WOW Is it Really March?

Well time has surely been flying this year so far. I am in shock that we are already in March and the end of the second week of March at that. There is a lot going on with final preparations for the Wedding and exciting outings leading up to the wedding. I have recently accomplished the following for the wedding; the final meeting with the florist, meeting with the DJ, we got our marriage license, did our final two meetings with the Pastor, and now I get butterflies in my stomach thinking about how close we are. 15 days?!?! Really...OH my. I would be lying if I said I wasn't getting nervous/anxious. It will be a major sigh of relief when I get down the aisle and through the service, hopefully without balling my eyes out. On a lighter note still a few things to get done before the big day, I have to go finish getting the Liquor for the reception, I am sure everyone is glad to hear that I will be accomplishing that. Haha. Then I need to finish sending the DJ a few things he asked me to get together for him, and meet with the organist who will play at the service. Oh its going to be a busy weekend. I am hoping to knock everything out so that I can have at least a few days of just relaxation. On more exciting news, I get to do my Hair trial on Saturday with my awesome hairstylist Nicki. I am beyond excited to see that come into play since I have already done my makeup run through two months back. So while I am running around this weekend trying to accomplish things, Corey will be taken away by his groomsmen and good friends for a road trip to The Carolinas for the weekend. I just ask that he comes back in one piece, and doesn't go to the hospital or jail on his trip. Other then that I know he will behave. So after my weekend of busy busy with the two boys under foot as well, I will surely deserve some girl time the following weekend.
My matron of honor, bridesmaids and myself will have a busy Saturday, March 20th. First we all are going to go one last time to the Bridal Salon so they can make sure their alterations are perfect and I will be trying my dress on one last time. Then I get to go visit Nicki again for a fabulous trim and highlight. Then I will be meeting back up with them to head downtown. We will head to our hotel and checkin, and then head to Oya Restaurant and Lounge for some dinner and drinks. After that we are meeting the Boomerang Nightlife Party bus for a bar tour of DC. I am sure it will be an awesome night with my bridesmaids/matron of honor and will be a great way to spend my last Saturday as a "single woman." So other then that life is just crazy, just working and trying to get things done around the house in between all the other wedding things that must get accomplished. However I wouldn't trade it for the world. Friday March 26th is going to be an awesome and memorable day for me. In the meantime, I will just practice breathing and think of the amazing time Corey and I will have in Napa Valley and San Francisco for our honeymoon with no kids, no worries and our first trip BY OURSELVES of our entire relationship. Now that is something to get excited about, we love our friends and the boys but there is just a nice ring to the sound of a TRIP ALONE with my best friend and my soon to be husband. California here we come!!!
