Very Teri ~ New Wedding Project

 

First, there will have to be junk removal! My children keep wanting to get rid of stuff they have out grown, this is a good thing. But… I will someday have grandchildren (my first in June!) and I want to have a toy room. Ugh, where to put things until they will be used?
There is a [...]

The Wanna Be Bride – Part 21

Well, its kind of been a down week. Not much wedding planning going on. I had mid-terms for school, which took the majority of my time. I did get a few things done though – like looking for invitations.
I never knew paper could be so expensive. We looked into paper and printing through our local small [...]

Very Teri ~ Upset…

I take Armour Thyroid medication and when I went to get my prescription, they were out. So… they gave me a generic brand, ugh.
It seems that there is some kind of shortage of Armour Thyroid right now? I knew something was wrong when I just cried at everything and my heart seemed to be doing [...]

The Wanna Be Bride – Part 20

Well, our Wanna Be Bride is in mid-terms at college and very busy writing papers etc. Hopefully, she will be back to share with us next week.  I know things are moving right along and she seems to be happy with her progress.
This makes it good for me…  Teri :~

Very Teri ~ It’s Not Working…

There are two things that I am concerned with these days. One is the invitations, and the other is the placement of our dessert buffet table. My daughter is not to concerned with the invitations:  we just need to find an inexpensive one. The dessert table situation, however, is very important to her.
The problem lies with how to [...]

Mother Of The Bride ~ The Journey

 Well, I suppose you have guessed by now that The Wanna Be Bride is my daughter. I thought it might be interesting to get both sides of the story from now until the wedding day … and maybe beyond. You know, kind of a mother’s perspective vs. a daughter’s perspective. What do you think? I’ll [...]

The Wanna Be Bride – Part 19

We walked into David’s Bridal at 11am sharp on a sunny Thursday. The receptionist greeted us warmly, asked us our appointment name, and motioned for one of the girls, Kami, to come help us. Kami asked a few questions about what I wanted and if we were working on the bridesmaids dresses today too.
With that [...]

Flower Basket Project

This basket was purchased at the Goodwill store for under one dollar. The first time it was used it was painted white and then a red wire ribbon was put through the large holes with bows tied on the  sides.
For this baskets second duty, it is painted purple with green twisted rope strung  through the large holes, [...]

Who’s in Charge?

Who’s in charge? Well, if it’s in mom’s backyard, mom probably is. Or, you might just have someone you really trust volunteer for the job. Whoever it is, will still need help, and lots of it. There is no way one person can do everything and remain sane or pleasant to be around. So… who do [...]

The Wanna Be Bride – Part 18

Well… I only recieved a few calls from the  Bridal Fair forms I filled out; an ice sculpture company, DJ guy, and a few emails, other than that the lines have remained quiet. Oh! But I actually did get a call from the American Laser Centers – for a $300 gift certificate! I went for my consultation just yesterday. I [...]
