Sore Dogs

Today Sally, Jami and Janae came down to help KT and myself do some wedding shopping. It was totally fun.... and tiring. My feet are so sore, which is surprising since I wore my tennies. I can see how everything is coming together, though. It's AWESOME! I'm so excited and feel it such a privilege to be Mrs. Justin Bigelow. He's an amazing man that teaches me something new every day.

Update

Well, I was thinking to myself tonight while I was mopping my floor that I've been the biggest slacker with this bloggy thing. I know so many of you our there are hanging onto my every word and waiting for me to spew forth more verbal gold. I can't say I blame you... I have that affect on people.

So, here's the update on what's going on... We finally registered at Bed, Bath & Beyond and Walmart. We still have Target to do, but I think both of us are dragging our feet. I don't know how many of you out there have registered for a wedding, but trust me when I tell you it is seriously the most stressful part of the planning process!! You have to know in a matter of 2 hours how you want to decorate your house, what colors you want, how to compromise with this man you're about to marry, and be truthful (yet sensitive) when he wants to register for a Star Trek collector tin can set. No wonder the divorce rate is so high... it all started with the wedding registry!! *** Just for the record, Justin NEVER wanted that Star Trek collector tin can set.*** He's perfect to shop with. We have the same taste and that definitely makes it easier!!

Also, we got all the rings necessary for this shin-dig to be legit. Yeah, it's fun to show people just so I can put on all the rings that have my name on them. It's the cutest thing ever when I see Justin get all excited about wearing his ring. It makes my little heart go "pitter-patter". He's just so dreamy. hehe... I think I've turned into one of those girls. You know the type... they make you want to slap them because they're so goo-goo eyed over some guy that they've put up on a pedestal. Don't worry, I didn't put Justin on a pedestal... he's just tall.

We also met with my sister Amy about the cake. She's making it and I'm so glad. She does great work and the cake will be special because she's my sister. Actually it could come out looking like a volcano...(hmm.... that's kind of a cool idea....) and I would be so happy because I would know it was made with love.... See what I mean?? "One of those girls!" Anyway, the cake will be a lemon cake with lemon filling. Can you tell Justin and I love lemon? It will be nice with the chocolate alternative. We decided not to go with the fondant. We are going for a butter cream frosting instead. I think it will taste better. Yum.... it's making me hungry.

OH! I almost forgot the best news yet! My wedding dress was delivered today and I'm dying to see it. It was delivered to my sister's house and my parents are bringing it down here tomorrow. I am so freaking giddy, it's even creeping myself out. I have been having nightmares that I get the dress and it looks like a sheep's skin. I don't know what the significance of this is, but it's kind of gross. Maybe I've seen Beowulf one too many times. Who knows?

Other than the wedding, not much is going on here. This weekend my parents are coming down because they're flying out to my sister Kathy's house for Thanksgiving. I'm happy they're going. Kathy will be happy. And Katie and Maggie are coming for the whole weekend. I'm so happy to see them... I miss their guts! Sally, Jami, and Janae are coming, too, on Saturday to help KT and I get prepared for the wedding... I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M GETTING MARRIED IN 30 DAYS!!!! WHAT THE...??? It seems so weird because it doesn't seem weird. I know that doesn't make sense, but that's what it is. ANYWAY, I digress... needless to say, there will be a full house this weekend. Yay! I have no idea what to do next with this wedding! No worries, help is on the way. =)

Election Blues

How sad am I that it's looking like "the other candidate" is going to win the presidential election. I need to get a gun before the 2nd amendment is done away with. I'm not kidding AT ALL when I say that Obama guy seriously scares me. If I wanted to be a socialist, I think I would move to a socialist country. I just don't get it. I really don't.

We're Back

So, I bet everyone thought I had fallen into a ditch somewhere and died. It's been a while since I've been able to visit my blog. Actually, I was getting pretty addicted, so I had to ground myself for a while. Does anyone else ground themselves? I do it all the time... it's like I'm still living at my parent's house. Haahahaaa.... so funny!

Oh, by the way... I still have a stiff neck. I make Justin massage it at night. He's so handy to have around. I love him!!!
