2 months

So yesterday was the two month mark to the big day. As slow as this engagement has gone I have a feeling it's going to be picking up quick now. We're very busy with trips and getting little details done. My mother has been a busy bee. Since she's off from teaching for the summer she's free to do whatever. So far she's made over 48 quarts of jam for the welcome baskets, 150 chair back covers (only a hundred more) and will be making at lest 30 red table runners. I told her she doesn't need to do all that, but she likes it and she's enjoying herself, so more power too her.
People keep asking me if Adam is getting nervous. And don't take this the wrong way, but I think it's the other way around. I'm nervous about all the changes that will happen overnight. I'm nervous about everyone having a good time at the wedding. I nervous about having to write a different name when i sign. A name that is so common, so black and white, so not me. But it will be and i will be proud to be Adam's wife, I really can't wait. He's a good man and will be a wonderful husband and someday, father. But it's just all this change, all at the same time, that will knock a little air out I think. Hopefully I'll stay standing and smiling...and i will make it down that aisle without running my mascara.
This week I'm going to finish up the little details and hopefully get my dress to alterations people. I'm hoping it won't take longer than they said and won't be more $ then they thought....but we'll see.
So for now, that's my update...not much of an update, but it's where i am :)
