The Countdown Begins

and you "all" said what's the panic you have a whole year ahead of you....

Well look at us now - 3 months to go till we are married! and the year has been a HECTIC one, with renovating, new business ventures,wedding planning etc etc etc.
The excitement has truly started. I managed to get the invitations finished during this week and amazingly enough got some help from the groom. I was so pleased with myself that I had to photograph the scene. We have also started delivering / mailing them. Before any of you get any ideas about lecturing me, we have been reminded time and again how busy December is and THIS is the reason for early invites.
My dress was pretty much on the back burner until I got the call to say the fabric for my bodice had arrived a few weeks early. I phoned Talya, who is making the dress and she said we can start as soon as she has the rest of the fabric. The littlies are on track, bar our shoe catastrophe for the girls. I had found beautiful shoes and ran around to get the various sizes only to find that not 1 pair is std sizing and therefore doesn't fit any of the girls. Never mind plan B has been set forth and alls well that ends well. The boys gear is basically sorted as well - thanks to woolies boys dept. Still on the hunt for little Leo's outfit but on top of it. Chris need a rev to himself and his guys organized.
Other than that, church is confirmed, the venue is booked and Chris & I are still mad about each other and our excitement grows daily as the countdown begins & we anticipate the fun we going to have with our nearest and dearest.
