Welcome Back Letter

At work if we have an advisor who has more then 5 absents from work we give them a Welcome Back Letter....it's a friendly reminder to show up for work.
So I've decided to issue myself a Welcome Back letter to this blog:) I've been absent, I know and I have no excuse really. Well it is hard to share a computer with someone who's whole work is based on the Internet;) I'm back to nights this weeks so there should be some activity since I don't have to wait for Mike to finish his emails and web updates.

So wedding updates:
We went to Picton on Saturday and checked out the winery (Waupoos Winery) and things look great. It's right on the lake and the vows will be said in the dock and then dinner and dancing will be in an open tent overlooking the lake on one side and the vineyard on the other.

I picked out my flowers. I've choose lavender hydrangeas and lavender freesia with an accent of white from a lily. Very simple, but very nice. Mike and his guys are going to have the freesia with brown woodcock feather. Mike just likes the idea of being able to tell people that there woodcock feather...sheesh guys!

Looked at all the hotels and those look good. very happy that everyone is going to be is large groups. I was worried that I'd have people scattered at various B&B. As it is now the breakup is:



Miller/Bethune - Angeline's Spa and Inn
Parks/Jessup - Picton Harbour Inn
Friends - Queen's Inn
Me and Mike - Merrill Inn

So thing are going smoothly and well. I'm a little scared that things are going to well. So far there has only been a few things that I'm not that happy about. One is that it looks like people will be standing for the ceremony. This is how they do it at the site. I can't say I'm too keen on that, but maybe if I complain enough I'll get my chairs.

Final note: I've gotten a lot of comments about the dresses. I've had a few break downs, so I'm going to put it out there since Mike doesn't read this site any ways. I did not get the v-necks. I got the spaghetti strap one. I know many of you loved the two v-necks in the photo, but one was not a comfortable dress and made me very self conscious of my stomach and the other was too expensive and the staff was rude.
The spaghetti strap one was the one I tried on first and I loved it. I compared all the others to it and kept going back to it.

So I hope that post made up for the last month of no commets :)
