Wedding Stuff

Last night I went to my mom's after work to see the silk bouquet I had ordered and check out some other things she has picked up. I took out a couple things from the bouquet and then we wrapped it with black ribbon and hot glued it. It looked pretty....it'll do :)
I ordered our shoes this morning. Our computer at home took a crap and that really sucks. I was planning on opening the shoe sizer I had on our computer and making it full size and putting the boys' feet up to it so I could figure out what size they are. So since that didn't work I just ordered mine and Josh's shoes. I'm wearing all red converse and he's wearing some steel toed Doc's. Yay for shoes we'll actually wear again. Makes me feel better buying both of them knowing we can use them again.

My mom emailed me her list of things to do last night.
I figured I'd share that...or just document for myself.
