I’ve hit a brick wall, my knee hurts (still) my back aches and Nikko isn’t doing too well either. Still lots to do, mainly the itinerary & the pomanders for the flower girls. All in due time… right now I need to take care of Nick, and myself. In the mean time, here are those pics of FG #2 (Maddy):
Excuse the hat head tee hee!
Quick post here, just showing my flower girls’ dresses. With/without sweater… and the Gap shoes that were only $12.99!
I’m not supposed to be spending money, but on my way in to work this afternoon (I have a half day), I saw these shoes…
Nine West “Jojus”
…in FUCHSIA!!!!!!!!
And yes, I did buy them… a size 9.5 and 10. I was wearing my tights and a pair a boots, and I wanted to make sure I got the right pair so I had to buy both.
I wanna prance around in them when I get home and make sure I have the right size. I flat out told the lady at Nine West just that, and yes, you will be seeing me tomorrow with a return! And since the also have it in black, I decided to put three pairs on hold for the ladies.
The shoes aren’t even on the Nine West website, so I will have to wait until I get home to shoe you the pics, but they are soooo beautiful!
I promise I won’t make anymore purchases Nick 
Gearing up for Canada’s Bridal Show next Friday. I went to last years show… err I mean this past January’s show. I can’t believe this Thursday is New Year’s Day! I dragged Nick to the fall show, hoping to get some good deals, there weren’t as many vendors. What a waste of money!
Anyways, We are sooo in the home stretch! We picked out my wedding band this past Saturday, and I got the call today that the ring is ready! And my search for a cupcake stand has concluded. I’ve been doing Google searches for cupcake stands for the longest time, and looky what popped up!

Invites went out on December 17th and I am sooo relieved! Just in time for the holidays! I can’t believe the wedding is just over two months away!
So what’s this about Paper-Source you may ask? Well, it all started back in August when I went to visit Nick in Victoria. I was sure to keep my eyes peeled for some wedding stuff, and my keen eyes paid off. I managed to find some fuchsia envelopes at a shop called The Papery. I had planned to use them for my Save the Date cards.
The problem was, they only had 45 envelopes and I needed 80. I pretty much cleaned out their stock and asked if they had any white… no chance. But I did manage to pick up a sample of the navy blue envelopes they had, good thing I did, because, they will come in handy later on. So I went off on my merry little way and was determined to find some fuchsia ones in Toronto.
I know, I know after I say what I’m going to say, I will start to sound like a broken record, but working for Gap had it’s perks… I had the opportunity to get a fantastic discount off of all of Gap’s brands… including Banana Republic.
I’ve blogged before about not getting the chance to pick up the ivory caplet, but I’m confident that I’ve made the right choice in having my mom, who is an amazing seamstress, make a cute opera jacket that will look similar to this:
Mine will look except it is not double breasted, and mine has 3/4 length sleeves. It will be made out of ivory brocade with fuchsia pink lining.
These cookies are from Cheryl&Co, who in my opinion makes the best cookies evar!
Cheryl&Co. Cookies for a Cure Bow Box
A while back, earlier on in my nuptial planning, I was considering using boxed heart cookies (similar to the one below). Unfortunately, Cheryl&Co no longer supplies the boxed creamed cookies, which were ideal for favours. So I kinda nixed that idea.
I did see that they did have these pink frosted “cookies for a Cure” boxed sets available for breast cancer awareness month and the good thing is it looks like they are available all year round!
Me thinks I’ll have to reconsider these. I mean, I’m still going to use the pink m&m’s, but I could buy like 50 of these hand put them onthe sweet table… just a thought.
