A slightly crazy 25 year old with a great husband and two wonderful kids. The only reason one would want to read my inner thoughts is complete boredom or unconditional love.

Going to the chapel and we're...gonna get ma-a-arried

As with Dwight and Angela, it's true love
I don't think I've mentioned it here...but my sister, Kim, and her boyfriend Jerry are getting married next Wednesday (so the plans are for now). Jessie and I will act as the best man and the maid of honor and accompany the happy couple to Winfield, Alabama, where they can apply for a marriage liscense and get married in the same day...the whole shebang!

So Kim called me a little bit ago and asked if we could have a sister-shopping-day-before-the-wedding-day (lol) or something to that effect. So I'm excited! I think it'll be fun. She went with me to buy my wedding dress and it was a lot of fun. We missed a lot of sisterly time together, living apart in different states for so long, among other reasons, so I'm glad when we get to have times like this together. She says shes going to get a haircut too, and I'm to stand watch and make sure they don't mess it up. (Great.) And then we're going to find her something pretty to wear. Don't ask me what I'm going to wear. Last night I assured her she wouldn't have to worry about the bridesmaid looking prettier than the bride. (I'm just not happy with my reflection these days!)

Anyway, I'll let you know Monday about our findings. Wednesday evening when the kids and I were at Mom's, I went through her shed and found some of my old wedding stuff. My bouquets (fake, obviously!) and my gorgeous veil that aunt Daphne made for me as a wedding gift. Lily, Noelle and I all tried on the veil and felt like beautiful brides! I don't think Kim will wear a veil, but maybe she can carry a bouquet and she and Jerry can drink from the "bride and groom" glasses. I love weddings...especially when I can be involved in them!

You're very beautiful and you always have been (and always will be). Chuck and I are going to the wedding, too. I'm glad she is getting a dress to wear. I've been trying to send you an email, but I can't get into hotmail.

Yay! I'm glad no one else can access hotmail, either! LOL, sorry! But I'm having withdrawals! Yeah, Mama, sorry I forgot to tell you about the wedding. Yeah, Andrea, sorry I forgot to tell you that your mom was going LOL! Well at least it's all out in the open now! :D No more secrets! My boss talks so loud that his voice bellows down the hall and you can't tell where he actually is. He's in his office but I can hear him on my side which is several offices down! Anyways, I'm happy for Kim and Jer-Jer. I hope all goes well! Have fun with your sisterly shopping! And yes, you know your beautiful A, so stop trying to convince us you're not! It won't work!

We should call ourselves BBW - Beautiful Blogging Women

I saw a website earlier about Plus Sized Pregnancy (LOL) They called themselves BBW - but theirs meant Big Beautiful Women

On a side note: Someone just called to renew books and I told them "You're Welcome" before they said Thank You...LOL!!!!!!! I'm an idiot!

Well, I missed all that Friday! It's now Sunday night and I have just had time to read it! By the way, the ones of you I know are beautiful and I'm sure the ones that I don't are also.

Have fun at the wedding! Sounds exciting. I like weddings as long as I'm not the one in it! :) Makes me too nervous! :)
