Wedding Planning Madness

Who would have guessed that planning a wedding is just so much work! I don't think you can possibly understand until you do it yourself. Just to give you an idea here is some of the stuff I have been doing - balance is huge and seems almost impossible when you have about 9 weeks to plan a wedding!

January 8 – wedding ring shopping, purchase wedding dress and alterations, etc.
January 9 – wedding research on computer
January 10 – go to J-ville to fill out apartment contract
January 11 – omar moves to Jacksonville, shop for announcement pics.
Janauary 12 – Omar comes back for announcement pics, purchase a few things for the apt.
January 13 – announcement pics taken
