Only 54 More Days to Go

Aunt Carol and Uncle Bill know that since I was two years old and we were building our house, my favorite number has been 54! They have been counting down the days until our wedding and surprised us on Tuesday with a banner surrounded by frogs and hearts in the front yard!

Only 54 more days to go! (I better stop blogging and get busy!)

Bridal Shower #1

The ladies of the Clark Family know how to sit back, relax, enjoy each other's company and some great food! My first bridal shower (of five- I think) was held at The Butterfly Garden on Bardstown Road in Louisville, KY. The food there was excellent, especially the white chocolate raspberry cake! I was so blessed by all of the wonderful gifts that I received. There were things to make me feel good, things to make me smell good and things to make me and my home look good. There were things to help me cook, things to help me save time and things to help me help others!

Sadie and I had a lot of fun opening the gifts! I was glad she was there to help! When I tried not to open the box from my mom until I got home, Sadie told me that I needed to open it now. She picked it up from behind my chair where I had tried to hide it and helped me examine the contents. She took each piece out, held them up and then layed them on the floor to fold them back up again and put the back in the box! I love that girl!

Invitations Mailed!!

Whoo hoo! I am so glad that all of the invitations have now been mailed! I stayed up all night assembling and stuffing them. It was fun, but I am relieved to have it completed! Each one was different. Some needed hotel information and directions, some just needed directions. Some needed extra cards and some didn't!

I tried to get the Postmaster to let me mail them all out for the same price it had cost the printer to send them to me, but he said mailing 220 invitations would cost me more than $21.95! At 61 cents each, it was about $150! That's ok though! Knowing that so many people will have the opportunity to be there with us on that special day to celebrate is really exciting!
