My To-Do List

Well Happy 2011! It's my wedding year!  I can't believe it's finally here. I feel like it was only yesterday I was calling vendors and having to repeat myself, "No, not next year. 2011." Now it's here and now I realize what I still have to get done.

I figured I could start posting my "To Do" list and marking off things when they are accomplished.  Note: This is not a complete list of everything I must do or have for the wedding, but a list of what I must complete from here on out.

          Not  too bad I guess. It could be worse.  I've made the appointment for alterations for next week. My   mom is coming down for my birthday and we'll go to David's, then we'll go by the place I want to order the koozies from, and then try and find a place to order the sparklers locally.   One bridesmaid has ordered and received her dress. Both my matron and maid of honor both went and were fitted this week.  So that one is almost crossed off.   

           And we had a little run in this week with the guy's tuxes.  The original place we were going to rent them from is now going out of business but we have since found another place and they've been such a big help.  They even sent Dave a thank you note today for choosing them and they look forward to working with us.  From my understanding, they just took over the rentals from the store going out of biz, so I believe we are their first rental order.

           We'll make it! One day at a time... Until Next time!
