Avoiding Wussy Arms

Wouldn't you know it? The day after I was lamenting how much candy and donut holes I ate this weekend... my dress comes in a month early!! Luckily, I have this book (and another 7 months) to help me get into "strapless" shape:

It's actually really great. It is mostly demonstrations of how to do various exercises; at home, with some dumbells, a balance ball, and a step (previously used for 90's aerobics). There is a 6-month program (which I'm doing, ever so slowly, since I had 8 months to go when I started.) The program is only 3 days a week, about 20-25 minutes a shot. Totally do-able! (and actually fun, unlike shelling out $30/month to go to the gym.)

A criminal in the making

(Yeah, we're not going with this one. It is hilarious though!)

My neighbor just had a tree cut down and chopped up this morning. Is it bad that I'm thinking of stealing a piece of it to make this? I love the idea of the outdoorsy-ness, plus the fact that we named our house "The Treehouse"... and it fits with the Midsummer Night's Dream theme. Of course we are getting cupcakes instead of the traditional cake, (most likely from here... OMG the love!) and I'm assuming that they have their own stands... so would it be weird to have stands for something else? (like salad)? A salad stand? Hmmm...

Welcome!

Welcome to our wedding blog! We are starting this to keep our families and friends in the know, in terms of what is going on with our wedding, show you dorky pictures of us, and also for Dana to organize some things to keep her sanity. Aren't you glad you're here?

We are!
