Shoes


So we found this AMAZING pair of Red Jessica Simposn Neona Peep Toe Pumps from Macys (more like ankle breaking stilletos then pumps) that were going to be PERFECT!!!! But 1) they are $79.00 very sad day, and 2) for some reason I can't get the picture to upload for you to see. So Rachelle and I found these shoes at Payless for $19.99. They aren't my absolute favorite, but they are cute nonetheless

If anyone hears of a shoe sale going on at Macy's or knows anyone who works there that can pull in a favor I would love you forever. I want to get that pair from Macys and wear them underneath my wedding dress. Wouldn't that look as Katie loves to use the term "Stellar"?

Have I told you how much I'm loving going shopping lately with my various bridesmaids. They've all been so helpful in one way or another. I really do have the best friends!!!

Love,

Found Heather's Top for the wedding

Since my baby sister is going to be well into her pregnancy by the time the wedding comes we decided to get her a white Maternity top. My friend Laura and I went shopping today and we found this top. I think it will go perfectly. We also found the Banana Republic tops on sale for only 36.99. Way better then the $56 orignially!!! We also found the red necklaces to go with the outfits, so I would say that was a productive day of shopping!!

Bride's maids outfit


I'm thinking this top (or something similar since this one is $56) with a red chunky bead necklace, black pencil skirt and red high heels.

For the guys we are thinking black pants, white shirt, red tie and black flip flops....I like the girls to be classier then the guys. haha.

Here it goes

Okay since I've been asked to start my own blog here it is. Life is very exciting right now. Planning a wedding is so much fun, but at the same time sooo much stress. It was much easier 10 years ago because my parents paid for almost everything. This time round not so much. But Ricky and I are having so much fun putting everything together. Yesterday I was over at his office talking with his sister Maria and her best friend Andrea. We were going over all the wedding details, when in walked Grayson, who I SWEAR! should start his own wedding planning business. This man has a million and one ideas on everything weddings from the engagement ring, to the proposal, to receptions and centerpieces, even honeymoons. He has been such a big help to Ricky with picking out the engagement ring and planning the honeymoon. But anyways, he came in and we were talking about what all needed to be done to the backyard to get it ready for the wedding. He said we should check out his in-laws backyard, he said it is gorgeous and well maintained and they love having people throw their receptions in the backyard. So we all hopped into Grayson's truck and went over to his in-laws. And this is what we saw.



Isn't it perfect?? It is going to be amazing I'm so excited...and it saves us about $700, so even better. I'll keep you posted as we decided on more thing.

Love,
