I
am
getting
MARRIED
in
just
9………..YES……….9
days!!!!!!!
I am so very happy and excited. I am so very happy and excited. Did I mention I am so VERY happy and excited????
Shane and I are getting married HERE on Saturday, November 25th!!!! 9 days!!! I know I said that already!!! Anyway…..been making a ton of phone calls and went to try on a dress last night. It fit BEAUTIFULLY!!! I need to lose like 5 pounds the next week so I can breathe easier in it but that won’t be hard since I can barely eat these days!!! Plus I have been running my butt off literally on the treadmill. I am only going to be in it for MAYBE a couple hours so it’s PERFECT!!!! I promise to post some photos of the special day! Oh and SERIOUS THANKS to Elly & Katie for helping me with the dress situation…..Katie….you are a dream for sharing your beautiful gown. I can’t believe how stunning it is! Thanks to you many others who offered help with finding me a dress too! What a blessing!
I got a phone call from my sister Deanna last night and look what she made for me to wear with my dress!!! I love it sis! Thanks so much! This was VERY thoughtful of you! They are gorgeous and they match perfectly!! Be sure and click on the image for a better view! I was going to look for something similar on Saturday but this is one thing I can scratch off my list! YAY!!!!
I am soooooooooo excited that Shane’s girls are going to be here from Mississippi for Thanksgiving and the wedding! I am so happy that they will get to meet all of my family. I am so happy that all 5 of our little girls will get to spend some quality time together. I am so excited about these little dresses my sister found in Utah for all our girls to wear. How beautiful will they all be in these? I can’t even tell you how much I look forward to browsing thru photos of all our little princesses!!!
My girls will be with their Dad this weekend. This is a GOOD thing. I have all day Saturday to take care of the last minute details. BUSY BUSY but FUN FUN!!!! I have an apt tonight at ULTA to get my hair colored. I have a nail apt on Saturday. I have been hitting the tanning bed so I don’t look quite so pasty in the dress! I will find a veil this weekend. I have a girl’s night out at Michelle’s on Friday night….a Redline Party for her new book that’s about to get published! YAY! The list goes on but it’s so exciting. I am also busy getting my home reorganized to make room for Shane! I am flying out one-way to MS on Dec. 2nd so I can make the drive back to AZ with him and the Uhaul. We still plan on getting back to Mississippi within a year so we can be close to his girls but I am grateful he will be here while we make that move possible.
Okay…..I know it’s not much of an update but it will have to do!!! Things are CRAZY! Hope everyone is well!

Shanna — I am sooooooooooooo excited for you! To leave the land of the single freaks (and we all know who they are!!)
I’m happy that your dress thing worked out and that you have a lovely sister to make BEAUTIFUL jewelry for your special day!!
So, you’ve got “something borrowed” and “something new” .. . . what will you use for “old” and “blue”?
You deserve the best!
Love ya, girl!
