So lovely!

Bridesmaid Weekend

Erica, Heather, Jenn, and I went to David's today to pick out dresses. I found it hilarious that I let them pick ANY style in silver, pewter, or wine, and Erica and Heather got the same dress and Jenn got the same one only sleeveless. Fascinating! Waiting to see what Kelly picks.

Then we went to drinks and dinner at The Elbow Room roof, which was awesome.

In other news, I tried on my dress and there is now a three inch gap in the back instead of one and a half! So we did a two mile walk. :) Now it's time for some real hard work to make this dress fit. Motivate me!

Weekend Excitement!

I went home to Little Falls and made the decorative board for the escort cards. It came out really well! And this coming weekend, Erica, Heather, and Jenn are coming over to go dress shopping- fun! Too bad Kelly is in Indiana! Apparently I'm breaking all sorts of unspoken "rules" by having too many bridesmaids for the number of guests or something? I dunno, I'd make everyone stand up there with me just to make myself less nervous!

We also keep updating our registries. You get so sucked into it when you're in the store. Then you realize later, dang! That's expensive! What are we going to do with $450 worth of salad bowls? (i don't even like salad). But it was fun looking, nonetheless. Hopefully after this weekend, I'll have pictures to post of bridesmaid dresses.

A new picture

This picture makes me laugh because of the utter disdain on Matt's face. Yes, I plunked the flowers on his head and nabbed a picture before he really knew what I was doing. And now it's here for all to see. (insert evil laugh here. because that's just about standards.)

Crepes!

So I'm totally obsessed with crepes. I bought myself this great new crepe maker/griddle and I am in love with it! It even came with one of those T shaped spreaders. There are a few black raspberry bushes down the road and every summer I look forward to grabbing a few. Today I made crepes and had them with black raspberries and vanilla bean ice cream. Oh, so very yummy! Definitely a keeper.

Janus!

I have decided that though it may seem strange, Janus is the perfect topper for our cake. Matt loves that song "The origins of love" from Hedwig and the Angry Inch. It made me think of the Roman god Janus, who btw, is the namesake of January, the month in which we sill get married. So, I've asked my friend Kelly (matron of honor!) to sculpt us a Janus figure for the cake.

Oh, it's different, all right, but all kinds of symbolic!

Mirror!

I bought this mirror for $2 at the Noah Webster House tag sale. I spent $7 to get plaster and some paint. Now I have this awesome gold mirror! I should have taken a before picture. It was missing a huge chunk of plaster and was terribly faded. Very cool!

First Day

Today I found this awesome idea for messages from our wedding guests. Mom is making a guest book quilt, which I can't wait to see, but this idea is amazing, too! Maybe we'll do both. The invites are all designed, which is one thing down- I can't wait to invite people so I can make a seating chart. Yes, I'm a dork, but an organizing, party-planning dork. I would be a wedding planner if people wouldn't tell me what to do. :)

The invites aren't very exciting, but I designed them myself out of one piece of cardstock per invite. Very cool. And Matt made the website: www.stigermock.us , which is also a lot of fun!

I already made my bouquet out of these amazing fabric flowers. Love it!
