Countdown: 113 Days! - S*^t Brides Say

My colleague Melissa just sent this to me via WeddingChannel.com. It's hilarious...and true!

Enjoy!

Countdown: 114 Days – Wedding Shoes!

Next up on my "Wedding Day Apparel List" – Shoes!

I’m all over the board on this decision. I can’t decide if I want to wear heels or flats – or heels for the ceremony and flats for the reception. I love the sparkly shoes, but I’ve found that unless you spend a ridiculous amount of money, they end up looking kind of cheap.

I have my first getting in March, so I need to have them picked out by then! Here are some I have my eye on:

Vera Wang



Kate Spade



Ellen Tracy



Madden Girl (in silver)

 

Nina

Any suggestions?!?!

Countdown: 117 Days - Carmichael Shower

I have A LOT to update you on! Our Christmas "break" was filled with wedding planning. We covered cake tasting, reception dinner tasting, floral and tabletop viewings, rehearsal dinner reservations, hair & make up trial, ceremony music and more! This means some of you (Laura Korbecki) will be happy to hear I have a lot of content for the blog!

First up, our wedding shower hosted by Matt's Mom's side of the family, and it was so much fun to celebrate with all the Carmichael's in Muncie, IN. 

Our little helper

Matt's new golf bag organizer!



  


Two of my bridesmaids who live in Indy also made the drive up to celebrate with us!

 The family!

We also celebrated the upcoming arrival of our niece Caroline! Baby stuff is so much fun!

Thanks to everyone who was able to make the shower - we had a blast and can't wait to see you all in St. Louis!!

Countdown: 121 Days - Happy Birthday Luke!

Today my favorite little man and nephew Luke turns EIGHT!!

I cannot believe how fast time has flown. I remember the day my sister told us she was going to have her first baby. We were on our big family vacation at the beach and it was one of the few moments that just our immediate family was hanging out in our condo. All of the sudden she just blurted out - ok so I want to tell you before everyone else comes back that I'm pregnant! Of course we were all ecstatic about the news.

Luke has been such an amazing part of my life since the day he was born! He's my first nephew, my first godchild and I've loved watching him grow from a happy, chunky baby to a smart, athletic second grader. Next up on his list - Ring Bearer!

Happy Birthday Luke! I love you!
