300 Days and Counting...

Many of my fans have been encouraging me to post again. And when I say fans, I mean my parents and Shannon McCarthy-Antinori. And when I say encouraging, I mean harassing and/or begging. So, here I am...posting for my fans...

Our wedding is exactly 300 days away. To be more exact, our wedding is 9 months, 3 weeks and 5 days away. It seems like forever, but I remember when the count down was at 400+ days! After the start of the new year, we will work on getting more of the "little" things done. We still need to find a florist and order a cake. We need to book a limo service that will be wheelchair accessible. We need to also find a hotel near White Eagle. Then registering, planning a rehearsal dinner, getting invitations, choosing music...I guess we have more than I realized...

As you know, I have my dress already and found out that I need to get in for my first fitting 3-4 months prior to the big day. I have not wanted to be one of those crazy brides that works out like a fool, but I have decided that I need to do something since I generally don't like how I have been looking in recent pictures. I'll start off with working out on the equipment in our building and using the Wii Fit again. This will all begin over Christmas break. I'll keep you posted...

The bridesmaids' dresses have been chosen...officially. I had an idea of one that my sister tried on in August, but I recently began thinking that it wasn't fancy enough. My sister graciously agreed to try some different dresses on when she was home over Thanksgiving break and we found a beautiful dress that should be flattering on everyone!



The dress I am holding up shows the color, truffle. My sister is modeling the dress itself. Doesn't it look great on her? And doesn't she look thrilled?

I'll write more as more developments are made...happy holidays to all!

O.k, so I'm a bit disappointed that you don't consider me a fan, cuz I am. I check in almost everyday to see if you've posted.
The dress is very pretty, and I love the color. As for Lizzie's enthusiasm...well, she IS showing more than I imagined!
Good luck with your after holidays work out torture.

Yep, me too...though I wouldn't want to be in the harrassed category. Good choices & Lizze does look great..perhaps the photographer should've given her a heads up to smile for the camera. :o)

oops - I wouldn't want to be lumped in the group that harasses you.
