Less than 3 months to go til the BIG DAY.......

Well from Friday there was exactly 3 months to go until I say "I do". WOW, how time flies. I just can't believe that it is getting closer. I knew that it was coming up but it seems really close now. We have changed our minds again and we're now getting married at Clouds Bend United Methodist Church. It is really a small but nice church in my parents' neighborhood and we went to look at it last night. We both were really happy about it and the best part is that it is FREE!!!! We will make a contribution to the church but there is no fee to have the wedding there and so far, that has been the only thing that is FREE!!!!!!

I get my dress back tomorrow and the grandmother's are coming along with us. Wow, won't that be fun. I have a feeling that it will be a big crying party because they will be like"the baby is getting married". I hope that they don't embarass me to much but you can never tell when it is an emotional time like this and when it comes to your grandmother's . Joy, my maid of honor, and my mother is coming, so maybe with the two of them there, thing won't be to bad. I am really excited though to be able to try on my dress and to have it fit the way that it should. I am also really excited about having my bridal pictures done this Saturday. It will be a busy day but an exciting day. To the fitting tomorrow, we are taking a camera and so we will have those pictures and then once we take the bridal pictures, we will have those proofs also. A lot going on but it is very exciting.

Joy and I met for lunch yesterday to discuss the bridal/wedding shower and the night of the bachelorette party. We are going to have the wedding shower in December during the weekend of Dec.16-18. That is the weekend before Christmas and it will be busy but that is really the only time that we could do it. The next two weekends are tied up with the holidays and then the first weekend in January is the bachloretter party, so it really only left that weekend. My to-do list just keeps getting longer and longer. What am I going to do? I am just going to be so busy the next few months and I don't see how everything is going to get done but all the people that I talkk to keep telling me that things will just fall into place and not to stress to much. I hope that is the way that it works.

This past weekend on Saturday night, Rocky, Joy,Derek(my brother), and I went the the Field of Screams in Jonesborough. We had fun. It wasn't very scary but it was nice to get out with friends and do something that we enjoy doing. We are going to try to go to another Haunted House or something before Halloween but it just depends on time. We are not going to be able to do anything like that this weekend because Saturday night, we have to go to Fanatics in JC for a little while to see Stef and Steven for their going away party. We are also supposed to go out for Jennifer's birthday that night but she's not sure what she wants to do. Jennifer's birthday is tomorrow, so Happy Birthday Jennifer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who knows where we will end up or what we will end up doing but we will be busy. I am looking forward to actually getting out this weekend though. We usually just sit on our butts at home, so we are actually going to be out in public this weekend for once and we get to socialize with people our own age.

Tennesee plays football this weekend, too!!!! Most of you know how I am about Tennesse football, so I will have to try to catch some of the game. I have to cheer my boys on even though they are sucking ass this year. I still am a die hard UT fan. GO Vols!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

I just love it!!!!!! I had to share and I hope that you all have enjoyed!!!! Have a good one. I am off to the dentist to have a root canal. I am so looking forward to that just let me tell you.

I'm glad to know that I am not the only one..........

I am glad to know that I am not the only one who has the same everyday problems that I have. It seems like everyday things seem to start to get better and then BOOM they are right back to where they started, at the bottom. Finances are what I am talking about. Rocky and I both work. We both pay our bills but after that, there just doesn't seem to be much left and that is really depressing for both of us because what are we working for? I know that there are many of you out there who know where I am coming from and probably have the same exact situation. It just sucks because we work and work and just don't seem to get ahead. Hell, we can't even seem to get caught up. Anyway, that is life, I guess.

We did go to the UT game this past weekend and had a GREAT time!!!!!!!!!! Rocky had never been to a game there before, so it was an experience for him. We went with my brother, Derek, and his friend, Igor. We really had a good time. We left at 9:30 that morning and got home about 6:30 that evening. It was a long day but a fun day. UT played Ole Miss and UT won, of course!!!!!!!!! GO VOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!! When we got home, I was so tired and I had a really bad headache. I laid down while Rocky went to his mom's to get Sunny. I passed out!!! I didn't get up until the next morning. I was worn completely out. But it was worth it and I would do it again.

We haven't really done much on the wedding here lately. We have been really busy with just everyday stuff that we can't find the time to do anything else. I have got to get Amy and Jayden back to the Bridal Boutique to try on dresses, we have to pick out our invitations, and we have to finalize the guest list. We already know what type of invitations that we want to use, we just have to go to a few different places to compare prices, so that we can get them for the cheapest price. I really don't think that there will be that big of a price difference but we are going to be sure before we go and buy them. I do get my dress back this month and I get to have my bridal pictures made this month also. I am really excited about that. I hope that the weather will cooperate the day that we decide to do it.

Well, I have to get off here and get ready to go home. I hope to be able to right soon.
