(Hopefully, I'll get around to blogging about it.;)) I've been shopping and decorating up a storm for two weeks, now. but, not for me....only a very tiny bit done for me. At TJ Maxx, I found a lovely red tea mug with the very same motto on it for $3. I think that I'll need it.<br /><br />Delores, this has been such a crazy year for me. Last year, I didn't even decorate MY tree (the traditional one - it's hard to explain - the kids have one, now, too) until after Christmas and that's how it's gone all year long. This year, hopefully, things will be better. They already are! I tell you all of this because, in the meantime, I am so enjoying looking at what you've done and, quite honestly, sharing your joy. Look! I have a big smile on my face! Your home is just lovely!!! =D <br /><br />Love, Me xxooKaty Noellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08972227249393814417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763730258323026627.post-8065916078330050502011-12-01T19:14:18.900-08:002011-12-01T19:14:18.900-08:00Concentrate on the WEDDING!!!!

I am sure I would, but it sure makes me go into a panic just hearing about it. We now have 3 birthdays in December, a grandbaby, a DIL and my oldest daughter. That throws me into enough panic! I agree, yoga breathing always carries me through and taking one day at a time.

I know the wedding is going to be glorious. Give yourself some yoga sessions, deep breaths, and relaxing soaks in bubble bath.

My DD was married on Dec. 23rd & it was truly magical, with the church all decorated for Christmas. We even had miniature Christmas trees on every single table at the reception & a harpist playing during cocktails. Such a special time of year for a wedding, however they seldom feel like they get to celebrate their anniversary properly, due to 3 kids now & all the holiday fuss. They wait until later in the winter to get away together.<br /><br />Sending you ~~calming, soothing vibes~~<br />Hugs,<br />RettRettabughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09974677657528087286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763730258323026627.post-54653727466392962732011-12-01T10:03:05.502-08:002011-12-01T10:03:05.502-08:00Loving that adorable little teapot.

My DD was married two and a half years ago on a plantation just to the north of us with more than 350 people in attendance. Of course, it wasn't at Christmas time but the best advice I could give is stay organized and focused and let people help when they offer. Good Luck to you and your family, I am sure it will be beautiful.<br /><br />Carolyn/A Southerners NotebookSoutherncookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17205120984091304271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763730258323026627.post-72162481762441742292011-12-01T09:23:54.272-08:002011-12-01T09:23:54.272-08:00Delores...I am so confident you will pull this off...Delores...I am so confident you will pull this off!
