Just when I thought it was too good to be true..

So, I really thought that everything wedding planning wise was going off without a hitch...until today. It seems like the place for my reception called me TODAY after cashing my check in FEBRUARY to tell me that they are double booked. They asked me if my invitations were already sent out, and if I could start my reception later. Now, instead of having the place available for me to set up on Friday night, it wouldn't be available until 3pm on Sat. So, now I am looking for another place to have my reception. I know it is tacting, but if I have to change my locale for my reception, like it seems I might, I will send change of venue cards to all invitees. I have no other idea of how to make everyone aware of the change, if it ends up needing to be changed.

To my Penguin



With wedding planning in full swing, and approximately 9 weeks until we say our "I Dos" I just wanted to take the time so share some clipart that expresses how I feel about my man. He doesn't even read my blogs, he thinks I am on the computer too much, but anyway...this is what I have collected over the nearly 3 years we have been together.


























Happy Memorial Day





This Memorial Day, try to take time out of your picnics and family festivities and give thanks to those who gave their life and limbs to keep us safe. Also give thanks to those who were fortunate to come home to their families. I know that I am thankful everyday...my fiance is a veteran and I thank him every day for his service to his Country. When I first met my Penguin, he was in the Air Force. Once together I have stood by him in the Army Reserves and then the National Guard, and even had to endure rumors of deployment. While I am thankful that he did not have to go, I would still be standing by his side when he left and then returned again.

WOW

Next week is the end of May...what does that mean...MY WEDDING IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER! Holy moly Batman! So much to do and so little time. Wedding invitations go out this week, and then it is down to buying a strapless bra, and paying everyone else off. I better look into the honeymoon stuff or we won't be having one...argh...

I Just died in your arms tonight...

Must have been some kind of kiss..oh baby was it ever...
OK, not that kind of kiss, but... yesterday I decided to let myself splurge and buy some candy, but not just normal candy. As you know I am on a mission to lose weight, so I try to be very strict with what I eat. Anyway, Walmart sells the best candy ever...and it's made for WW. I will tell you about the 3 that I bought.




You know the commerical, sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't. got nuts, don't. This candy tastes just like a Mounds...and you can eat it guilt free..it is only 1 point. I know that I will definately be taking these on my honeymoon!




These are absolutely scrumptious! They taste just like Again, these are absolutely amazing, and only 1 point! YAY for Whitmans!

The third candy that I tried was Joe's pick.

While I don't have another brand of candy to compare it too, it was still absolutely amazing! Another win!
Whitmans and WW FTW!
