Wedding Favors
Picking up tomorrow
I'm picking up my favours tomorrow! I'm meeting my friend for lunch and getting them then. I will have to have to refrain from eating them because they look so yummy!! They are heart biscuits with purple icing and white writing. I can't post pics at the moment because they aren't on the computer. Will upload soon as I get them in my hands tomorrow.

DIY Wedding
Only 5 days left!!
I can't believe our wedding is only 5 days away! I have so much left to do. I'm going to write a to do list for each day so I make sure I get everything done. It doesn't help although its great that I have a job interview on Monday. I hope I get it. It will take a lo of stress of FH after the wedding if I do and I will be very bored otherwise.
Anyway must go write that to do list! |
