Yay it's Wednesday! This is one of my favorite blogging days because I get to share all sorts of little tidbits.
{1} I'm LOVING that I get to have lunch at a little bistro here in Sikeston today :) I always get the dumplings and salad. Plus, this place has the yummiest honey butter --- DELISH! While there, we're also going to plan a bridal shower and bach party.
Speaking of, do YOU have any great ideas (or suggestions for what to stay away from?) for this shower? I have actually never thrown a bridal shower, so I'm looking for ideas :)
{2} I'm LOVING all the ideas I got for my wedding at the bridal show this weekend. J and I have actually been engaged almost two years and haven't done a lot of planning yet, because we bought a house and did some projects (like putting up a fence for the horses) immediately to save money and utilize the land. So now we're finally getting ready to start making plans. I love daisies, so I think that will be my theme --- is that OK for a September wedding?
{3} I'm LOVING that my fridge is so full of leftovers, I don't think I'll have to cook again (other than maybe sides) for the rest of the week.
{4} I'm LOVING my clean pantry. Now I can actually find things. And I'm thinking February may be another only-buy-the-essentials-at-the-grocery-store month :)
{5} I'm LOVING all of you great followers! Whenever I see a new comment in my email, I get a huge smile on my face.
{6} I'm LOVING that I'm getting my booty back to the gym today. I've got to start training for that 5K soon.
{7} I'm LOVING that while I was working late yesterday, J took the time to install some lights under the countertops so I can see better while doing the dishes and preparing the food. Such a great surprise :)
{8} As always, I'm LOVING this sweet guy. He's my everything.
#1 It's your wedding and whatever you want, go for it! Don't waste anytime at all worrying about what others think.
ReplyDelete#2 Getting comments always feels good. Like people actually are reading what you have to say.
#3 I'm loving that you have 1587 Swagbucks. LOL
One of my favorite ideas for showers is 'soon to be married trivia' where you put the B&G in front of the room & ask them questions, like 'If the Bride could hide any bill from the Groom every month, which bill?' or 'name the city your soon to be spouse was born in?' a favorite is also 'what made you fall in love with the bride & what made you fall in love with the groom'
ReplyDeleteHand out sheets with all the questions to the guests to fill out. Give them 5 minutes-ish. Then ask the bride and groom the questions. Give them either a piece of paper or a tiny dry erase board they have to write the answer to. If you want a better explanation & this make no sense let me know.
Also daisy, are still in season in September so your florist should have no issue finding quality ones from the US.
I always love having an organized pantry! and daisies is totally okay for a September wedding.. plus YOU'RE The bride so you can do whatever you want and it's okay ;)
ReplyDeleteIts so sweet how you always end your "What I'm loving" post with the fact that you love your man.
ReplyDeleteThanks for playing along!
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of those lights!
Found your blog from Stephanie at Many Reasons to Smile and decided I should follow, since your organized pantry made your blog. I feel silly posting house stuff, but it makes me happy to know others do too!
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree with April, it's YOUR wedding, do what YOU want! For my wedding shower, I did a "display" shower, which meant I didn't spend time opening gifts: they were all displayed with cards on large tables, so everyone could see. It left more time for me to mingle with my guests instead of being stuck in a chair with my MOH frantically writing down each gift and who it was from.
