I'm the worst blogger in the universe. I tend to either post completely irrelevant things, or to ignore my blogs for weeks at a time.

This one was supposed to be about wedding planning. It was supposed to be...something. I don't know. In the months since the engagement became official, I still haven't posted much of anything useful.

I ordered Nate's wedding band. It showed up a few days ahead of schedule, and *drumroll* it's the right size! Now it resides in its box in the wedding pile, and he's very upset that I won't let him have it until the wedding. I had to venture away from tradition to be able to find something suited to him, but hopefully a steel ring won't get too abused by him :-)

Our photography panic has officially ended. My mom's best friend Evelyn (god love her!) is going to show up early and do the portraits and whatnot for us so we can have the traditional shots. Everyone I know who has heard about our panic has agreed to have a camera in their hand for us, since I'm a big fan of candid shots anyway.

It's a relief to say the least. That is one more monster taken care of for me. I still have to check in with my girls, find out if they've gotten everything (Christi has, I know that much)...but yeah. Rehearsals still have to be scheduled, and we're still grappling with the caterer. We're got to figure out a way to reduce that cost...again.

Kristen, my coordinator, has been the most patient person on the planet when it comes to this. Here's hoping that patience holds out for us, because I'm going to have to ask her to run a proposal, again...and cut even more back. This is starting to frustrate me beyond all belief.

I do have one small glimmer of hope. I know my wedding cake won't end up on Cake Wrecks! Honestly, Jen's blog has been keeping me sane the past few weeks. I need a good laugh, I venture over, laugh at others' wrecks, and enjoy the comments.

Nothing more to report, really. We've trimmed the guest list, again. Invites have NOT gone out yet, so people really need to stop badgering me....and...uhhmmm....yeah. I have nothing else wedding related to report, really.

I do know I'm getting sick of that pretty picture frame Nate bought us for our wedding photo being empty. I just want to see it filled with our smiles already!

*sigh* 2 and a half months left to go.
