What a weekend! On Friday there were storm warnings and I left work early to get home to be with the pups. It was very weird. Dark black sky on one side of the road, and sunshine and clear on the other. There were tornado warnings for a good portion of the province. We actually left work when we heard some had been touching down near our town. It had passed when we got home but we got another storm not long after with wind and pounding rains. I said to my bridesmaid "Maybe God is trying to tell me something... food poisoning for my bridal shower and tornados when my friends are travelling for my stagette!" She said no, God is just giving me adventure lol! She said maybe something will happen the wedding day too... I was like "Yeah, maybe I'll be struck by lightning" lol!
Anyways, that night we had my family out for a barbeque (Scott was a good sport and stood out in the rain while we visited inside!). Then after they left, my matron of honor showed up after her 5 hour drive. We had a good visit that night!
Saturday we went to the city and bought and picked up all the alcohol for our permit bar at the wedding. We are storing it in my grandma's garage for now! Then we got our marriage license, and did some shopping. The little girls tried on their flower girl dresses, and one does not fit AT ALL. We can not do up the zipper. I will have to call tomorrow first thing and see what our options are.... it's only 3 weeks until the wedding and I don't know if a new one will be here in time.
Last night, a bunch of my friends took me out for a really nice dinner at a really nice restaurant. Then we all went out to the bar, and I had to put on my "Buck a Suck" shirt
By midnight I had all of the candies off my shirt, enough money to cover drinks for the rest of the night, and all of my other tasks done!!! I had to be kissed on the cheek by 5 guys, pull out chest hair
(one of the girls had a friend who volunteered, and another girl had tweezers in her purse lol!!!), get a guy's number (they obviously knew it wasn't for real, my shirt said BRIDE across it and I was wearing pink devil horns LOL). In the end it was SUCH a fun night, and the girls I was with just made it so much better because they all pitched in to help me finish my tasks lol!
I feel much better today than I expected... I was up and ready to see my friend off for her return home this morning, and Scott and the puppies are all still fast asleep! I guess now that the stagette hurdle is out of the way, I am finally prepared to get married lol!
