Official August 2006 Thread. Come on in.

Original post by jantany26

I figured we could start an official august thread and see what are we up to. I also want to know if I have a date twin.
me, nothing yet because I don't have money yet but most likely will start booking stuff hopefully at the end of this year, that's is if I find a job before then.

So post away.

I'm tania and my husband is Will. we are renewing our vows and having the wedding we never had since we got married on city hall and had no money then. I guess things never change.

I normally not on at night but I just had to share my excitement with someone and you ladies are the only one I think who would understand.

I now know how you all feel when things started being purchased off your registry. People can be so generous. It is exciting...so count me as an avid peeker.

Just had to share with my August girls!

Thanks for reading!!! Hope you all have a good night!

maryb, I can totally relate to what happened to you. I felt like I was on a total breakdown myself last week. What your mom said was cute...and definitly has truth in it. I hope you have a great shower.

This weekend will be total wedding stuff for me. Addressing invites, shopping for day of accessories, and hiring the local florist for the church flowers. Hopefully I can get it all done.
Who else is having a weekend like this or something similar?

Wow you ladies got a lot of stuff done. I was able to do a few things this weekend like putting together my invites but I am no where close to getting them all addressed yet.

maryb, how did the shower go?

KvsGrl - you looked like you had a lot of fun at your shower. I couldn't veiw all the photos from my computer but the ones that did come through looked great.

That is cool...I can't wait to get mine out. I love getting mail and sending the invitations out means mail for me!!! I am still addressing them. I definitly will have them at the post office on the 24th.

Anyone else starting to feel the pressure of trying to get everything done and still do your regular routines?

Glad to see that I am not the only one. I am glad you are enjoying planning. I always have had mix feelings about it. Sometimes I like it and sometimes I don't. Today's feelings on it is, I just want it to be that day already.

Am I the only one hand addressing their invites? I wanted to do the printer route but apparently my mom was persuasive enough to tell me it is nicer if you hand write them.

definitly know that feeling. There is a few piles here at work that just won't get smaller. I swear it seems to get bigger instead. hehehe The bright side is at least we aren't back a few months ago. Our day will definitly be here before you know it. I can not wait!
