More Wedding Plans

Here is our little ringbearer. Jackson was so excited when his suit came in the mail. He seemed kind of proud to try it on. He says it is his "outfit for Aunt Shawn's wedding". We just hope he cooperates with us that night. He is 2 1/2 after all....keeping our fingers crossed , and the bribes will be in my purse.

Dapper little dude. We found some cute brown suede shoes to go with his suit.




I printed off the wedding programs and folded them and ran them through the

sewing maching with a zig-zag stitch for a decorative touch. We like things to

be unique. I don't know if you can see the stitching very well.

I sewed a banner for the drinks table using the fabrics we made into the birdseed bags. In addition to iced tea and lemonade, we are having a large wash tub full of ice and canned drinks.

So the banner will add a fun touch to that area. And we can use it again for spring decorating or picnics.
I have been collecting all kinds of old and not so appealing candlestick holders. I am painting them Heirloom White. There is a large stone fireplace with a rustic wood mantle at the site , and we will saturate it with candles on the mantle and inside the fireplace. We plan to cover a plywood letter W in moss and place on the mantle as well.

I am not getting anything productive done today, and probably won't for the next few. I went to the doctor yesterday and found out I have pneumonia and strep, so she told me to rest for the next 5 days to avoid the hospital. There is no time for hospital now. She gave me a sinus cocktail shot,antibiotics, some steroid nose spray, prednisone dose pack, and some heavy duty cough medicine, and I do feel better today--much less wheezing and I can breathe. Now if I can quit coughing.

Well, that's all for today. Hopefully I will recover quickly, because I have my daughter's wedding shower to attend this weekend. Stay well...
