I ordered some cool crafty items for Oriental Trading co last night. While I have some free time during the summer, I'm hoping I can make out save-the-date mailers. I read since our Date is on a Holiday, we can send those out 1 year in advance, and that's just a couple months away, so it's not too crazy to get started with them if I'm making them by hand I think. I like the idea of a post card, because then you don't have to waste an envelope, but I also like the idea of a magnet. I'm not sure which we will go with, but I got some lace & ribbon looking stamps that can be used to dress up either type of invite. They will also work nicely with the scrapbooking stuff I've beend doing. So, it's a double hitter there. =)

I registered at JC Penny today, thanks to the advice of Kim. They hook brides-to-be up with some good information and free stuff, so it's worth it already. I even found some cool stuff on their website to add to the registry. I think we will also be doing an Amazon registry, since that's more of the stuff we always are spending our money on. But, a gift is a gift, and we'd be totally happy and grateful for anything we'd get to kick start our married life together.

I also added a wedding date countdown to the blog today. How exciting! 480 days to go! =) So much to do! teehee.

We've narrowed down the sites at least. Now we just need to go visit them and see which one we want. This is really getting official now. It's going to be such an awesome party!
