Wishing, and hoping, and dreaming, and praying...

I wish my dear Meister was home tonight.

Then I would be able to show him all the things I bought today for the wedding...

 well the bridesmaids.

He could also help me pack. 

But most of all. I could see him.

I hate his overnight shifts.

I Hate...

• Not knowing what is to come.

Opie's is 1!

Baby Opie 

Big girl Opie!

 

Call me lame, or crazy, I really don't care. 

 I made a cake for Opie's 1st birthday! 

Technically her birthday is tomorrow (12/10/2010), but Andrew and I work

so we celebrated today!

 I found this really awesome recipe online and they gobbled it up!

I carved the 1 from a carrot! And enjoyed every minute of it!

It smelled so very good, but I was not about to try it!

*****

And of course I bought them stockings!

Andrew and I don't really do our own stockings yet, even though I REALLY want to. 

So I spoiled my dogs. 

Get over it. You know you wish you were so lucky.

Please oh Please!

Dear Michael Buble,

Please come sing at my wedding.

For free.

Love,

 Audrey

Venue

I found somewhere I like. 

Correction. 

KIM DUKE found somewhere I like. 

Actually I LOVE it. 

It's called "Cinema Ballroom"
The building used to be an old movie theater, and has been turned into a Ballroom and Salsa dance hall.

It is so awesome.

 Part of the balcony and Reception area- which will look VERY different.

Overlooking the Dance/ Reception floor

Receiving room/Kids room.

Of course the room will look completely different.

I love this place!

Dreaming of a white Christmas

 2010 tree.

Red/silver



 I know its not even Thanksgiving yet, but I frankly don't care.

 I love Christmas and I want to be able to enjoy it as long as possible.

 I wish I had more decorations, but in time I will.

 And, it can snow now. 

 I mean really snow.

 But just once. 

 I have Christmas off this year!

 I better not be sick.

 Last year I had to work, and ended up having to call in sick.

 Christmas with the Meisters was not very enjoyable for me last year.

 I hardly remember it.

 This year better be more enjoyable.

 I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and get to spend it with those you love.

Wedding Blues

 So. Who wants to plan our wedding?! You 
 can for free!!

I don't like the decisions I have to make
 right now.

I don't want to have to weed through a thousand venues to find one that is a decent
 price,

 AND what I am looking for.

 I don't want to choose the colors, I don't 
 want to choose the center pieces.

 I want to look at photos and say "yes,
 that's what I want, make it happen".

 Where is a free designer when I need one?

 And I want Michael Buble to sing at
 my wedding.

For free.
