Activity for Lyssa

I've passed my content tests, I've gone through certification training, and I finally had an interview with a local high school last week. I tried not to be overly excited about it, because as a first year teacher, I KNOW it's hard to get that first...

I love the WW website in that it gives the guests a way to give you a little message along with their RSVP, and it's also awesome that it gives you their email address! But I've had a couple of guests who have said something like "I'm so excited for...

I went with my FSIL (who is one of my BMs) and my FMIL this last weekend to pick out their dresses for the wedding. It was super fun because FH, FFIL, AND FBIL went with us. I like doing things with just the immediate family. Anyway, we walked in the...

I decided a long time ago that the guys would wear grey suits (or tuxes, it doesn't really matter to me) but what I REALLY want is for them to nix the jackets and wear the vests and long sleeve white shirts. I kind of have a thing for vests. FH looks...

I know we've all had the discussion of drive time between the ceremony and reception, if they're at different venues, but what about the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner? My wedding venue (ceremony & reception) is in a very small town with very few...

I finally got my fifth star! I know it's silly, but I'm super stoked about it! Haha. It's nice to have my addiction acknowledged, you know? Any other little victories this week that are silly but you can't help celebrating??

I'm totally stuck. I have four BMs. Two are reeeally girly, one is only kind of girly, and the last one would probably go without makeup or having her hair done if she could get away with it. So I'm really trying to decide what to give them as gifts....

I'm totally curious to see who is having a bridal photography shoot. I remember seeing lots of these in years past, but I can't remember seeing one lately so I wondered if this has fallen out of fashion or something. Haha. I'm really up for going to...

Does anyone else still get super excited because you're getting MARRIED? Amidst all of my planning (and stressing), getting things together, organizing everything, and generally being awesome at this whole getting married thing, every once in a...

FH and I are going to finally get our registry started on Sunday so I'm reading up on things we need to know and most of it seems like common sense: register for items in all price points, put the extravagant items on because some retailers give...
