Hello, my friends.  It's eight days before the wedding and we're doing a little inside work today.  We're shampooing carpets!  Yes, when a big event is scheduled you clean your house from top to bottom as if the wedding were taking place in your living room!  I've wanted to shampoo three rooms of carpet for over a year.....now it gets done!  The wedding is a great way to get projects accomplished that are spoken of, but never completed.  Thankfully, my husband is still off and he commanded the carpet cleaner and I worked on other details....like those place cards....I'm going to be dreaming of place cards....

Anyway, it's been a full day of putting final touches on the table seating arrangments, getting a screen door repaired and finally sitting down to a nice, long dinner out at Applebees and then propping our feet up and watching movies with a huge bag of popcorn!  It's been raining off and on for several days...tomorrow is predicted to be sunny, so we'll return to the outdoor projects.  It's fun, but it's starting to wind down...we continue to pray for good weather in only eight days!
