I would just agree with him and then plan the most expensive dang funeral ever. Now granted I was raised by possibly the worlds most stubborn man who is also going through the same attitude. Everything revolves around him getting stuff done so he can die I swear. So we just keep adding to the...
Deb, not even sure why I logged on tonight but I felt I needed to. Just hold on to Ken with all you have and enjoy this wedding and the rest of us are just going to pray like mad that you have those years of love that we all so want for you both. As always I will keep you in prayer but...
Don't forget, if your going to color your hair or anything do it in the next day or so. You DO NOT want to do that last minute. You have to have time to make corrections if the unthinkable happens. Make sure you and Ken get some quiet time too before the big day.
This reminds me of this episode of dear Jim, where they knock out the minister and need to replace him real fast. Anywho check online my first google hit was one where you can become an ordained minister and perform weddings legally and its free. I agree it would be special to have someone...
Ok I found an invite I thought was pretty on etsy. http://www.etsy.com/listing/81915142/jade-elegant-lace-wedding-invitation?category=weddings.paper-goods.invitations. I would buy card stock and look for lace and ribbons at the fabric store, Maybe scraps or even scrap book paper that had a...
You might also consider getting ideas for hand crafted ones and copy a look that you love but maybe cannot afford. I do this on alot of different items and have done so with cards. Its actually pretty fun.
I think a friends house can be very lovely. Its really not about how much you spend when I comes down to it. We have family that spent over 20k on a wedding and they are getting divorced. We spent under 2k and have been married almost twice as long. Spending a ton isn't what makes you happy...
Please don't think this sounds tacky. We had ours at a VFW post. We lucked out. His grandfather had been a member before he died and everyone still remembered "little Chris" Anywho they had a really nice building and nice grounds too. Their hall had a dance floor and nice tables. The chairs were...
We are not in the same situation really but we have some of the same issues as far as the entertainment and such. My husband is a game person or a horrible foreign film type person. I would rather read. We prop up in bed, legs all tangled up. He watches the tv and I read. Its enough to just be...
He is male. I think that is unlikely. My dad broke his neck in a fall from a barn roof. 2 breaks in his back and some broken rips. He is sent home after only 3 days. They want him in a brace and not doing anything. Catch up on some movies. What does he do, he tried to cimb into his huge tractor...
You know deb if you fuss and keep someone from being a help you could be robbing them of a blessing. Maybe the Lords wants you to know the love and care of friends you never met in person and maybe he wants them to have a blessing in helping you. Just another way to look at it.
I know this sounds cheap of me but we did just that for music. Boombox.( we hid it and hooked up extra speakers but..) We sat around in the evenings on the couch listening to music and actually made our own wedding CD. Upside we can still listen to it. Every single song was picked by the two of...
You know what we did deb, we skipped the cake all together. I love love love Whites bakery in Massachusets. love them. Real italian bakery. Anywho before I start drooling, we were going just to pick up a favorite fruit tart of mine. Had just found out I was pregnant and had everything but a cake...
He is just feeling insecure Deb. Knowing that hardly makes you feel better but just remember its not what you did. It has everything to do with how he feels. Well that and he is still a man. Sick or not, men draw the idiot card every now and then.
Deb, there is not a dang thing wrong with hoping. In cub scouts we had shirts that read Attitude is Everything. Well after 4 years preaching this every week to the boys I have myself convinced. We can't just say it, or wear it, we gotta live it. So you just keep hoping and praying and we will do...
Deb, very sorry to hear this news for you guys. I will be sending extra prayers up for you both. You know if you need to vent a bit we are all here for you.
