May Day!! May Day!!

No, it;s not my call to help... today is actually the first of May! I'm thrilled for so many reasons: 1) that means we only have 5 months until the wedding and 2) it means I only have one more full month of school/work!! Woo-hoo! Can you think of a better reason to shout MAY- DAY?!

In wedding news, I was recently given the privilege of attending the tux fitting for our handsome groomsmen! Yes, I have officially infiltrated the world of manhood. Honestly, the most amazing thing was how little they cared about the actual wedding. I learned all about the playoffs, got caught up on my frat gossip, and listened as they bantered about who could last for the most push ups if someone lost a bet.

Not once did anyone say- so what are we wearing?

I was amazed- well, no I wasn't. They were guys. I guess I just expected someone to at least pretend for the day that we were there for a wedding. The sales girl wasn't too much help either, the poor thing was about 12 and trying to assist two bridal parties at once. So that left me. My lovely Groom wasn't too bad, he checked in with me every now & then to make sure I was doing okay & somehow we eventually managed to get the suits picked out. Everyone made reservations & paid & was happy... until I went back 2 days later & changed my mind on almost everything.

Ok- no judgements yet! In my own defense, the tuxes looked completely different when I saw them! How was I supposed to know that what appeared solid & rich in the catalog would look ribbed & off in person? It's not like I've ever done this before. Imagine the huge bowl of crow I had to eat when I explained it all to AJ. Lucky for me, I'm marrying the most wonderful man in the world & he was ok with it. I still haven't told the Groomsmen or anything but I'll leave that to the Groom! = )
