So we officially hit the three month mark. Yikes! I sort of panicked when I realized we had only 90 more days to go. Last week I may or may not have gone to Michael's almost every day, because I felt like any tasks not yet done needed to be completed ASAP. Today, I still feel like I still have a wedding to do list a mile long, but I have calmed down. I do still have 90 days. I am happy to say most of the big stuff is done, at this point it's all the little stuff and crafting I need to work on.
