Dream On

After 9 months of planning, we are officially at the 2 month mark! Time flies!

For as long as I can remember I have been a very vivid dreamer, with dreams that tend to have very odd story lines. My dreams have ranged from my dog being kidnapped by a tribe of cave dwelling trolls to a very sweet obese couple asking me to marry them. Weird, I know! Steve thinks a therapist would have a field day analyzing my dreams. Since getting engaged, I have had wedding dreams on almost a nightly basis. It occurred to me the other day that I should be documenting my dreams, and for your entertainment I will share them with you.

 Here is a collection of my most memorable dreams yet:

1. My mom changed the ceremony location last minute to a funeral home. When I asked my mom how guests would know where to go she said not to worry, they would figure it out. To my surprise, they all showed up. When it came time for the reception, only my parents and a family friend showed up. So sad.
2. Before the wedding we were setting up at the Phoenix and they brought the buffet food out. My mom was excited to try the food and ended up eating ALL of it. At least we knew the food was good!
3. My mom surprised me by making me a new veil. She wouldn't let me see it, but while walking down Main Street in my wedding dress I could see my shadow. The veil was a bird cage with a mini top hat on top. To make matters worse it was red!
4. The reception was held in a Bollywood themed reception hall. My brother organized it and was very proud.
5. I got to the wedding all dressed up with everything going perfectly and realized that I forgot to mail the invitations. Oooops!
6. My parents followed us to St. John on our honeymoon since we have 4 extra bedrooms. Our villa ended up having a giant furniture warehouse in the basement. Other then that, our trip was great!

I know there are plenty more that aren't coming to mind, so a follow up post might be in order!

65 days...

As we quickly approach the 2 month mark, I'm reaching a lack of motivation. I'm not sure if it's the nice weather or that I'm officially weddinged (is that a word?) out. Steve and I are at the point where we are ready for the wedding to be here and  to enjoy our time in the sun on St. John. Luckily I only have 2 more projects to do until crunch time (early June). Unfortunately, getting those things done during vacation has not been happening. I've found it much more enjoyable eliminating the invasive Japanese knotweed from my front yard. I think that right there proves my "weddinged out" theory. The only thing keeping my slightly motivated is the 1-4 reply cards arriving in the mail daily! Keep them coming people, I have craft project to finish!

Here is a preview to some of my FINAL wedding projects all made from leftover supplies and things found in nature:

Seating Chart Tree made from sticks and paper roses.  This will be much more exciting when the place cards are attached.

Just a few pieces to my ceremony decor.
