Saturday + Sunday = 2 Days = 1 Weekend

This weekend was summed up for me with a reminder to pace onesself during wedding planning and to relish in what did get done. It's amazing what we tried to accomplish in the two days known as Saturday and Sunday.

We attempted

-Grocery Shopping
-Shawn's Tux Shopping
-Make my headpiece
-Find my Hot Glue Gun
-Get my Portfolio Together

We completed

-Grocery Shopping
-Shawn's Tux was found for $150--to OWN
-Finding my something Borrowed (and it's old) and my something Old.

Shawn's suit is so pretty. It's navy and it has deco stripes which means that each pinstripe is a different blue color and they alternate. It's perfect. With how much we saved on it being 50% off at Kohl's we can afford to have it overhauled by the tailor into his dream of shorts.

 


I tried to make my headpiece Saturday and Sunday but I just need to find my hot glue gun. I set it down for now because this is not something to rush. I used to need to "DO THIS NOW" when I was younger with everything but as I've grown it changed into I must "DO WHAT I CAN DO NOW. NOW." Here's a preview anyway.

My Something Borrowed is Shawn's Nana's necklace. His mom asked me what jewelry I was wearing and I said I didn't know if I'd wear anything but the jewelry Shawn has given me. She took me upstairs and showed me the most beautiful vintage frosted glass necklace ever. I truly like it. I tried it on and with my dress's neckline it will be perfect. She also found me a hanky to use that day for the Something Old. It's white with white embroidery and I'm going to add our initials and date to one corner, also in white embroidery.

So the weekend was great even if we didn't get everything done. In a short time, all things will be done and there will also be nothing left to fret over.

Oh, and WHAT THE HELL STEELERS?!
