Activity for Now mrs. K

Yay, saving money! I went to a bridal fair and won free hair and makeup for myself and up to six other members of the wedding. That means that (if the trial goes okay) I will be getting my hair and makeup done, along with all my bridesmaids (3), my...

When I say snow games I'm not talking about ones like snowball fights and making snow angels and snowmen. No, I'm talking about the other ones. You know them, trying to drive in bad weather. My two faves: Release the brake and pray-our area is full...

The trolls are back! I think that I'll just stop logging in on the weekends.

My biggest problem with our videography package was that it was one of those ones where they boil the whole day down into a 6-10 minute video to include only the key highlights of the ceremony and the reception (aka-vows and toasts), but the package...

If you are using wine or liquor bottles in your centerpieces and need to remove the labels-if you soak them in soapy water for 2 hours it will make the labels easier to peel off. If you then leave them overnight a lot of the adhesive will dissolve...

My cousins are all much younger than me so to me they have always felt more like nieces and nephews. There is a 13 year difference between me and my next cousin (the youngest just started school this year). I have four college age cousins. two...

I was going to say father/daughter dances but I know we have a few guys here and I didn't want to discriminate. What are song are you using for your parent/child dances and why? for father/daughter we are using "Just Fishin'" by Trace Adkins. When I...

I heard a song the other day that I think would be perfect for our wedding. It's in a Samuel Adams beer commercial, and I don't know who sings it. The words that I remember most from the commercial are "I am overwhelmed by you." Can anyone help? ...

We had our first meeting with the minister that is going to marry us. I'd say that I wasn't sure what to expect. The only Unitarians that I know are FH's father and step mother. It was great. They are so open and inclusive. I'd say if you don't have...

Looked at my dashboard today and realized that we are under 300 days (281 to be exact). The time just keeps flying by. Have been asking the FH for his guest list and still no list. My guest list is all done and so is my mothers. Still nothing on his...

I did two things that I've never done before this week and I'm so proud of myself for doing them myself-not asking someone else to do them... 1) I mowed the lawn. I know this doesn't sound like much of an accomplishment, but in my house growing up,...

So, so far I have had very little drama when it comes to bridesmaids. My mom has been the main source of all my drama. I was supposed to have three bridesmaids-my best friend, my SIL and FH's cousin. Now, FH's is upset with his cousin and I don't...

It's been a while since I asked, so all you Nebraska and Iowa brides, chime in...
