SNOW MUCH FUN!

So for many of you that live in the North East/Mid West and any of those "other" snowy areas, 6 inches of snow isn't much at all. BUT for those of us that live in the South - 6 inches of snow is cause for a celebration! The last time we had that much snow in Charlotte was about 5 years ago. Hell, we don't even have snow plows to deal with it and it cripples things, which is kind of a nice change of pace. Our snow storm actually started on Friday with all day rain which continued non-stop into Sunday. Sunday evening it turned into a light snow, which progressed and continued all night. We had so much fun!! Shelby is used to snow from going home to Maine for the holidays, but Izzy had never seen snow before. To make matters worse, we had her shaved down last week so the poor thing didn't have any fur to help keep her warm. (She's a golden doodle and while she doesn't shed she gets SERIOUSLY poofy. We shaved her once last year and decided to do it twice a year this year.) We (I) made a snow angel and then a snowman. We also wandered around town cause we couldn't get the cars out of the driveway. As I was telling my co-worker - even if we did have snow shovels you can't shovel a gravel driveway!

Needless to say, we had a fun snow day!

Oh! Well I guess since this is our wedding blog we should actually talk about the wedding! What's new since the last post? Oh! We went to The Point for their bridal show and got some great ideas and tasted some wonderful food! Now the decisions start! I also vetoed silk flowers. I was toying with the idea for the centerpieces because no one lives here. Our wedding won't be like most italian weddings where the older ladies grab the centerpieces and try to smuggle them home at the end of the night. We won't have that. SO I thought silk might be the way to go. Yeah, no. Mom and I went to a silk flower wearhouse and MAN were they tacky! They all look SO fake- which, well, I guess makes sense. I've also gotten the bridemaids presents nearly done and am very excited about that.

I was putzing around the internet and found AMAZING deals on flights from www.usair.com - round trip AND nonstop from most locations was under $200.00!! Hurry hurry! :)

Casey and I also STARTED registering at Target. We got sidetracked looking at things, debating things, and then trying to remember if we registered for them at Macy's. Who knew Target would be that much more fun than Macy's - though I suppose I should have expected that - I could live in Target.

Whew! Ok that's it for now, I'll update more soon, I promise!!

JUST ABOUT SIX MONTHS!! AHH!!
