Man Of Honor
Bride's Honor Attendant ?!?
lOl my brother Patrick will by my 'Man Of Honor' or what Google Preferred to call it "Bride's Honor Attendant"
My Brother is 19 years Old and attends West Chester University in West Chester, PA . We are 2 years apart in age and we grew up together so why wouldnt he be my Honor Attendant? He knows me best and hes family. I know he would keep me in mind 100% of the time when planning things for me. He's not selfish and he knows how picky I am. Of Course for my 'Matron Of Honor' I would choose my cousin Tara who at the time of my wedding will be of course married. I would rely on Tara to plan my Bachelorette Party, and Bridal Shower of course because she is a woman I wouldnt expect my brother to plan thoughs events. I have not asked my brother nor my cousin if they would be my Honor Attendants I am looking for a cute creative way to ask I love the cookie Idea ** which I will post in the pictures** but do you think that would be a little cheesey to give to my brother (of course a Tuxedo Cookie!) or should I go more simple with a card? Still thinking of my bridesmaids, im waiting on my FH to think of all his groomsman so I can match his number * I have my fingers crossed that he doesnt pick to many man* ** See below @ MOH for old pics of me and my cousin, i have no recent pictures of us since she lives in SC** |

Vacation
Bahamas
Feb 18 marks the Vacation to the Bahamas so I can meet FH extended family. Its pretty exciting for numerous reasons FH was born and raised there before coming to the States when he was 7, I never been to the Bahamas, I havent been out of the Country for over 15 years I was 7 when I went to Trinidad and Tobago to visit my family with my Grandparents, and it has been quite some time since I had a relaxing vacation and this is also the 1st REAL Vacation me and FH had. Granted weve been dating for 7 months and engaged for 5 months.
But I am very excited I took my Passport picture @ CVS 2 days ago and im waiting for my mom to mail me my birth certificate ( the one I have is all chewed up and basically ready to fall apart I dont believe the agency would except it lol ). |

Need to Quit
Help!
Gum Or Patches?
Its a New Year Im starting to work out again Im ready to quit. The question is what is the best way to quit. I know that I can NOT quit cold turkey. I need some help - although perscription medication is just out of the question so I was seeing what you ladies think is better/ easier the Nicorette Gum Or the Nicotine Patches. I always had sum excuse not to quit but im 21 years old I might as well quit now until my health becomes an issue. My FH has been nagging me to quit for the longest time and I really want to surprise him this month. Not only will it make him happy but it will save us tons of money $8.00 for a pack of ciggarettes!!! Jeesh. So my Question to you Ladies is GUM or Patches ? |

Bride 2 B & Maid Of Honor ?
Asked to Be Maid Of Honor for Cousin
Ok so this past week my cousin Tara had asked me if I would be her Maid Of Honor I was both shocked and excited. I was shocked not because she asked me but that she had picked me over her 3 younger sisters and 8 Other female cousins ( yeah we have a large family my mother is 1 of 9 and I Have over 30 cousins lol ). Of course I accepted I feel so Honored and of course I Love her to death. So not only am I planning my wedding but also helping out with her wedding which is May 8, 2010. Her wedding will be held at 'Shannon's Country House' in Southern New Jersey. Her color is pink but now shes having second thoughts and is thinking about blue.
I am hoping that I can help her out as much as possible without getting side tracked and stealing her ideas or even worse giving away my ideas for my wedding :o/ I am still very excited and looking forward to having such an honor in helping her plan her big day wish me luck and if anyone has any great tips on how to be the best MOH I would be more than Happy to hear them! ** Her wedding dress picture is also posted its from David's Bridal |
