Family Pictures

Friday, November 6, 2009

I just wanted to throw this out there so that everyone is aware that we are trying to plan this out..... Sooooo FYI !!!
Alright everyone, we are trying to get all of the kids together for family pictures. We wanted to do a big group shot of all the "families" together (mom + dad, Jamie + Jake and kids, Darin + Chandra + Camille, Heidi + Jordan, Tiffany, and then of course Josh + myself + Kim + Shay). this is a tradition that I want to kick into gear twice a year. Once in the summer (McKay will be back, YAY) and once right before Christmas. Also, we are wanting to break off and do pictures of each individual "family". We are trying to coordinate with when Jamie and Jake will be in town as well. We are thinking of doing a color scheme as far as wardrobe (no matching denim shirts, please!!) so if anyone has a cute idea, let me know. My initial thought was black, red and white (any combo of tops and bottoms). But if anyone has another idea, lets hear it! And as soon as we know when we can coordinate this thing, we will let everyone know. KK ? :)

We got our pictures back!! YAY! Below are a few of my favorites. I'm so excited :)

Alright, now for the update. This past weekend we got SO much done! On Saturday we met my sister at the mall and got ties for the little boys, shoes for all three flower girls, we had my sister try on dresses just to see her size. I found the perfect dress for my bridesmaids:

And I'm hoping it works out! You can only get it on JC Penny online so we ordered a middle size and am anxiously awaiting its arrival. SQUEE!!!! Things are coming together so great!

We also booked our stay at the Lion's Gate Manor in Lava, it's amazing if you want to go check it out. Besides that we just spent time together, watched some movies, and had fun.

So if the Bridesmaid dress idea turns out, the next item of business is flower price matching. Flowers, cake, and then the ceremony are the only things left really. WOW. I can't believe we are so prepared. HAHA. Only 70 more days to go!!!

Long time, no chat :) Hello everyone! I know, it has been a little while and I'm sorry. But let me get you updated! So back on Feb 7 I had my final dress fitting and it is perfect! I'm so dang excited for Josh to see it. He isn't allowed to peek at it at all, and he promised me he wouldn't try. I want it to be a total surprise to him when he sees me the day of. :) We also had Valentine's day recently and we enjoyed a very nice lunch and then went to the movies. It wasn't anything super fancy, but it was wonderful. Other than that, we really don't have much else of importance happen to share with you all.

Today we have our engagement pictures, and lo and behold, it's supposed to rain. great. Please everyone do a "don't-rain-between-the-hours-of-3:00-to-6:00" dance. I'm so grateful for the moisture, I think that is wonderful. I'm just hoping we are smiled down on and the rain will let up for that small window of time today. I'm so excited for these pictures and I really want them to turn out well.

Well, it's getting closer and we have only a few things left to plan. My grandmother and Josh's mom have been helping me with making the flower girl dresses. They are probably only about 20% done, but this is the hard and slow part. Once we get the bodice and sleeves together, the rest is cake HAHA. We are still on the lookout for bridesmaids dresses. Below is a picture of another kind of idea we had (yellow dresses). Of course I would want them in my wedding colors, but the style of dress is what I wanted to point out. Anyone have any ideas?? Alright, I gotta get going. Love you all! Only 75 days left. YAY!
