oh, my, the time has come to post an official goodbye. I wasn't actually going to do this, but then I realized I won't have computer access tomorrow!

I'm pretty sure everything is done . . . except for the chair delivery tomorrow, getting my e-ring polished so it sparkles, dropping off the programs and stuff at the ceremony site, and other assorted things I will be running around doing tomorrow.

To ALL the LIW Ladies - thanks for being there for the joy, and the tears, the drama, and the melodrama, late night cheese fixes, and other munchie attacks! Many girls don't do shout outs because they are afraid to forget someone. I'm scared half to death, but I'm gonna do it anyway! In no particular order:

To Ron (I know, not really an LIW Lady, but what the heck!) Thanks for following through on an idea, an inspriation, or whatever the heck it was that got this website started!

To Liz & Kim & Marie (Who really are LIW Ladies) Thanks for a myriad of things! Liz for always being a good sport, Kim for your outstanding picture taking skills, and Marie for getting FH on his feet dancing at the anniversary party!

To Janna - thanks for the spa day today. I was actually off my feet for an entire hour!! Thanks for everything else too. Your friendship is invaluable. Making friends after a certain age is never easy, and making friends online is not always something that will stand the test of time. I know we will!

To Jaime - Enjoy Puerto Rico honey!! Get an amazing tan! Thanks for including me in your special day, and for sharing dirt on B.L. and his daughter!!

To Leslie - Founder of the late night cheese crew. Your FMs have touched me so much, sometimes choked me up and left me speechless. The one I received this week has kept me sane (sort of - it at least gave me a focus point when things were getting hairy). I'll keep my fingers crossed that the wish comes true! It will be totally awesome!!!

To Betsy - Queen of the GTGs You got me out of the house!!!! Thank you!!! I hope you enjoy Sunday as much as I enjoyed my birthday.

To SweetCin - Your kindness and thoughfulness will NEVER be forgotten. Keep me posted on the 'sitation' we were working on.

To cindyandkevin - For you it was 4 months and 2 days, for us it was 2 months and 4 days (or something really close like that!). I know I won't look like a china doll that belongs on a wedding cake, but I hope I look as good as you did!

Theresa - Ok hall twin - make sure you take notes!

To anyone that I know I should have mentioned but forgot -> first to myself I'm an idiot, second to all of you -> I haven't really forgotten, I just need to stop typing this long arse farwell and put some ice on my foot so I can dance at my wedding!!!!!

We're not leaving for our HM until the 14th, so I'll be back on Tuesday the 10th when FH has to go to work so we can take our 14 day cruise!!!

To my date twins - have an awesome day ladies!!!

To EVERYONE:

have a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful day!!!

lots of luck to u

Darlene - may you have a beautiful, perfect day! The weather sounds like it is going to be perfect!!!!! Can't wait to see pics and hear all about it!

Congrats to you and your soon to be DH!!!!!

I wish you the most amazing day of your life. Although I will not be there, I will be thinking of you all day on Sunday!! I hope your life is a wonderful as you and Jay deserve. You are perfect for eachother and I wish you both nothing but a life full of love and an eternity of happiness! Now...go and get married sweetie!!!! We'll see you when you get back!!!!

Have a wondeful wedding.

Darlene, I think the scales of justice will be very well balanced! I am so thrilled to be a part of your day. Bad news though... I have a killer zit and ran out to make sure I have the proper make up so I dont spoil your pictures! I even got Ed to buy me a new dress!

Darlene, aka sexyesq!!!!

Congratulations sweetie!! It has been truly a pleasure planning our weddings together!!!

Wishing you a fantastic day filled with love and happiness!!!

All the best !

Congratulaions Enjoy your day! I hope you dance the night away!

Darlene, can't wait until tomorrow. You've always been a true friend & helped me out more than you can imagine. I cannot wait until your big day tomorrow. You are going to look beautiful. I know I'm going to lose it when Jay starts tearing up.



Try to get some rest today!!!!!!!

Congratulations Sweetie!!!! Best of Luck to both of you! And ENJOY your day!!!!!

Darlene - Have a WONDERFUL day. You deserve it. I wish you and FH the best of luck and a lifetime of happiness.

Good I didn't miss this considering how I am rarely online these days!!!

Darlene, I moved out here 2 years ago and kept to myself because I really didn't know anyone. You basically opened up to me as a friend, and I will forever be thankful for that. Who knew pool was such a bonding tool??!! And not only have I found a friend in you, Andrew has found a friend in Jay, and it's such a great thing that I am beyond words.

You and Jay are perfect for each other and Andrew & I are so extremely happy for you both. You have made it because you are both amazing people who deserve each other. The love you both share is evident to anyone who meets you.

I will see you tomorrow when you marry the love of your life and I will not rest today until I find what you were looking for!!!

Congrats sweetie!!!! You made it!!!!

Darlene! I know you and Jay will have an amazing day and I'm so honored to be able to be there to share in the celebration. You are an amazing person who has always been there for your LIW gals. I wish you both a lifetime of love, happiness, and laughter. Now go get married!!!

p.s. I'll definitely be taking notes!

Darlene,

I hope you have a day filled with utter bliss and happiness! I am so glad I had the chance to meet you and Jay last year at TWOTY. You are both so sweet. You have been a most supportive fellow bride, and I want to thank you for all the times you've been there to listen and offer advice. I know you're going to have a wonderful day tomorrow. I cannot wait to see pictures!!

DH and I are honored to be part of your day, Darlene!!!!!!!! We can't wait to celebrate with you and the rest of the LIW ladies!!!!!!!! Cheers to you and Jay!!!

Enjoy every moment of it Darlene
