Oh Daisy!

I'm moving over to a new blog.... www.lynchduo.blogspot.com

Make sure to update your bookmarks and come visit often!!

My list is stressing me out but here it is:

- Print Programs
- E-mail Jason about ceremony
- Find blue crystals for the bottom of my shoes
- Make sure my Grandparents will bring pictures
- Finish Heritage table signs
- Call Caterer (give final head count)
- Confirm with Make-Up
- Have Mail forwarded

- Finish my last week of teaching! :(

OMG the list is huge this week (plus lots of stuff that didn't get done last week).

One big check from last week though: GRADUATING!!

I know this post is about three days late but the really really really exciting thing is that I am DONE with my second work sample! I have not allowed myself to do anything wedding related in the last two weeks because I knew that I needed to get this done. Now it's done and I get to focus on the wedding for 25 more days!! Here is my list of things to do this week:

- Clean my house for graduation
- Design programs (will be posting for advice)
- Make a schedule for the day of events
- Print signs
- Buy Andy's wedding gift
- Buy Kenna and James gifts
- Plan for kids baskets
- Graduate!

P.S. Some very unexpected wedding planning news, last weekend Andy and his mom, Anita, helped me make 450 cake balls for the favors! That's right they are all done!!! I can't believe it just as much as you can't but I'm and so thrilled to have that big task off the list!

Last Friday I got to celebrate with some of my favorite Portland women! Ashley had the amazing idea to go to a paint your own pottery studio where everyone would paint something for Andy and I to put in our new home. It was an amazing night and I loved celebrating with these women that have been such a huge part of my life this past year (and Kaitlin for the last 10 years!) Here are the pictures of the finished products, I can't believe how amazing they turned out!

Shannon, Lauren, me, Kaitlin, Ashley, Chelsie, and Abby

A fun fiesta dish made by Kaitlin. Thank you Katie, Andy will love filling this with chips and salsa!

Ashley made this beautiful sign that I plan to hang with ribbon. Thank you Ashley, it will look beautiful in our new apartment!

I love all of the little people that Chelsie draws and it made ours even more special that they are on a spoon rest. Thank you Chelsie but i'm not sure if I will actually be able to put a dirty spoon on such a beautiful piece of art!

Lauren and Shannon made these blossoming condiment bowls. Thank you Lauren and Shannon, I think they will look fabulous with sprinkles in them!

This one was made by Shannon.

This one was made by Lauren.

This fabulous vase was carefully designed and painted by Abby! Thank you Abby, I can't wait for Andy to buy me flowers to put in it!

One of my favorite things is that Abby and I used the same shades and the tops of our dishes mimic each other using opposite colors.

This is the utensil holder that I made. Not exactly how I planned for it to turn out but I love how bright the colors are!

Thank you to all of my Portland beauties for the awesome year and the beautiful ceramics!

One month to go!!!! WOW, I can't believe that it has all gone by so quickly. Usually I would give you a list of things that I need to for the next month but since that list this month is a million points long, I decided to start doing a weekly list. So starting Sunday there will be four weeks to go and I will post my update for the week!

Finally I finished the rehearsal dinner invites. I LOVE the poem on them. A couple of months ago I found some cute paper that I have been needing an excuse to use. They have no connection to our theme or colors and don't even match each other but I decided oh well! I think they all turned out really cute and couldn't even decide which one was my favorite. Which one will you get in the mail? It's a surprise!!!! They are going in the mail tomorrow (the day after stamp prices go up :( )
