Wedding Gift Registry
I feel soooo guilty!
I finally started a gift registry after my FMIL asked me to. I have a shower coming up in less then a month and she wants me to have a registry set up so people will know what to get for us.
So here is where my problem lies...everything is sooo expensive. I am full of guilt having such expensive items on my list. But they are the things that i need. Like bedsheets, i need new bedsheets but the cheapest that they had were $100. Holy, thats a lot of money for bed sheets. My dog sleeps in bed with me for goodness sake, she does not need anything that fancy! lol! So the majority of my registry is the cheapest one of whatever I need, and towels (but I love towels) Does anyone else have this problem? I know that others are not on the budget that I am on but still I dont want them to think that i am trying to take advance of them. Erg soooo much guilt! |

Ask a Question
Music...
What songs are on your "Must Play" list for the reception? I was thinking about this the other day and there are soooo many song that I want to hear that night. I thought that i would ask you ladies what songs are a absolute must. Also what songs are you putting on your "Do Not" play list?
I am looking forward to seeing what is on everyone's lists. |

Just because...
Hes so sweet!
I have been pretty bummed out lately. I have been trying sooo hard to lose weight and my clothes seem to be getting tighter. I dont get it I am dropping pounds and everyone says I have lost weight but my clothes are tighter? Whats that about. Anyways i had a minor melt down yesterday when i tried to get dress and nothing I put on did up.
So he came home on his lunch break to bring me a coffee, I thought that was really nice of him...I was in no mood to make my own coffee today. He left and 30 minutes later the doorbell rang. He sent me flowers to cheer me up. The card was soooo sweet too! These are the flowers that he sent....they are sooo pretty! :) it does make me feel better, and makes me not want to eat all the chocolate I can get my hands on! |

Table numbers...Almost Done!
I Started my table number vases today. I am really happy with the why they are turning out. I would have finished them but i ran out of the glue I am using. They are very very easy to make as well, and very inexpensive. whoooa another thing to cross off the list.

What do you think?
I finished my aisle runner today...I drew it free hand so its not perfect...and im not to sure about it. its not half as nice as all of the others I have seen on here. I am just impatient and didnt want to wait until I could get out to staples and have it blown up. So I need honest opinions please. Thanks ladies.
