AHHHHH 19 days!!!!!!

The fact that I haven't posted in a month might be a small clue to how busy I've been...and not even with wedding stuff!

Two weekends ago Matt and I went up with the high school group for winter camp and cooked 3 meals a day for 70 people. It was really fun, we got to spend alot of time with each other, in the kitchen and then relaxing back at a cabin for some of the leaders.

This past Friday we put on our annual Valentine's Day Dinner at church which I headed up so this whole past week was basically taken up by prep work for that.

Yesterday I had my bridal shower, which was a blast (although I still dread opening presents in front of everyone!).

Now it's crunch time! This week I pick up my dress, finish the wedding favors, and this Saturday is the deadline for RSVPing and when I give the reception location my final head count! Today I'm ordering a second sample cake, scheduling a time to walk through the reception with our coordinator, sorting our hair and make up for my girls, and hopefully working on bridal shower thank-you cards. Still to do...

Finish up two last details for my attendant's gifts, write all notes and wrap them.
Confirm our honeymoon reservations.
Do the beading on my veil.
Hair & make-up trial runs.
Schedule my nail appointment.
Decide on send-off materials, if any.
Decide on get-away car.
Decide on ceremony set-up & decor.
Decide on where to take pictures.
Create "must-have shots" list for photographer & videographer.
Create reception music play list.
Start (and finish) ceremony programs.
And...the list continues...
