Day 338

Happy thanksgiving everyone! Though this is not our first thanksgiving together, it is our first thanksgiving together engaged! :) It is also the last one we will be spending with our last names being different. I cant believe its already the end of November! 

The whole idea of family has really come back to me in the last week. Though I know I have always had family I guess i feel it more now, if that makes sense. Probably doesn't but I feel more apart of my life now than I have in the last three years and its wonderful. 


Danny and I got the opportunity to attend a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert, in Portland OR. It was a blast. Our baby girl Eren came with us and it was a great break from the mundane. We did get a speeding ticket on our way home but that was my fault because my work schedule was making us cut it pretty close. Either way it was worth the trip, some guy rubbed his butt on Danny. It was a hoot! 


Danny's sister and us have been chatting all about cake's and cupcakes. All those who are attending the wedding are in for a great treat! I have read that when you are planning your wedding you are supposed to pick three things/aspects that are the most important for you and splurge on them. For me, the cake would be in the top three. It means so much to us that she is handling this with such care. We get to start taste testing on Sunday, yum!


My dress should be here in the next couple weeks, which is very exciting. The bridesmaids have all been looking at dresses and pretty much have their selections made. Once they are actually purchased I will share. 




We did decide what we wanted to do for the guestbook. Originally, I wanted to have a picture made and have everyone stamp their finger prints as leaves on a tree or birds on a branch. Though I still find this idea adorable, we have found something else that would be more suitable. There will be a table with a Polaroid camera and have people take their own pictures (or have help from others) of what they look like at our wedding. Instead of signing a guest book we will ask our guests to give us advice or words of wisdom. Then I will make a scrapbook and put their handwritten advice on the same page as their Polaroid. Here are some pictures I am using as inspiration for this idea.
