With our wedding just over a year away, I think can say that I beat procrastination. I have everything but the transportation, hotel and makeup booked. I've even booked a TTD session for Nov 15/10. It's great! I also have the photog (Todd from Bently & Wilson), and the ceremony paid for in full. I have the deposit to our TTD photog Mike Lichtenwalner paid as well.
Craig and I will be married at A Special Memory wedding chapel. Our reception dinner starts at 7 pm. The After Party will start at 9 pm. A few things that I'm still trying to decide on are: Elvis? Should he make an appearance at the After Party? Should my guests be met at the door to the suite by a Show girl or 2? Should I forego the stretch SUV and use the chapel's limo for wedding party pick up? Should I rent a coach that seats 30 and have the wedding party travel with the guests? hmm... so many questions, not enough answers yet.

Happy Thanksgiving!
I've only cooked one turkey in my life, and by all accounts, it turned out pretty good. It didn't turn out like the Griswald's turkey on Christmas Vacation, and nobody left my house with food poisoning. Like I said, it turned out pretty good.
With our Thanksgiving weekend upon us, it is again my turn to cook the turkey. We are keeping our dinner small this year. My fiance is still grieving the loss of his mother and doesn't want a big 'to-do'. I know exactly how he feels. The last thing I wanted when I was grieving was to be around a lot of people and trying to put on a happy face. When in reality, I wanted to be nowhere.
This turkey is different. I'm completely on my own for this one. In my last shot at the turkey, I had many experienced turkey cookers to help me along. I wish I would have paid more attention to the tutorials!! Happy Thanksgiving!
