103 degrees
Posted by Stacey under Wedding
That was the temperature this afternoon at 4:30 when I took a patient outside to the playground. It would have felt a lot better if I had on shorts instead of work clothes!! Hope everyone is enjoying the dog days of summer.
Wedding plans for the week are going great. The end of last week and the weekend were packed full of all sorts of planning. We finished up our invitations and got them mailed out. I have become very good friends with my local postal lady and appreciate her help so much. I have come to the conclusion that the United States Postal Service and the companies that make wedding invitations are in cahoots! I find it a little strange that the postal service makes a fifty nine cent stamp…….which just so happens to be what every wedding invitation cost! Of course they make the stamp really cute so you forget how much more it cost and you forget about the fit you were about to pitch over the price as soon as they show it to you. Yes, I’m a sucker for stuff like that-if it’s cute then it may be worth a little extra. Anyway, the stamp looks great, they match the invitation and they were well worth the extra price! I think you will agree when it shows up in your mailbox!
I had my bridal portraits made early Saturday morning. Many, many, many thanks to my mom and to my cousin Melissa for helping me look my best. I’ve seen my sisters bridal portrait hang in my parents house for many years now and I really felt the pressure on Saturday to take a good picture! I’m really hoping my mom will go with the one of my sticking my tongue out at the camera!!!! I also had the chance to sit down with my florist this weekend and finalize all the flowers. I can hardly wait to see what it will all look like. After a very full few days I came back to Fort Worth on Sunday and Greg and I ended up moving more of my stuff to his house. It was a busy weekend but very productive.
This next weekend Greg and I are headed back to Salado. My sister and her family will be arriving on Friday and we will headed down on Saturday. My parents church will be hosting a shower for us on Sunday afternoon and I am thrilled for several people I grew up with to finally get to me Greg! It should be a fun weekend!
Enjoy the heat!!!!

I know what you mean. We actually hit 80 degrees today in Chicago! Time to turn on the AC.

It’s so great to read these comments.
After watching the three of you grow up together, I am so thankful you are still friends!
