It's disgusting up here. It's a brown and grey slushy disgusting mess. And it's friggin cold. Ew. I hate hate hate winter. And it's ONLY JANUARY!!! AHHHHHHHHH. On top of that, the City of Providence apparently doesn't think that people walk outside. At least that is how it seems considering not a damned sidewalk has been cleared by the city. It was dangerous. treacherous. it was downright deadly trying to walk to the train station today (a light 1.5 mile walk in freezing water, ice, and massive snowbanks). I busted my ass at least 4 times. And lemme tell you, nothing worse that falling on your ass in front of a line of total strangers in their comfy warm vehicles who you know are laughing and pointing at the chubby girl in a giant brown puffer jacket and skinny jeans with a massive wet spot on her ass who is cursing rather violently at the whole situation. You try it. See how it feels.
Suck it winter.
On a better note. My sweet nephew, Sir Kellum Tracy is coming home from the hospital today, making me hate the whole "Living in New England" thing a little be more. I want to hold him and cuddle him and gush like my whole family is doing down south. I am so jealous I can't take it!
I am so jealous I made a wedding inspiration board to keep my spirits up.
I hope you like it. And it brightens your spirits the way it brightened mine. Now, if my ass would just dry...

I said yes.
To The Dress.
Yup, I officially have a wedding dress! It's pretty and girlie and super feminine...lace... I am so in love with it. I might post a pic, I might not. But right now I am sooo happy with it, and that's all that matters. The best thing is I LOVED myself in the style and fit of the dress just the way I am now, post holiday food frenzy bender and all, so there is no pressure to loose any weight. I can just relax and focus on the 1000's of DIY projects that I have!
And to go with the dress? A wedding band. A lovely jewelry store was closing in North Carolina, so I was able to purchase a beautiful diamond band for a steal (and you know me...) The hardest part is not wearing it now! It looks perfect with the ring Matt picked for my engagement ring...I can't wait to married to him (not just so I can wear my pretty rings...I promise).
We have a baker too! We are doing a small wedding cake for Matt and I, and cupcakes for our guests. La Rita not only has great cake, but she has a big personality as well. Plus she is a Johnson and Wales Alumni, so Matt ok-ed her, even though he missed out on the cake tasting...but as a Fat Bride, I'm pretty sure I know good cake when I taste it, and La Rita got a FBS seal of approval. We have been talking about incorporating the Rustic and Vintage theme into the cake and cupcakes...here's what Matt and I are really digging...
We just love the how beautiful and simple these are...and how freakin YUMMY they look. And isn't that what cake is all about? Being GOOD? I kinda want to lick my computer screen, but a)it would not taste like cake. and b)that would be weird.
But still... they look REAL good
We are hoping to work on the stationary portion of the wedding planning, but I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a site that does photocards? Like if you did a photo christmas card...who did you use? There are SO many, and we want to use a good one...help?!
Sorry it's been so long, I have been all over the place...opening and closing a show, Christmas in NC, waiting on my nephew to get here (yeah Kellum, I'm talking about you, COME OUT ALREADY!!), but now that I am back in my normal world...whatever THAT means, I can get back to bloggin...again, any suggestions on photo card sites, please let me know!
xo!
