I'm back....

Seriously, I do not think I have ever gone this long without posting.
There has just been way too much going on.
My mom has been in the hospital and had to undergo
bypass surgery! So we have spent as much time
as possible up at the hospital hanging out with her and making her smile :)
She's one tough lady and came through it with flying colors.
And boy can she make an impression! I've even had hospital staff stop me
in the hallway to tell me how sweet my mom is!

So now she is on the road to recovery and may be able to come home
on Wed...yeah for that.

Because of being at the hospital so much, we didn't get to send out
the engagement party invites and the save the dates as early
as I wanted........but it's all good.

I did not go up to the hospital on Thursday so that Jacquelyn and I
could finish them up. Jacq and her future MIL did most of them....thanks Lynne!!

here we are...working hard!


And here's Johnny working hard...........he printed up all of the engagement party invites. We ordered the "save the dates" from Wedding paper divas...good price and great quality. And just printed the engagement party
invites ourself. It is less formal, a backyard BBQ, so we felt
that was ok to do!


they are all going out in the mail today!!

Now off to visit mom, take Chrissy to get haircut, post office, store and then tackle a growing mound of laundry!
Hope I still have some readers :)

later.......

So, so exciting!
Abby and I were talking about how much we loved hearing all about the wedding because it made time go by quickly on Tuesday.
I love that in the picture of Jacq working hard, you can see her ring sparkling :)

Glad to see you back! I haven't been blogging much this summer either, just too much fun stuff going on around me.

This is such an exciting time for your family with the upcoming wedding. Fun, fun, fun!
