Well Grandma reminded me that I haven’t blogged in a while so I guess I should get it updated and BOY do I have a lot to blab about! I started this at 10:06 a.m. on Monday morning. I will post what time it is when I finally finish and get it posted!

With my new duties at work, my days are cram packed. I can’t believe the morning is already half over. It is a little more stressful but I enjoy it! My boss has really let me get involved with some great things and I am very thankful. Our Emergency Response Team has come together nicely. Cameron is paying for all of us on the team to get our Hep C vaccination so that is pretty cool. I’ve really even started to enjoy the safety committee even more. Some of the employees are even willing to talk to me about things they would like to see change. It’s nice to know they trust me to take it to the safety committee for them! We have a new HSE (Health, Safety, & Environmental) guy that comes down once a month. He is much better at his job than the last guy.

One thing that I REALLY am enjoying more and more that I get to handle is all the event planning. We had “Fajita Friday” last week and held a salsa contest. It is mostly a team building thing. They can’t enter the contest by themselves. They have to have a team mate. We’ve done a salsa contest and a chili cook off. So if anyone has any ideas for neat things like that (for grown men… most probably won’t participate in a bake off) then please let me know! We are really working hard for a better attitude around here. Some people are just grumps!

The house is looking great. We worked REALLY hard on getting it finished before Stacy’s Scentsy party! (BTW 10% off in August is almost over!!). Everything was in place and looked fabulous… just as long as we kept the door to Sierra’s old room shut. That room was a disaster zone! Guess I shouldn’t say was because technically it still is.

My first Scentsy party was a huge success. I guess it was kind of cheating because I knew everyone at the party really well. But it was still nice to get the experience and the dreaded first out of the way. The new fall/winter scents and catalogs are in and I’m very excited. Every month, they release a new warmer and scent. This is the warmer of the month for September. I can’t wait to get one ordered!!!

I can’t believe that this Friday will be our 6 month anniversary! Time sure does fly!

I’ve started helping teach the 3 and 4 year olds Bible class at church. The lady that teaches now asked if I would be interested in teaching next semester. I told her I didn’t think I was ready for that just yet. Maybe after a few more semesters of just assisting someone else I would be ready to take that on myself. Now that we have a house, I hope we can start having some devo’s at our house. We don’t really have a youth leader since Denny left and there for a while, there was a big gap in between my youth group and the upcoming youth group and weren’t any teens. The preacher’s daughter and one of her really good friends got baptized this past week. I have a teen study book just for girls that I am going to do an in-depth study on the book myself and I hope to start a “girls only” study group. Maybe that would be a class I could teach on Wednesday nights? I always loved our girl’s class when I was in high school.

Well I think I am done blabbering. It is officially 4:03 p.m. and I am ready to post!

It has been too long since I’ve last blogged! Where do I begin?!!?

The 4th of July was too much fun. I was really glad to get to see Randi and McKayla. I think they get sweeter every time I see them. Even Randi gives me a million hugs. We cooked out on the grill all weekend, popped our own fireworks, went to Firecracker Fandango, and watched the fireworks downtown. Very, very busy and over way too quickly!

We still haven’t moved into the house yet. Our lease is up on July 31 but we can stay another month if we need to. We just pay extra for the month rather than re-signing the lease. But I think we could be in before the end of the month… everyone pray! And since I know you are all so concerned about it, just like I am, my new dining room table is STILL sitting at Furniture Row… pitiful.

Dewayne bought a new truck… and he definitely needed one. He ended up with this 2007 2500 4x4 Dodge Diesel. I’m really glad we bought it. I’m not crazy about the idea of having another car payment but it is better than having to spend all the money to get his fixed.

People think I am exaggerating when I talk about Daisy and how obnoxious she is in bed. She is so rotten! She sleeps between us every night with her head on the pillow with ALLLL the blankets wrapped around her. So, I woke up the other morning and took a picture!!!!!!

See her tiny little head buried in all those blankets?! Yes, she sleeps like this EVERY night!!

Dewayne’s sister got me hooked on the Twilight series. I’m almost finished with New Moon and I’ve only had the books for a week. I’m really dragging out the end of New Moon because the movie doesn’t come out until November 20th! I will be 22 by then!!! Are they TRYING to kill me?!!? I’m afraid to start the NEXT book because they haven’t even started filming on it! I will surely go insane before they get them all filmed!

Dewayne really wants to take a vacation soon. We will see!!!

Our weekend was packed full of nothing but work! We went to mom and dads and did some work over there til about 9:00 on Saturday. Sunday, we went to church, had lunch, came home and cleaned (TONS of laundry, spot cleaned the carpet, cleaned the kitchen) went and worked at mom and dad’s some more, and went grocery shopping. I thought weekends were for being LAZY??!?! No one told me this before I got married!!!

Still no word on when we get to move. I had REALLY wanted to be in the house by this coming weekend because a) Dewayne has lots of family coming in for a wedding and we wanted to have more room so more people could stay with us and b) my dining room set is just sitting at the furniture store collecting dust in their warehouse waiting to be delivered. Sooooo disappointing!

I am on the Emergency Response Team at work since I am CPR certified. We haven’t been given our assignments yet but I REALLY hope I get to be the person that calls 911 and or the person that stands out front to direct the first responders.

EVERYONE should go see The Proposal. I don’t think I have EVER laughed so hard at a movie. My stomach hurt so bad from laughing by the time it was over. Best movie I have seen in a long time!!!

We had such an exciting weekend in Rochester! Dewayne and the boys went fishing Saturday morning while the girls went garage sale-ing in Munday. I didn’t buy anything but it was still fun.

Saturday night was VERY exciting with lots of crazy storms and tornados with very little warning. The tornado sirens went off and the storm hit just a few minutes later. Dewayne’s parents lost a tree but the closest tornado to touch the ground was about 10 miles from their home. The electricity went off around 7:00 and stayed off til the next day around 1:00 p.m. Very eventful and exciting but made the guys miserable. The stormed dumped a BUNCH of rain in a very short amount of time and ruined all hopes of hunting or fishing. All the roads were flooded and too muddy to do anything.

Well our plans to move into the house have been slowed a little. There was an issue with our Landlord’s paperwork for their new house and they have to get that straightened out first!

Incredibly, I started this blog on either Tuesday or Wednesday and it is now Friday. My apologies for the out-dated information!

This was at the Petroleum Museum over the weekend. Dewayne decided he could fit… not so much.
My husband is so goofy!!

He is also very sweet. He cooked dinner for me while I was at church last night! On June 21st, it will be a year ago that he proposed to me. Time goes by SOOO fast!

So once again, we are trying to go to Rochester this weekend. I really think it might happen this time, though!! He is going to ask a guy to cover for him this weekend since he is on call. Munday, TX is having their city wide garage sale and I am going with his aunt Brenda! I’m very excited because I hope to find a bed for our NEW guest bedroom! I’ve decided I am looking for a daybed with a trundle. I think that would be neat to have for the kids. Stacy had one when we were little and we always slept on “squeaky” at Grandma’s house which was a daybed with a trundle.
I believe that is all I have for today!

Dewayne and I had a great weekend! Didn’t make it to Rochester (again!) but we spent the weekend with Dewayne’s cousin. His wife got a job down here so they are moving to Odessa. They came for the weekend to kind of learn where things are.

We went to see Land of the Lost while they were here. It was a lot better than I was expecting it to be! I can’t WAIT for The Proposal with Sandra Bullock to come out. I want to see that movie so bad!!

Friday afternoon, I put our old dining room table for sale on Craigslist. We had it sold and out of the house by 9:00 that evening. It was awesome!! So now our house looks REALLY empty with all the stuff packed and our table gone. Our new table is in but we are waiting til we move to have them deliver it. There is no room at our house now and that will be one less thing to move.

I guess that is all that is new. Our lives are pretty routine with work and all. We both still l-o-v-e our jobs, probably more so for me than him. Just hoping the economy is on its way back up. We are starting to see companies spend a little more now that oil has increased a bit. I always thought economics was so irrelevant to life when I was in high school… boy was I wrong. It should have been MORE than half a semester!

Isn't she cute?! She has grown so much. She is about 9 months old now. I just ordered her some new bows so I will have to get some pictures up of those. She has a nice little collection going on and I think there are like 10 more that I picked out that I want. She is so spoiled!!!

Chance of rain today… praying hard for it!!!

Dewayne and I have officially started packing. We just packed things we know we can live without for a while like some décor, holiday decorations, movies, etc. We took them down to our storage building to get them out of the way. That place was already stacked to the ceiling with wedding gifts and now it looks even worse.

We picked out all the paint colors that we want to do… two bedrooms and two bathrooms. I don’t have a clue what to do with the third bedroom! Maybe I will see if Dad will let me have my bunk bed and stick it in there. I don’t particularly want to do that… but it would be something!

I tackled some MAJOR laundry yesterday and this morning. I HATE laundry with a passion! But I am down to maybe one more load! And then the piles will start all over again…!

Dewayne cooked us a steak last night. He loves to cook out on the grill! He went to the store and bought everything himself! I was so proud of him!

Might attempt Rochester again this weekend! Dewayne is itching to go fishing… so we will see!

I really didn’t get much accomplished this weekend. We WERE going to Rochester but Dewayne ended up having to work on Saturday. I was pretty disappointed. But it was cool since I spent most of the day hanging out with Stacy for her birthday! Letty and I snuck in her house while she was gone to another birthday party and decorated her dining room for her.


And this is my feeble attempt at a cute cake. Who cares what it looked like... it was VERY yummy!

And this is my cute cake on FIRE!


We kept mom and dad’s new puppy this weekend. She is something else!! I’m leaning towards the idea that she might be bipolar. She could be SO sweet at times:

And other times I was ready to go out of my mind! She and Daisy don’t really get along that well. Daisy doesn’t mind playing with her but Carley doesn’t really understand that she bites too hard. Daisy knows when to stop.

Anywho, we are getting ready to start packing up for the move. Stacy still doesn’t have a close date but it will make our lives much easier to start packing the things we just don’t need right now! We even signed our vacating notice for the townhouse! These next two months are going be fast and furious!

Dewayne and I went to look at paint samples on Tuesday night. We are stoked to move in!! Anyway, RIGHT after we left Home Depot, a nice little storm hit. I told Dewayne to drive a little farther south so we could enjoy the rain a little more. (Isn’t it amazing how it can be raining in one place and NOT a quarter of a mile away?!) So we drove around in the old country club here and found mom and dad a new house!!!

It is a 10,177 sq. ft mansion that sits on 6.47 acres with an amazing pool in the back. 3 bedroom (I knew that would be the deal breaker… 10,000 sq ft and only three bedrooms?!?!?) 4 and one half bath, 3 living rooms and fireplaces out the whazoo!!

And they were only asking a cool 2.1 mill! HA! Like I said, mom wasn’t down with the 3 bedroom thing…

We have a lot to do this weekend. I think we are going to Rochester for Dewayne’s cousin’s wedding shower and reception. One of Dewayne’s other cousins wanted to go fishing with him so that will be a nice time for them to have at it! All that fun while we get to babysit Carley…

Fabulous!

We had such a fabulous Memorial Day weekend!! It was so nice to get to spend some time with Randi and McKayla without having to share with anyone else!! And how amazing is it that there wasn’t a single family member missing?! We really enjoyed our time with everyone!!

Dewayne and I are officially banned from holidays. We always spend way too much money. Yesterday, we bought a new 8 seater dining room table, 2 matching bar stools, the matching server and a flat screen TV for our bedroom. Now, I get to find cushions for these chairs! I have this black and white Paris theme I want to do in my dining room! Anyway, this is the table.

With that being said, we bought the table for a reason. We are looking at moving into a rent house in July. It’s not 100% sure that we have it yet, but we are pretty positive it will be ours! We are SO excited! This will really be a huge step for us and we can NOT wait! We will have a front AND back yard… and a garage! It is just SUPER!

At 4:00 a.m. Saturday morning, I was jolted awake by Dewayne jumping out of bed and yelling at me to give him his gun (it was in my nightstand drawer from when he was out of town one night). I handed it to him and he raced down the stairs. I was so scared! He didn’t even tell me what was going on. Dewayne yanked the front door open with his gun drawn and in his underwear.

Apparently these two (not so bright) guys had beaten on our door so loudly it woke him up. They saw a car parked in front of our townhouse and decided that the owner of the car lived in our apartment. Boy, were they wrong!

And me… I am upstairs this whole time still without a clue. I peeked out our bedroom window but all I could see was a taxi. I heard the door shut and one of the two guys said, “DID HE HAVE A GUN??” At that point, I got brave and went downstairs. Dewayne was at our back door and the guys were still beating on doors to try to find this lady. So I called the cops. The cops arrived about 6 or 7 minutes later and these two pure bred geniuses were STILL walking around. One of them even decided he needed to pee and did it on one side of Dewayne’s truck!!!!

After the cops put them back in the taxi and sent them on their way, Dewayne and I went outside to talk to the cops. They said that the white guy had given the lady (the owner of the blue car) some money to hold for him right before he got out of jail. Now, he was out of jail and wanted his money back. They happened to be driving by and SAW this car from the road (which is a fairly lengthy distance) and decided to drop by at 4 in the morning.

Now, let me tell you about the owner of the blue car. I know we can’t judge a book by its cover, ESPECIALLY after the Craigslist killer BUT… I’m pretty sure this lady is not involved with these two idiots. She is a single woman well into her sixty’s. She is a teacher at Permian and is always going out with her friends. She has 100 bumper stickers stuck on her car all of which involve Texas, Bush, or Jesus and a Ty beanie baby on her dash board. She always tells us when she is going out of town and when she will be back so that we can use her covered parking space that she has to pay for! When I told the apartment manager about the incident she said, “Wait… you must be mistaken! They were looking for BARBARA???”

The story isn’t over. After the cops leave, we went back upstairs. We had every light in the house turned off so we could see out but they couldn’t see in. Daisy was such a good girl during this entire ordeal. She was scared! So scared that it scared the poop out of her! It wasn’t funny at the time because Dewayne was already mad as all get out and he stepped in dog poop. He yelled at ME (!) and made ME (!) clean it off!!!! It was such an eventful evening. And of course, Dewayne laid down and instantly started snoring. However, I just laid there. I finally fell asleep a little after 6:00 a.m.

Daisy

I just thought everyone needed an updated picture of our baby. She may not be as fun as grandkid pictures, but its all ya get for a while!!!!!!

Isn't she sweet!?!?!

It's been a while...

I guess it has been long enough since I’ve blogged…

I don’t have much to update. We have decided to push back the house a few months since everything is so unstable right now. Cameron didn’t have enough people take the voluntary retirement package and are resorting to INVOLUNTARY workforce reduction. We also got emails from the company’s CEO today stating we will not be getting our raises in May as planned. I’ve been told my job is not at risk… but how disappointing would it be to start building a house and have to back out? We are looking at starting the project in August. PLUS, the homebuilder we are going to use is starting another subdivision just a LITTLE farther north of town that we both liked. They are putting in the streets and won’t start building there for another month or two anyway!

Daisy lost her first two teeth! We have been a little concerned about her because almost ALL of her adult teeth have grown in and none of her baby teeth had come out! She has twice the amount of teeth so it hurts twice as bad when she decides to chew on your hand! The vet said it would happen between 7 and 9 months. We were all over at mom and dad’s this weekend eating some ribs and Travis came running up to me with a tooth. I thought it was his but it was one of Daisy’s! He had spotted it on mom’s white carpet! So I was checking her mouth and it looks like the same tooth on either side has fallen out!

Dewayne and I have something planned on almost every weekend from now until the end of May. We are busy, busy people!

We are having a chili cook off at work. I’m so excited because I have become the “event planner” around here. From the Oil Show, to the Christmas party, to a chili cook off! My boss is also having me plan something that Cameron does for our major customers. I love all the planning. I’ve decided I actually miss all the wedding planning. Who knows, maybe that is actually what I will end up being! I always wanted to when I was younger… Maybe I should switch my major to business management and minor in sociology… It’s a thought!

just a few random pictures

We have wedding pictures!!!!!

Dewayne and I got on our own cell plan yesterday. We both agreed we hadn't been that happy with Alltel so we went to the AT&T store and both walked out with iPhones. :) TOOOO MUCH FUN!!!!!

I got the pink skin for mine!! I walked in with the intentions of buying a Samsung Eternity... but we BOTH got sucked into the iPhone! Imagine that...

For those of you who are going crazy... I hope to have wedding pictures on Sunday... cross your fingers!!!!!

Some more AWESOME news... we hope to start building our house next month. We still haven't sat down with a lender but we will do that soon. I will keep you updated on that too!

Home...!!!

This is a picture of the Carnival Fantasy in the dock at Progresso. It was the same size as the Ecstasy. It sailed out of New Orleans and followed us around but ran about an hour behind us.
Our suite

The two of us in Progresso, Mexico. To save all the questions, Dewayne is wearing a pair of sunglasses on his head and on his face because we had JUST bought some cheap ones to wear around instead of wearing the expensive ones around!

Swimming pool and slide on the Lido Deck of the Carnival Ecstasy. I heard rumors that the Ecstasy will be drydocked in September and a new pool an slide will be put in... will be neat to go back and see it!

Water in Cozumel, Mexico. The white part in the picture is the side of the boat. :) I took this picture looking down from our balcony.

Just a sneak peek. Day by day activities and pictures coming soon!!!

I just booked our Cozumel excursions!!! We will be scuba diving from 10:00 a.m. til noon and then we swim with the dolphins at 2:00 p.m.

http://www.dolphindiscovery.com/cozumel/cozumel-gallery.asp

Those are pictures of Chankanaab Park. Free snorkeling was included in our dolphin swim package so maybe we will do a little of that!

Ahh! I have so much to get done. I am SUCH a procrastinator!

Story time!!!

I have chosen to sleep on the couch at Stacy’s house for the past month or so. Sierra has become increasingly violent in her sleep. She yells at me and kicks me, rolls on top of me and L-O-V-E-S to play with my ears. So I figured it was best to get married with both of my ears still attached and minimal bruises! :)

Last night, I was sleeping. I don’t have a clue what time it was. Something jolted me awake and I heard someone come into the garage from the back yard (there is a door in the garage that goes straight out to the back yard) I started panicking. I couldn’t decide whether I should run back to one of the kid’s rooms or into Stacy’s room where Mr. Top Shooter man was!!!!! 911 also ran though my mind. But apparently I don’t have much logic when I have been sleeping and as dumb as this sounds, I decided they wouldn’t be able to see me on the couch and I laid and watched to see what would happen. I guess maybe I thought I would jump up and scare them to death…? I DON’T KNOW!!!!

By that time, the intruder had made his way into the kitchen from the garage and I FREAKED! I’ve NEVER been so scared in my life. A man walked around the corner… and it was MARK!!! He had gone outside because the dogs were barking. I absolutely did not hear him go outside! Totally NOT cool!

We got our marriage license last Friday. Best $80 we ever spent!!

We went up to the airport on Saturday for the big homecoming/family reunion. Sierra is just too funny! I was holding her before the plane arrived and she kept saying, "Larriat, I'm going to run to my daddy when I see him!!!" She also decided she would walk to her mom when she saw her, but she was definitely running to see her daddy! I guess it is final they will be moving to Alpine, but I still don't want to talk about it!

We are getting down to the nitty gritty! 11 days to go and I am so, SO ready! Both my boss and Dewayne's boss are coming!! I'm so excited for all the family to be here! I am trying to figure out a nice place where we can ALL go to dinner the evening of the wedding. Yes, I am trying to be just like you, Betheny! I don't even know if she reads this or not, but it was definitely the COOLEST when we all got to hang out after their wedding! Its best not to roam the streets of Odessa at night... but we can totally do dinner somewhere!

One of my friends works at Pacific Tan and I did a Mystic (spray on) tan last night. I've got to admit, my entire body looks AWESOME. It really worked great. Except my hands. I must have had them positioned wrong, especially my left hand. Because they look like I have been playing in orange mud. :) But everything else is perfectly even and very natural looking! I do believe I will be doing it again before the wedding... if I can figure out what went wrong with my hands!!!!

Gotta go to a meeting my boss just decided to call... hope its a good one!!!!

Not much time to blog… just wanted everyone to know I have just been REALLY busy!!!!

The wedding is coming along just fine. Just lots of things to do in the last 17 days before!!! AHH!!! 17 days!!!!

crazy weather and a flat tire

I am going to take Bridal portraits on Friday!! Friday is also the first day we can apply for our marriage license!! If I apply for it at 4:00 p.m. on Friday afternoon, we have to be married by 4:00 p.m. on February 28th!

I feel like all I talk or think about anymore is the wedding! I can’t help it though. It is exactly one month away and I am going crazy! Everything is working out so great! We met with the coordinator at the Elegante over the weekend to go over logistics and stuff. We officially picked out the room set up, stage set up, audio set up, the chairs we wanted to use, table cloths, napkins, cake table locations… it is all decided! The only thing left to decide are the hors d’oeuvres options. Hopefully we will make that decision by the end of this week!

The weather in this town has been loony the past few days. We have been having these BEAUTIFUL 80 degree days… and yesterday’s temp never got above freezing. In fact, I think it stayed under 25 degrees! The worst part was the precipitation. People in this area don’t know how to function when there is ice on the roads. I was reading today that medical crews responded to more than 50 wrecks in Midland and Ector County alone and there were three fatalities in our area. But the ice is melting today and we are supposed to have a high of around 60 degrees. The boss man shut us down at 4:00 p.m. yesterday because it started raining again and the temp just kept dropping.

I had yet another nail in my tire yesterday. I didn’t even notice my tire was low and when I got home at lunch, I realized I had a voicemail from a girl at work. They had notice my tire was low when I was driving off. So I called my dad (Dewayne was on location and couldn’t answer his phone) and he said to drive around the corner to 7-11 and put some air in it and go get it fixed. I tried REALLY hard to get it to put air in the tire, but I ended up making it go completely flat. So dad had to come up there and help me. He decided there had been ice on the end of the hose when I was trying to do it and that is why it wasn’t blowing air. Did you know we spent $2.25 on AIR for my tire? But we got it done and Discount got it fixed. I can’t wait to get rid of this car!!!!!!!!

Okay, that is all for now. Mom and I are going to try on my dress after work today and I am SOO excited!

I got a delivery today!

The card reads: "Thank you for all you do. I love you. Dewayne"

Only 36 more days until I get to marry the sweetest man in the whole wide world!!!!

Oh, and this is a picture of our penthouse suite on the cruise. Dewayne informed me that we get VIP status on the ship since we are staying in this room! I am SO ready!!!

HONEYMOOOOOOON!

It has been a wild past few weekends!! My shower was wonderful and I received so many wonderful things!! Sierra and Emma (Dewayne’s cousin) helped me open all of my presents. I wasn’t even sure of everything I got until Dewayne and I (and mom) went through it all together!

What I learned today: My insurance covers chipped repair on my windshield for free! I went to get lunch for our safety committee meeting and on my way back, a rock hit my windshield and chipped it. I was so upset because it is LITERALLY one thing after another with that car! Anyway, the guy is coming to the house at 5 to fix it. I am so excited!

My boss just came in and told me as of this morning, he had to let 6 of his employees go, me being one of them. As of 3:00 this afternoon, they had decided to raise his budget so that he didn’t have to let anyone go. I have never had so many emotions run through my body at once! But my job is secure, at least for another year. The real world is harsh!

Wedding

All of my bridesmaid dresses are in and in the possession of the maid. J Some of them need some minor/major adjustments but it will all work out fine. I have ordered all of my last little things like my cake knives and my garters. I also found my shoes! That is really all I had left to find!
I will be taking bridal portraits at 10:00 a.m. on January 30th. I can hardly wait! We will be doing them at the Clay Desta building in Midland. It is too yucky to do them outside and this place has a HUGE atrium that looks like it is outside.

WE BOOKED OUR HONEYMOON!!!!! We are officially staying in a Penthouse Suite on the Ecstasy for a 5 day cruise of the Western Caribbean! It REALLY hit me last night that this is REALLY happening. We were going through the activities we will be able to do. I think we have decided on swimming with the dolphins and scuba diving in Cozumel and a tour of the Ancient Mayan ruins in Progresso. The rest we will shop.

Well the holidays are over and we are getting back into the groove of working again. It was a nice break. It always makes me wish I didn’t have to work… but I know I would go out of my mind if I didn’t. Maybe after we have kids in 10 years or so… :)

We are trying to get everything ready for company this weekend! I am really getting excited. I have decided the nerves will probably hit me after the shower on Saturday. The wedding is 51 days away and I am so ready for it. We received our first wedding present in the mail yesterday and I must say that it made me quite emotional!!!

FYI if anyone has tried to call to make reservations at the Elegante and were told there was no group rate for our wedding, please try again. If you already made your reservations and didn’t get the group rate, let me know ASAP and I can have it fixed with a simple email!

I got a phone call that Travis’ tux is in. We bought his because it is cheaper to buy his size than to rent it! The flower girl dresses came in two days ago. I just called University Bridals and my bridesmaid dresses are in, too! AH!! That is so exciting. That has been my biggest stress and now… it’s over!!!!
