So...since the whole house-buying process began back in, what, September...?...I've completely stopped planning altogether. I tried to get back into it a few weeks ago, and we did book our transportation, find my wedding band, and find a purse for me, but that's NOTHING compared to what I have left to do! So when 6 months hit the other day, I thought...OH MY GOD...now I have LESS than 6 months! **** :) So I'm back to looking online for things to order, pricing items everywhere I go. I did manage to find some beautiful necklaces for my girls (with the exception of my jr. and flower girl...they will have something different). I looked online and found some nice ones at Kohl's...well wouldn't ya know..I just opened an account with them (ugh) and had a coupon, plus I still had $10 in Kohl's cash to spend by today...so Jim and I went and were looking. I was torn between two, and this lady that was shopping came up behind me and said she works in jewelry and offered her help. She suggested I get these, and I agreed I liked them better. Of course, they only had 2, so I had to go to another location to get the other 2. I wasn't about to wait until AFTER Black Friday. haha The pic isn't the greatest..I was in the basement with poor lighting.
I held it up against my swatch, and it's pretty darn close! Should be perfect to keep lipgloss, kleenex, and Tylenol in, so I don't have to search for whoever has my stuff. :)
Last week was CRAZY! We had to finish (most) of the rest of the house for our housewarming/football/birthday party starting on Sunday, which finally got finished on Friday, my birthday was Thursday, so we went shopping AND GOT MY WEDDING BAND , and then out to dinner with the kids before going to scouts, all the while Jim was incredibly sick (just like last year!), Friday night was our night to go out for my birthday (their mom took them for us), and Saturday was spent cooking, cleaning, and entertaining from 9am until about 1am. SIGH! Oh, and sometime during that week (not sure what day), we FINALLY booked transportation. I just mailed the check! YIPPEE!
