Mother Of The Bride ~ Exhausted!

Yesterday I gave you my list of things I needed to get done this week on spring break. I thought I’d give a run down on what I’ve accomplished so far.
Monday it was very stormy weather until late afternoon; about 4:30 I was able to get outside.  My son Jaryd and I raked up some bark from [...]

Mother Of The Bride ~ What’s On Your List Today?

Spring Break, and I am so stink-in excited!  Now don’t get me wrong,  I love being a home-school mom, it’s just by the time spring break gets here I’m really ready to do something different. On this subject, you never know what the weather will be like for this long awaited break but I have made [...]

The Wanna Be Bride – 18 Weeks To Go

Oh my goodness only 18 weeks!? Now that school is over there is so much to do. I have calls to make, stores to go to, people to see, projects to work on, and I am very excited about it all.
This week I am finalizing the bridal shower list, and I’ll be meeting with my [...]

Do You Need a Wedding Planner?

 
I was just visiting one of my wedding forums on  this very topic:  Do You Need A Wedding Planner. I’ll have to admit most of them came across as a bit snobbish. What is a wedding planner? In their opinion it was someone who could get you the best deals on location, catering, DJ, photographer, etc. Most of [...]

The Wanna Be Bride – 19 Weeks To Go

Finals this week at college and a baby shower for her sister this past weekend, so no update from our Wanna Be Bride. I know she picked up her wedding dress on Friday, I wonder if she still thinks it’s “the one?”
Surely we will hear from her next week… Teri :~

Mother Of The Bride ~ Shouldn’t Have Whined…

Last week I was whining about our Wanna Be Bride  not taking time to work on the wedding. Well, it sounds like soon the wedding plan is taking second place to nothing and no one, plus… she is going full throttle. Yikes! I know what full throttle is for this child and I’ll be the one begging for [...]

The Wanna Be Bride – 20 Weeks To Go

Okay, so these past two weeks have been a bit insane. The wedding, sad as it may be, is taking a second seat until my school is over. But only for one more week, then freedom. . .  So until that day, the 22nd of March, the wedding is in pause mode.
While in pause though, I [...]

It’s a Ring Thing

      I have three daughters, one is married, the other is now engaged to be married and then my 13 year old. My daughter who is married shared with her, now husband, what she wanted in a ring and he had it designed and surprised her with it. She was very excited and loves her ring.
Now [...]

Mother Of The Bride ~ Sewing Machine Search

If you are a DIY (do-it yourself) type person, you probably have a sewing machine in the house.  I have an old 830 Bernina that was handed down to me from my mother. It was used when she purchased it for herself. I love this machine. The bobbin thread never (ok, I can’t remember the last time) runs [...]

The Wanna Be Bride – 21 Weeks To Go

No Wanna Be Bride this week. I know they have made an offer on a house. I’m sure that is why she is not writing this week.
To much to do and not enough time to get it all done. So… stay tuned. She will have lots to share next week. If I can get her in [...]
