fifty nine

last weekend was wonderful! jordan was in town and it was shel's twenty first birthday!
we started the weekend with a jaunt to the casino where everyone but Kelly lost all of their $20. then we met up with the rybergss for dinner at llyelyns...** lewelyns ** lew ellyns.. i have no idea how to spell that name. halfway through dinner i went to the airport to pick up my man. we then proceeded to electric cowboy with the gang to meet up with sam & beau. Fantastic music, better company makes for a spectacular night. especially when we got to watch the boys play with the punching bag to see how much torque they had in a punch.... oh boys. you'll be happy to know that i got up to 400 whatevers! lol

saturday was productive with my momma working away in the kitchen remodeling, and jordan and i went to go ring shopping for him. that was tough work.... jordan didn't not want to do this. but after going to two places we settled on a ring from jared. yes Mr. Anders he went to you....
the end result is a gorgeous white-gold- brushed ring. after that we thought we would try our luck with a bit of furniture shopping... well that was an fail. we have figured out that if you are under the age of t60 you will not find one single piece of worthy furniture at caroll house.... ugh.

overall it was a great weekend. i
i must say however that the 'saying goodbye' bit is really getting old. seriously only fifty nine days left till i don't have to say goodbye anymore . that is what i will love the most.

seventy seven

we found our new apartment! jordan went over yesterday and took some pictures.... SOOOOOOOO very excited. now i will have a home for all of my wonderful gifts! yay!

ninety two

holy smoking countdown!

i finally reached double digits, man i thought this day would never come. AND tomorrow will be exactly three months till the wedding. now that is incomprehensible. only three months left. jimminy cricket i remembered when we started this countdown at one year and nine months. whoa.

so i decided to start a new project... no surprises there. i really need to make a list of everything that i have made for this single day in the future. this new project is a string of flowers made from coffee filters.... we'll see how they turn out

well friends and stalkers, it has been forever since i have posted about anything. last weekend was my very first bridal shower! thrown by my wonderful wysocke family. it was basically a mexican luau. complete with grass skirt and guacamole. it was so fantastic! everyone was able to come which in itself was amazing! i was extremely spoiled with presents. after this shower my kitchen will already be half stocked! i can't express enough thanks to everyone for being there and making it a perfect wedding shower.

i miss my two boys.

so last night i was going through all the paper i have left in 4 years of art supplies. and surprisingly with the exception of my seed paper i bought a year ago, i should have enough to make the invites, the programs and the escort cards! sweetness! the envelopes are due in the mail today and they will be the brown kraft paper. 100% recycled! which is great for our 'natural' type wedding style we seem to be going for.

also something extremly exciting..... lol once again, maybe to me but you might be stifiling a yawn....we got in our 'H' wax seal stamp as well as the metalic sage color wax! whoo hoo. i played with it last night and it looks swell!needless to say last night i stayed up way too late in the midst of paper and it was awesome.

i'm including a glimpse of another project i'm working on for the little ones. check it out:
