Yes! Yes!

I have been patiently waiting for my bridesmaids to get their invites to be in my wedding...I wanted to do something different other than just asking each girl to be in my wedding so I handcrafted each invitation with a picture of them in a dress and wrote a poem to each girl. I also decorated cute little notebooks with all the bridesmaids names and phone numbers so they could keep in contact...That was my "BIG SURPRISE" that I've been working on for about 2 weeks and spent most of my snow day putting it all together!!!I was very happy that I didn't spill the beans at work to Carin and bridesmaid #3...It was tough but I got through it!! I was very impressed with how the packages all came together and then it was all a waiting game assuming that 3 of my girls would get theirs on Friday or Saturday and my last one would get hers probably Tues or Weds...

Well I got out of work on Sat around 2:00 and still hadn't heard from anyone...I was starting to get frustrated! I knew the postman said it would take about a day for the local ones and here it had been 2 days...Finally at 8:00 on Saturday night I got my first YES from Carin!! I was ecstatic!!! Yahoooo!!!! I then told her how I kept it all a secret and blah blah blah... We will have a blast planning this together!





Today went by with no calls all day and then as I was sitting down to eat dinner I got my second YES from my sister Kelly!! I gave her the first job (of many)..She needs to start looking for a dress she will feel comfortable wearing-- the only rule was that it has to be pink or brown or a combination of these two colors. Once we find a dress for Kelly, we will make decisions on the bridesmaids dresses!

Bridesmaid #3 called as I got off the phone with Kelly and we talked for about 35 minutes and she didn't mention anything of her package...SO my assumption is that they don't get regular mail delivery out there on the farm...Or she didn't check her mail for the past 2 days...If I don't hear from her tomorrow I will start thinking that the goats may have gotten the mail and chewed it up...good thing I took pictures for proof!!!

Bridesmaid #4 lives quite a distance away and will not be getting her invite for a few days...I'll keep you all up to date...
There may also be a bridesmaid #5 and bridesmaid #6 in the works....Josh and I have some more discussing to do!

Hopefully once Josh gets home from Florida (rough life, huh?) we will have time to go ask our flower girls to partake in this exciting event!!! Instead of making them a card we bought them princess tiaras and fairy wands to ask them the important question!
