i've been encouraged to join the blogging world by some very dear friends and my daughter. i'm what you would call a blog stalker. i never thought i really had much to say and maybe don't but i'm going to try my hand at it.
today, i'd love to hear from any moms going through wedding planning for their daughters. My daughter is getting married on Aug. 9, 2008 to a wonderful man. The engagement just happened in April and they decided the wedding would be sooner than later. Fine by me. The venue will be our yard/lawn. we live on a 10 acre hobby farm and it was in much need of brush and tree clearing. so guess what i've been doing lately? that's right! wood ticks are my friend, along w/scratched up arms, bruised legs and a sore back. What do you expect from an old (50) lady?
it's all been quite bonding. My daughter's fiancee owns an excavating company w/his brother so this weekend he will be over w/heavy equipment. Can't wait! We have alot of piles of brush being burned, holes being dug to bury all the stuff that we have indiscriminately thrown away. I'll try to be more "green" in the future.
The actual wedding stuff is going ok. Trying to remember it's not my wedding and let her enjoy the process. Waiting on quotes for tents and food etc. The waiting game makes it seem somewhat surreal. I guess, not being a natural planner, i have to work a bit harder to check off the lists so we are ready in time. Until next time......

Glad you've found something to keep you busy. I know what happens when you have too much spare time. ;)

See you at the game! :)
Sue - could you dig a pit to bury the stuff that doesn't sell at my garage sale?
I love it that you have blog!
sorry, Karen. We are going "green". no more pits for us not even for your yard sale "junk". lol. Hopefully i can get the hang of stopping by to put stuff on my blog once and awhile. it will keep you all entertained.
Dude--I've waited long enough for "next time"...it is here. Time for a new post, Suepy!
