Bridesmaid Shoes


Here is a picture of my bridesmaids' dress. We haven't finalized shoes yet, but I was thinking some strappy gold sandals would be perfect. What do you all think? Can you tell I have trouble making decisions????

I was thinking something like these . . . but without the J. Crew price tag. Any ideas on where we can find cute, inexpensive, shoes like these?




Answering Questions

I have gotten a few questions in comments and I never know how to answer them, do I go back and comment or do I comment on the other person's blog . . . I never know.

So in answer to some of the questions:

Our big day is September 13, 2008 - I have a little over a month left but SO much to do! So I am setting little tasks for myself every day. I am also writing thank you notes like there is no tomorrow . . . I had to order more stationary!

Yes, my Daddy was nice enough to give me my Grandmommy's entire set of silver with her serving pieces as well. I can't believe it! I made Fiance hide it in his closet! I feel like my other grandmother, my Nana. She and my Poppy had stuff hidden all over their house!

Do you have any more questions that I might have neglected to answer? If so, I'm sorry, so ask in the comments and I will definitely answer!

For the Reception

Its getting down to the wire friends, so I'm sorry if I am not stopping by your blogs as often as I usually do. Just know that I love you and I will try to catch up as much as I can. I ordered these for the cocktails at the wedding reception. I got them in ivory and had our new monogram put on them. What do you think? I love them.

Our Silver Pattern


Since I have posted about my china pattern, I decided I would go ahead and post about my silver pattern. At a shower a few weeks ago my Daddy also sent a gift. I opened it and it was my Grandmommy's (his mother's) sterling silver. The pattern is "Prelude." I love it because we always used to have really big family dinners and lunches at my grandparents house. Every time I use it, I will think of those times and how happy they were.

Lands' End at Sear's

I had my lovely pink and green shower this weekend! It was very nice and it was fun to be with friends. My Mom was so sweet; everything she gave me was pink and green. I opened the box and it was over-flowing with my favorite colors.

She found these napkins at Sear's! She said she wasn't sure if I would like them, so she only bought four, of course I loved them! So we went back yesterday and bought more so that I would have 12. The picture does not do them justice.
P.S. They are on sale right now!

Checking in

Sorry for my random posting lately. I had two friends staying with me this week and I was busy playing hostess. It was so fun and it was just like having roommates again. We watched Sex and the City, drank wine, did our hair and make-up and hit the town.

I am headed out of town this weekend. My bridesmaids are having a shower for me tomorrow! I hope you all have great weekends!
