The Wedding Shoes Are Ordered!!

My FMIL wanted to buy me a special gift from me to her so she bought me my wedding shoes!


They are absolutely perfect (minus the fact I'm not sure how I'm going to walk in them)! If I at least get pictures with them I will be happy, the rest of the time I can wear my flip flops. 

Andy was super mad about these heels though. He said that I should look classy on my wedding day, not like a stripper. I just chose to ignore him, because everyone else LOVED them and they go perfectly with our Brewer theme! :)

My mom came up with a cute idea that I could have all my bridesmaids wear them, but #1 I can't afford to buy them for everyone, #2 I don't want them to have to pay for them, and #3 I don't want them to suffer the entire night. They would look super cute with a tea length dress though :)

Bridal Showers

So my MOH bought invites for my bridal shower! To me that is really exciting because it shows that she is excited for the wedding :) The only thing is though, she wants to have my bridal shower and my bachlorette party all on the same day--at the end of summer. That is fine for the bridal shower but we are not getting married until March. The bachlorette party is supposed to be like your last horrah before you get married. I understand that she wants decent weather for it--but even though I hardly go out, I don't want my last horrah to be at the end of summer and have to wait 6-7 months before I get married.

I suggested that we do the bridal shower at the end of August and then combine my golden birthday and my bachlorette party at the end of February in Milwaukee. At first she did not seem thrilled about this. I think she wants to have it in Fond du Lac, which is where the majority of my bridesmaids are from, but most of my friends are in Milwaukee and I would not expect them to drive to Fond du Lac for my bachlorette party when Milwaukee is so much more exciting. She also brought up the fact that if there is bad weather in February she wouldn't be able to make it down--well how the hell would I make it up there then?! It works both ways!

I'm glad that we still have plenty of time to figure all this out. Right now I am taking everything lightly and trying not to let anything irritate me.

OH! As of yesterday we have been engaged for ONE YEAR!! :):):) One year, one month and one day until our wedding!
