Bridesmaids


I just realized that I stopped with the "Meet the Bridal Party" after Angela my maid of honor! So here is my other two girls that will be standing by me on June 20!

Meet Jessica:
Jessica and I met when she took over a third grade teacher's classroom in January. We were both trying to get our first classrooms under control and didn't really have time to chitchat. A little bit of school drama later and Jess and I were friends. Jess is great and I can always count on her for a reality check and a late night dance party. We have been living together for almost two years now and what a pair we are! I decorate...she cleans. I make dinner...she makes lunch. Not only do we live and teach together, we have almost completely survived grad school, coach Girls on the Run, and get ourselves into a whole bunch of crazy adventures.

Meet Peggy:
Peggy is my next door school neighbor. We met two years ago and I really had no idea how great of friends we would become. I honestly feel like part of her and Ronnie's family. Between weekly dinners and vacations and making Christmas cookies and more her and Ronnie and their family are friends I can't live without. Even though I have only known her for two years...I feel like she has been a life long friend. She makes me smile and laugh. She is always there.

I am very lucky to have these girls to stand by me.

Cake??


I had the perfect idea for my wedding cake...picture this. Box-shaped cupcakes with white icing. They would turn into presents by putting sage green icing and an icing bow on top. In the middle of the bow would be a white chocolate starfish. Scott and I would have our own small cake topper to cut into with the sage green icing and white chocolate starfish around the bottom. I love the idea. Monique (from Sugar Confections in Sunset Beach) was fantastic (And just to let you know, she also does cookies, cakes, and pies for other occasions for those Sunset Beach people). She had wonderful cake for me to taste and got every other type of treat that I wanted to try right then.

She had mentioned one other possibility for my cupcakes, which is the cupcake wrapper, and I finally got the picture of what she was talking about and now I don't know what to do. I think that they are super cute, but I'm not sure it is something that will really be needed...because after all I can't take the cake or the wrappers with me.

At least I have the delicious flavors decided!!!

The Finished Project





So one of my bridesmaids, Peggy, and I spent our day off putting fans together for the wedding. Oh Martha Stewart is going to be the death of me! It was her great idea to make fans and I agreed. I was thinking of all the guests that will be there on the beach and decided that they might need a fan to keep themselves cool. All it took was two pieces of cardstock, a popsicle stick, spray adhesive (the best thing ever) and some ribbon. And they turned out pretty darn cute!!!
