Excitement is in the Air Again

It's weird...the excitement of the wedding comes in rollercoaster spurts. Some days you're ready for all the planning to cease and to just get back to "normal" life, while other days you're kind of gitty about it all. Today is one of those days that I'm happy to have the wedding planning distraction to be able to turn to and get my mind off of other things.

Today for instance, I've been working on figuring out what kind of arrangements I want to put together for my bridal shower...which is next weekend! I know...why am I doing the flowers for my own shower? Well, simply put...I know I can get them way cheaper than any florist will charge my mother and my aunt. Also, I know what I want and I know that I can do it all fairly quickly. Plus, I think a part of me just feels weird if I'm not contributing some sort of help with the shower. I know it's for me and I'm "not supposed to do anything", but I can't in good conscience just show up to something that is for me and not help with it in some way.

Oddly enough, throughout this entire planning process I keep having this feeling that I'm forgetting something. There's so many aspects to a wedding, and so many "great ideas" along the way that it is sometimes difficult to keep track of what you've actually decided to move forward with and what was just an idea that you dismissed at one point or another. Doesn't matter how organized you are!
