Just Breathe

Well, we didn't make it to the movies last night. I was too exhausted from our meeting yesterday with our wedding coordinator up at Peddler's Village. It all turned out fine in the end, but I've learned a lot about myself while planning this wedding. I often think I'm overzealous about details but then you realize that if someone isn't, things will start to add up and the cost can get out of control. She put our mind at ease and spelled things out more clearly after we talked. I think the best thing is that John and I are on the same page with what each other wants out of the day and that is the greatest feeling in the world!

Last night we ate out at our local (and pretty tasty) Mexican restaurant, then watched 3 hours of our newest favorite show The Tudors on Showtime. We never had Showtime before (just HBO) but John called up Comcast Cable and yelled at them after our bill was getting out of control. They dropped it nearly in half and then threw in Showtime and Starz for a whole year for free. Tiger! We started to tune into The Tudors when the first three episodes were rentable from Blockbuster. Now we are playing catch up. It follows the life and times of King Henry complete with scandals, betrayal, religion, politics...LOVE IT!



Yesterday I also got an email from my brother Matt living the high life out in LA. Turns out that not only is Ms. Depandi, his boss, flying him out for her wedding over Labor Day in Italy but he is also being featured on a Style network special about her event as her wedding planner. Uh-huh. Wedding planner. Now, precious Matt calls me with tons of ideas for my wedding that mirror hers. Only difference between the two is about $100,000!

Anyhoo, here are some pics of him taken from his interview for the show. I'll be sure to let you all know when the special airs in it's entirety.
