157 Days...

I had to take John Hoyt to the airport yesterday so that he could fly back to Georgia. I cried almost the whole afternoon the day before and cried on and off all day yesterday. It's only two and a half weeks apart, but that's the most we've done in awhile. With the wedding getting closer, it's getting harder and harder to say bye. The good news is that I have almost a whole month to devote to wedding planning, getting organized, and moving. While John Hoyt was here, he and I were able to choose the wording of our invitations, go to the printer and choose the font, layout, etc., decide where we're going to register, made a general list of what we want to register for, and made several other decisions. Friday before we left, I went to Hobby Lobby and picked out our wedding photo albums (for all our extra prints), the flowergirl basket, the fabric for my veil (my mom's going to make it), and a few other things. Today, we finalized the guest list, organized it, and worked on getting addresses that we didn't already have, wrote all payment dates in our calendars (very important---I always get dates mixed up if I don't write them down), and got all my papers organized in my huge wedding notebook. I never realized how long all the details would take. There is a lot of organizing and paperwork, not just decisions and research. But it's been a lot of fun :) I'm just glad I have a few weeks to work on all this stuff.
