Wedding, St. Patrick's Day, Crafts











Wow! I have really SLACKED the past couple of months. My nights consist of my favorite TV shows, a little bit of crafts, and an early bedtime. (And no blogging as you can see.) You ask when do I plan my wedding? Well.. I really don't. I do a "little" planning each week, but I realized I am being a procrastinator. I am usually SOOOO not like this. However, I am not a "bridezilla" or anything of that sort. I know this may seem weird, but I don't really care how my wedding happens, or anything like that. (OK, I care a little bit) But I just want to be MARRIED. I have waited 25 years and that is all I want to do. I am hoping the rest of the planning will just fit in to place. Haha, OK I will be honest....we are on the right track for wedding planning and I am doing more planning then I just admitted. We are doing what we can when we can. I am not letting it get me "down" or completely stress me out. I am trying to plan an AWESOME wedding as easy as I can. Thank goodness for Rylan's sisters Megan and Kobi...They are my angels! I cannot wait to be their sister! I feel so lucky to have such great in-laws.

My mom has helped me with things for the wedding the last few months. My brother decided last month he would get married this month (POOR MOM!) My mom has done an excellent job planning/paying for two weddings. I owe her EVERYTHING. My brother's wedding was absolutely wonderful and I am so happy for him and Sara. Our family is chaning so much and it is so much fun! I feel like all we have been doing is hanging out and having a great time with the family lately. His wedding was very windy (sorry about the hair-it was REALLY windy).

I am not crafty or creative. However, something inside of me has wanted to "make" things lately. I have been making fabric flowers to incorporate in my centerpieces at my wedding. These pictures that you see are only one type of fabric. I have a lot more fabric to cut out and make. Thanks to Megan (Rylan's sister) we are getting these done slowly, but surely. I will try and keep them posted as I make them! I would love to know what everyone thinks! I also have been painting house decorations. I am in LOVE with the Wood Connection. I buy all of the wood and then come home and paint away. These are not the cutest things, but I have to start getting my creative juices (or lack there of) flowing somehow!

And then there was St. Patrick's Day. "Lucky" the Leprechaun visted our classroom. He destroyed it, tipped over desks, and left us cookies and drinks! My students believe in Leprechauns. Their reaction went a little like this.


"I know Leprechauns are real because Miss Bingham would NEVER mess this room up! She is too much of a clean freak! She hates things out of order and not-organized." Haha.. I LOVE MY JOB!
