Invitations are out!!!!!

The invitations are out...in fact, I think most all of you probably got them already, except for my parents. Even though I mailed my brother's invite,  my Nana's invite and my parent's invite all at the same time, the USPS seems to have a vendetta against delivering my parent's mail on time.......maybe they will get it tomorrow???

I spent an entire saturday (last saturday) Addressing envelopes, assembling envelops, stamping and sealing....and got all of them DONE at one go! My hand was useless for the rest of the day, as in this age of computers, I type most everything.....

Anyway, I already have 4 "yes" replies and only 2 "rearranging my sock drawers".....and that is because their daughter is getting married the same day as me and they opted to go to her wedding instead (a wise choice :) )

The fact that we are getting replies is exciting because it makes it really really real!!!!! Can't believe it is about 5.5 weeks away!!!!

For anyone calling the hotel to make reservations and get the discount "block" rate...be aware that for whatever reason the hotel is being difficult. They might say they can't find our information in the computer, but rest assured it is there. 

Both my parents and Jim's parents have had to call twice before getting the rooms. We have spoken to the guy in charge SEVERAL times and he assures us it will work fine now, but just be aware, and if you do have problems, let me know! ( kschalles@hotmail.com)

Not much time left and still tons to do! YIKES!

AHHHHHHH!

The last two weeks have been CRAZY!!!!!

My parents have been out visiting and helping rebuild my rotten front porch since July 24th. It is looking wonderful, but taking much longer than we thought it would! We are all exhausted from working sun up till sun down in the heat (91 degrees yesterday) and mom and dad are itching to get home. Hopefully dad is finishing it as I type this!

In addition to that major project, I have been planning the block party for my block (I am the block captain for our block watch!) which is August 23rd. I had to fill out all the paperwork and get the permit and now I need to organize the food and flyers and stuff....YIKES!

This morning I woke up and thought...oh my goodness! I think our catering packet was due yesterday! I found the packet and sure enough, it was due yesterday!!! I immediately flipped out and then contacted the caterer, who totally understood and said if I can mail it by friday, all will be well with the world. (We haven't even filled it out yet!) PHEW!

I also need to look through all my other paperwork to make sure I have any payments or paperwork for other vendors taken care of this week! YIKES!

Jim and I will be married in TWO MONTHS! I can't believe it! I am so excited!

The invitations are at the printer and I have the envelopes already so hopefully I will be able to get those ready to mail out in the next week! YIKES!

We have a venue for the rehearsal dinner, check!

Hotel is blocked off, check!

Tux stuff is picked out...guys, get your tuxes! Check!

Final dress fitting is next week, check!

Billy, I really hope you have that sound system ready!

still need to figure out the bouquet thing and the exact details of the ceremony, but otherwise, we are looking good!

AHHHHHHH! I am officially in freak out zone!
