Wedding shower – yey!

I really don’t mean to go a month between posts, but I swear I’ve been busy. And April seems to be the busiest month for me by far, and I’m only halfway through it!

After the March trip to Oxford, multiple emails with printers, vendors, and more phone calls than I care to think of, I’ve finally gotten most of the wedding at least outlined, if not nailed down. This weekend is yet another trip to Oxford, this time for hair/makeup trial and picking out rental stuff. When I get back, it’s going to be a flurry of putting invitations together and getting them in the mail. Next weekend is a trip to Atlanta to see friends and hit the Ren Faire. And the weekend after that, I’ll be passed out in my office at work, wondering how I lived through April.

On the positive side of things, I had my bridal shower this past weekend! I wasn’t planning on having one, but my mom’s business partner asked if she could host one for me. I said yes, and even if it was small, we had fun!

Barbaree (on the left) was a wonderful hostess, and I had a grand time. I still need to beg her for her chicken crepes recipe, cos it kicked butt. There was a lot of laughter from everyone that came, which is what I wanted for the shower and what I want for the wedding. Fortunately, none of it was at my expense. And I think the mimosas she handed us all when we came in helped get the giggling started. ::grin::

And now, to relieve a little more stress, I’m going to go back to knitting on my new project. Hopefully, when I’m back next week, I post a little on the knitting front. /wanders off
