bachelorette party, wedding plans, and one more stupid trip...

Yes, Carly threw me a Bachelorette Party. Yes, she had me decked out in the most disgusting paraphernalia she could find. And yes, it was a total bust. No one showed up to our little party, so we made a big deal out of it with only 4 people! Carly, Me and yes, Tony and Matt. The brave fiances came out with us when its just a gals night out. Well, since we had some dudes with us, we had to do something crazy and kinda manly. What's more manly than a strip-club! La Boheme is rated the classiest strip club in Denver, if that's even possible. It was a fun and hilarious night. The strip club was fun, really nasty and even more disgusting!

Luckily we moved the night on to a different bar, Double Daughters, after a couple drinks. It was more fun and relaxed for us all. We took lots of retarded pics and drank a lot more! Those guys were a great sport and that's why we love them!!!












Wow too crazy a night! It was a bit hard to recover if you know what I mean!!!

As for the wedding plans, they are all falling into place so very nicely. I am done planning as I better be with 11 days to go. I still have tons to do, craft, buy and finish. I am a bit overwhelmed so I am really mad I have one more stupid trip to do. I will be back on Saturday so I have a full week to get my life in order finally! A total of 2 whole weeks for me to relax or stress and plan the wedding and recover! Perfect!!! I really can't wait.

Are you as excited as I am? Probably not.
Are you as stressed as I am? Probably not.

Yeah that's right!!!

4 and 6.

4 weeks til the weddin! Yowza! It is really getting close. Yes, I am practically counting down the days. Lets see...what do I have ready? Oh, wait that's a lot of stuff done...so, what do I need to do?

set up and decorate the Cupcake Tree for my 200 cupcakes
buy beer and wine
print programs
order flowers
set up and decorate the arch thingy for us to be married under
buy candy for tables
make tablecloths and the veil on my hat
and I am sure many more things to do before the 4th

With all this going on I can't forget the fact that Tony and I are celebrating our 6 year anniversary tomorrow! And of course this wedding wouldn't be happening if it weren't for he and I. It is quite unbelievable that we have been together for so long, and now we will be starting over with a new anniversary and new years.

We met at the Community College of Denver, in our photo 101 class. We have a special place in our hearts for our photo professor, Lincoln, since we started our relationship there in his darkroom. He complimented me on my awesome pink suede Pumas and I told him how bitchin his watch was, and the rest is history.

With in just a few months of dating, he drove me all the way to Tulsa for Thanksgiving. He had driven me to Colorado Springs to take me to the airport for my flight, when it was completely full (and of course I was stand-by, and this was way before I knew all the flying details). I was hysterically crying and he offered to just drive me the 11 hours, and i jumped on the offer before he changed his mind. I was surprising my mom for the holiday, and boy was she shocked. Little did she know we would get married 6 years later!

I am very excited about the wedding, but more excited to call Tony my husband. Although, we are "married" (as classy as common law is) through Frontier to be able to get my benefits, it will be wonderful to be real. I don't know if a wedding is really the best way to show someone you love, but it will be so wonderful to see the entire family and so many of our friends all together in one room.

I can't wait to marry Tony pants!!

yes my thumb is green and thanks for asking...

...But my fingernails are black. It only took me 5 hours and a great friend to get a ton of stuff done in the backyard today! Luckily the temperature was only a high of 70 degrees today, but the damn Denver sun is so blazingly close it felt like 90, then you stand in the shade and tis grand again.

AFTER



(I can't pull these tree roots, :( POO!)

There were three large bushes and their roots against the fence and today I pulled all 3!! Each took about an hour and Matt doubted I could pull it off (pun intended), but I showed him. Although each one was so difficult at the end that I needed his help. The last of the roots was the hardest to get out, but it could have been b/c we had been working in the sun for hours! The best part when we finally pulled it out of the dirt, it looks just like baby! Poor little baby roots torn away from its momma dirt! TOO BAD!

I also whacked all those 3 foot high weeds the other day, while tony mowed the front. It is really looking great around here, but, my GOD, there is so much yard junk to take care of! I think I will get it all planned out so I will know how much sod to buy. I want tons of gardens, too, which is all the better for not mowing!

We dug and dug and dug today until we could dig no more.

This is the baby root. Don't you see it? What a cry baby!


next up... ROTO-TILLER FUN!!!
