Stress much???

My very lovely and beautiful maid of honor requested that I write a new entry already! Seeing as I haven't posted in quite a few months ago, I figured I would throw her a bone :O)
So here it goes....
Getting married is stressful enough...now moving, finding a job, and money woes are adding to the pile that already existed. Also, finding out you have upset someone because you didn't invite someone they know to the wedding is not helping, people!!! Lay off me...I am just trying to keep a wedding that I cannot even really afford as small as possible. If I don't know, them, and/or cannot have a full on conversation with them, I do not want to pay to feed, entertain, and booze them up at our wedding. Also, this wedding is not about gifts! I don't care if so-and-so would buy us a nice gift if we were to invite them. We just want to have our closest friends and family with us on our special day...oh and to sing karaoke with us! With that being said (sorry for the rant)...Luckily, I have found the most understanding and solid as a rock person when it comes to dealing with frustrating moments. I have also noticed lately we are a perfect balancing act for each other. When he is stressed, I tend to find myself very calm and collected. When I am going on and on and on and on...he is as cool as a cucumber. Hopefully, our relationship will maintain this harmonious balance.


All stresses aside, we did have a lovely shower thrown for us by John's sisters. The theme was a Mexican Fiesta. His sisters were awesome enough to make a vegetarian entree for me...spinach and mushroom enchiladas...YUMMY!!! It was also some good bonding time for me and John's sisters and mom because we stayed up late the night before making paper flowers. (Just like the one I am donning in my hair...and of course, John had to wear the sombrero) Here are a few pictures of us on our special day...enjoy!
