ER advice

If you're in the ER waiting to be seen because of difficulty breathing, do not be outside smoking when your name is called.

Butterflies?

Is anyone else starting to get really nervous about the wedding? No? Just me? Yikes.

Let me get one thing straight...I am by no means worried about marrying JM. (You can relax, sweetie). It's more about everything getting done and turning out alright. I keep telling myself that come next Friday (OMG, next Friday), I will care less about all those little details and all the other things I've been worried about. Yet somehow, anxiety gets the best of me.

On a VERY uplifting note, all of the 10-day forecasts are showing next Friday to be sunny with a high of 60. It may be a little chilly, so make sure you dress for the weather! And yes, I will be obsessively checking every single weather website for the next 218 hours.

Hard at work?

Yesterday while I was hard at work on a Saturday (and yes, I really was hard at work yesterday), this is what the rest of my apartment was doing.

Harp Music for the Wedding

I'm trying to kill the last half hour at work so I found the songs that our harpist is going to be playing so you can hear it...on the harp. Enjoy!

Beautiful fall days

First and foremost, my matron of honor had her baby on Tuesday! Yay!!! Gabriel Michael was 8 pounds, 2 ounces, and perfect. Both mom and baby are doing wonderfully.

Today, JM and I went and filled out the application for our marriage license and got all of that taken care of.

Yesterday we had our meeting with the photographer to finalize all of the details. If you haven't checked her out, you should, I think she's incredibly talented and can't wait to have her shoot our wedding! Here's her blog:

Tomorrow is our engagement photo session and if the weather is anything like today, my world will be wonderful! I'm going to Studio 2000 earlier in the afternoon because Michelle does my hair MUCH better than I do! Then JM, Kodi and I are meeting Erin at Coxhall Gardens for the photo shoot. Kodi is SUPER excited. Here's the Coxhall Garden website:


We're also meeting our new harpist tomorrow. The one we had originally signed with had a conflict come up, so she got us another woman. I'm excited to meet with her and see what ideas she has. This is her site, I think you can listen to some of her music:


That's it for now!
