11 months!!!

So time flies!!

Something I have learned more and more lately. Now that we have a count down going till we get married, I am noticing weeks and months FLY by so fast!! It's hard to believe its been almost 4 months since we got engaged with a beautiful ring....that I broke!!

That's right folks, I have the strength to bend the claws that hold the diamond in my ring without even noticing it. Seriously!! Who does that? Me apparently!! We took my ring it to the store and the one sales lady was like "You got to take the ring off BEFORE you punch him!" We laugh. Then they say "you must have hit it very hard to do this!" I think "Shouldn't I remember doing that? Shouldn't I remember thinking 'oh crap my precious ring!!!' or something?" Apparently not.....so it was hard to hand over my ring....and then she told me it would be gone for ten days!! I asked Tom very nicely to buy me a new one....and led him over to the e-ring part of the store. He wasn't quite up for that.

So then Tom, my mom and I headed to the Bay to pick up gifts for a wedding shower for Pete and Jenn. Tom left my mom and I and headed to the jewelery to buy me a stand-in ring!! So cute!! So I am no longer not visibly engaged...still taken my friends!! I never was a big jewelery person but having to say good-bye to my ring and have another ring on my finger has made me realize how much I LOVE the ring Tom bought me!! It's perfect for me!! Just like him!!!

so 11 months left and lots to do. With mom and Krista down this weekend we talked a lot of wedding Saturday night and talked through some great centrepiece ideas. So I think that might be the next thing I will try to nail down and figure out 100%. I am hoping to finish the memorial candles this coming weekend. I have bought what I hope will work as a card box we just need to stain it and figure out how to put the slit in it. I am excited for that project. So lots to do OBVIOUSLY! Also trying to decide if I want to be brave and make my own pocketfolds for invites, or if I even want to do pocketfolds......so we'll see....and you may too one day!
