10 on Tuesday

1. So we still have a lot of packing to do and honestly we haven't done much of anything. We did get rid of 5 containers when Sids childhood best friend was in town Saturday but it doesn't look like anything was accomplished. :/
2. I have finally resolved my dress issue that I was having for banquet. Several months ago I found this charcoal grey Vera Wang dress at a thrift store. Its in perfect conditions just too big on the top. I had all intentions to get it altered but I didn't. So I was fretting over it. I then decided to wear the dress I wore for Chaylas wedding but that didn't end up working, so then I tried Bekah's dress from my wedding and I looked like a rectangle box! LOL I looked and looked for something else with no luck so back to my first dress.
3. The dress was originally made to tie behind the neck so I took those straps and handstitched them to the back of the dress making actual straps. Then I took some black satin material and added it to the top of the dress. It turned out pretty good or atleast I think it did. I'll take pictures Friday and then post them for you all to see.
4. last Thursday Renee and Tyler had their last blast party at the Bittners. It was a lot of fun. Renee made a video with pictures from that last four years and it was amazing! She did a fantastic job. Now if she'd only post it online for everyone to see. ;)
5. Friday we got together with Lindsay and JJ, Tyler and Renee and just had a great time of food, fun and fellowship. I'm really going to miss them but I know I'll be back to see them and everyone else.
6. Finals week...for Sid that is! :) He is just about done with college! As everyone knows I only went a semester and it just happened to have been the same time that he started this journey. When we started dating I had asked him if he even remembered me from that semester and of course he didn't. Unlike me I knew who he was but honestly never ever thought I would have married him.
8. As I look back at the past four years I'm amazed at where I am. God allowed me to meet some wonderful people. People who will be in our lives forever. One that comes to my mind at this very moment is Michael. He is more than just a friend but family! Sid and Michael interned the summer between their Sophomore and Junior year and every since he's been apart of our lives.
9. I'm sure I'll blog something special re: Mothers Day but I want to go ahead and say what an amazing mom I have! I couldn't have asked for anyone better...I've said this for that last few years and its true but she's the glue in our family! She's so giving and loving and she'd do anything for any of us girls or anyone in particular.
10. I love you Mom!!!! ((HUGS))
