Wedding Weekend!

So far things are going pretty well. I have been feeling this overwhelming sense of stress this week though to finalize everything for the wedding. I know some of it cannot be finalized yet, but it is just stressful. The biggest stress now is invitations. Arnold is doing a great job though!! He designed the most perfect monogram. Here it is :

This is going to be used on all of our designed stuff. Save the dates, invitations, as well as any printed materials at the wedding and the ceremony!!

Also, this weekend Maddie and Carly are coming from Hays to try on Bridesmaid dresses :) Francie is gonna come too, so we are gonna have a fun day out in KC. My goal is to find shoes, so hopefully I will be able to post some cute new pics next week. The bridesmaid dresses I am getting are posted below. Not in purple though, they will be in pewter grey.

Our wedding site also launched this past week, www.alexandjacque.com. check it out!!

I think that is all for now. I will post mucho details from this weekend, don't worry.

Peace, love and curls,

Jacque

Ginsburg Joins Twitter!

Well Gins is finally a member of the twitterverse! She has her very own twitter, so follow her: @ginsburg_puggle.

I know I haven't been too good about updating lately, so I have come up with a new plan. I think I am going to start updating more with wedding planning and ideas. This way, I can keep stuff I find that I really like online without cluttering my desktop and friends and family have easier access to it as well.

So for my first wedding related post, I am posting something I only dream about doing! I am not creative enough and still love the idea of paper invites and save the dates. But check out this save the date. So cute!

Short and sweet, but I have to go for the night. I promise more to come :)

Peace, love and curls.

NEW YEARS RESOLUTON

Well, obviously this blog has been lacking for about a month now. But I promise this to my loyal readers, if there are still any left, this blog is all uphill from here. On of my two new year resolutions is to update this blog more frequently. At least twice a week.

My other goal, is going vegetarian! Yes I am going to be a vegetarian for at least a year, and depending on how it went, maybe make it a permanent lifestyle change. I am really excited about it! I have just finished my first day and already made some yummy things and got some yummy groceries :)

I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday season! Mine was pretty great. We spent some time with my family in Wichita and some time in Hays with Alex's family. It was a blast. To ring in the New Year we went to see Sellout. I posted a video of them a bit ago, they are going to be the band at our wedding.

The year has started with a bang too! Whew, Al and I are already so busy. Al has started is Bar review and studying for the Kansas bar exam, which is the last weekend in February. I am starting my new job at The Oread Inn, a new hotel in Lawrence. Along with all this wedding planning is in full force and very exciting :)

Al found this video as an ode to 2009, I hope you enjoy it, it is very funny.

Also, below is a photo of Al, myself and Ginsburg on Christmas eve. All in all, a SUCCESSFUL 2009 holiday season.

Until next time, which WILL BE SOONER.

Peace, love and curls.
