Was in NY this past wknd! Had shower, m/u (pics), saw flowers, DIY's. Come see my pics!!!

OK, so I was in NY this past weekend. Just got back to GA tonight. I'm exhausted, but had to post and show you guys the pics. Couldn't wait until tomorrow.

First, my shower! Unfortunately, I have no pics of this, but it was truly amazing! My mom, MOH, and 2 BM's went completely out of their way. Of course, it was not a surprise considering I had to come from GA. Also, since I had to go back, no big gifts were given. Everything was sent to me in GA, but I got ALOT of giftcards and checks. My family and friends were extremely generous! My sisters came up with the cutest idea. B/c I was not allowed to open any of the shower gifts sent to me before the shower, my sisters made up this adorable poem that stated for them to be original in the way they were to tell me what the sent to me. People brought in boxes full of down feathers (our down comforter), a box with a ramekin (my corningware), a mini calphalon pot from their kids play kitchen....just the cutest ideas. I JUST LOVED IT!!!!

I got so much stuff done this past weekend that I had been working on for a while. First, my picture card box. It still has to go on the lazy susan...



I went to Burtons to see my sample CP's. They did such a great job. Exactly what I wanted. Except.....Since their is no way in he** we'll meet our min of 175, b/c people suck, the FH said we could have round instead of the oval tables, so I need to have Burtons switch the CP's to round! No big, I kinda like the round tables better! What do ya think?


I went crazy and did my shoes. My family just makes fun of me, but I just think they're adorable!


AND LAST, BUT NOT LEAST......MY M/U! I went to a trial with Jillian, a vendor here. She was soooo sweet and did such a great job! She actually used green colors on me, and I absolutely loved it. She put fake eyelashes on and everything. I booked her on the spot. Please excuse the first, no m/u pic, very very scary!
Do you like the green?

Thank you so much girls! I truly appreciate all the kind words!

I really did have an amazing time in NY this past weekend, but I have to say it was wonderful to come home to my own house, my FI, my dog etc. Plus, not to rub it in.......but it'll be 70 degrees down here today! O/K!!!!!!

Can't wait for the big day. It's coming so close. I met with the Fox Hollow this weekend too, they won't lower our min of 175, but are willing to throw things in for us, include the vendors, etc. We'll see how that pans out! Anywho, I'm off to get ready for work . Thanks again ladies!

We played some really good games. People said this was the most fun shower they ever went to. Maybe they said that b/c my mom has some really loud rowdy friends who are freakin hysterical, or maybe they just said it to be nice, who knows, but I think everyone had a great time.

At one point, while everyone was up getting food, my sisters and a BM were putting things in people's pocketbooks. My aunt (very religious) had a pair of yellow thongs....HYSTERICAL! There was granny panties, my nephews play cars, etc. Then we played the 'what's in your pocketbook game'. Everyone pretty much got a scratchoff. It was great!
