36 days!

My lovely dress
I can't believe that it's only been ten days since I wrote last. I feel like things are going so slow! I just want August to be here already...But, of course it isn't happening.

This past week, I got my dress back from getting altered. I was a little scared leaving it with a lady who had a house full of nik-naks and a creepy blown up picture of Marie Osmond, but it turned out well. It looks gorgeous and fits perfectly (uh.. for now, I should probably go on that diet I've been promising myself so that it will still fit in a month!)... My advice? Don't judge someone for their poorly decorated home, even if it does have creepy glass dolls everywhere.

My invitations also came in last week. They are darling, if you ask me. They were a huge pain to make, though. Each of them (450...) had to have a band that says "Erika and Tyler" folded (by us) on them. It took forever. Be expecting yours soon! :)))

My bridals are scheduled for a week from yesterday (July 1st)... I can't wait to get my hair done and put my lovely dress on. I'm sure it will be a very emotional day for my mom and Melissa. We haven't really been able to spend time with just us three for a while, so it'll be fun having them there to cheer me on.

Tomorrow the "wedding planner" is coming over to look at the yard where my reception will be held and also to make final decisions on the decorations we will be making. It's so crazy to me that everything is finally falling into their places. I am so excited that I can hardly stand it!

I'm sooo grateful for my parents and all of the effort (and money) that they have put into planning my wedding. They are such amazing people, and I am so lucky to have them as parents. My mom is so much fun to be around during all of this planning. Along with making sure that I look great on my wedding day, she has also made sure that Milo, Issy, Eli, Audrie, Lyla, Olivia, and Royan (whew, that was a lot) look great, too. They'll probably be the cutest ones at the wedding, let's be honest.

Oh and... That isn't really my dress. I just put it there because Tyler likes to "sneakily" look at my blog. He won't even let me tell him a little bit about my dress... Don't worry Tyler, it's completely opposite of that.
