Lingerie Party!



My future sister-in-laws, Cyndel and Misty, hosted a lingerie party for me on March 20, 2010. Cyndel made fabulous strawberry cupcakes, cheese cake, chicken turnovers, and dip. Misty brought my favorite salad from Tim's Pizza. They had spiked punch, regular punch, and of course, what lingerie party doesn't have jell-o shots?!?! We played a game where my guests decorated "granny" panties and another where they made sexy lingerie out of streamer! It was so fun! I wish my best friend, Ashley, and bridesmaid, Kari, could have been there...unfortunately Ashley lives in Texas and Kari had shingles. But, I got tons of fabulous gifts from my friends and future family! Here are some pictures...of course I can't share them all...I don't want Elvis to see!!! ;-)


I had to take a shot every time someone said "Elvis, Sexy, or Lingerie!"

Wedding Update

Bridesmaid dresses are picked and ordered. Elvis and I have decided to go with brown dresses and brown suits. There are so many other we have to get together now. Print wedding invitations, print programs, flowers - which will be easy thanks to my friend, Hadley, and then the tiny details, which people forget....I had no idea there was so much to planning a wedding. I think I'm holding it together really well. Elvis might disagree, but he isn't allow to disagree...HAHA! Just kidding!
If I have any advice for a bride-to-be I would say "When you hear a guy saying that he is so tired of hearing about the wedding from his fiance, he's not lying and try to remember that when you're planning your wedding." They really don't care what color of flower, what kind of invitation, who caters or who attends, etc. I think most grooms would just go to the Justice of the Peace.
My advice for a groom-to-be...never tell your bride-to-be that the wedding is "stressing you out" when all she has asked is your opinion. You have no idea how many choices are out there. Every girl wants the perfect wedding and we want it all. Even when we say we want a small wedding...when it comes down to it...we want it to be something that represents us and something special that we hope people will remember...even though we know guests never remember the small details.

Warrior Dash

Cyndel, Ashley Calico, and I have signed up to attend Warrior Dash in Joliet, Illinios. We will be doing the race at Saturday, June 19th, at 9am. In case you have never heard of Warrior Dash, it is "America's most insane race". It has 12 obstacles on a 3.17 mile course. We are starting to train this weekend! I just hope I can make it through...alive!
