A few minutes down time

The wedding is today.  I have a few down minutes so I thought I would let you know that everything is going great.  Yesterday we had the rehearsal dinner.  It went well.  They ran through the ceremony several times, and I think they have it down perfectly.  I also think Aubree will steal the show.  She is going to be a little darling as the flower girl.   She looked so cute last night as she walked down the aisle spreading the fall leaves.  What a little ham!

The dinner went well.  I was very proud of the dinner I served.  I could not have done it without the help of my dear friend, Mona.  She was a huge help and made the dinner a success.  There were about   40 people there.  Grandma made the desserts, and they were a big hit.  We are lucky to have such a good support system.  

Today is a little hectic.  Steve is down at the EF building helping with the last minute touches.  He just has to be there.  He is pretty tired already, but he is always bullheaded.  I know I have  told you that before.  He said he would not stay long and come home to rest before we have to be there for family pictures at 3. All the bridesmaids are there getting their hair fixed.  They start their pictures around 2 or so.  I'm not sure how long it takes to do hair, but they wanted to be there before 12.  The wedding is actually at 6.

Koleen and Shawn came down Thursday night.  Shawn's care is broken down.  We had to take it to a local shop this morning.  He has a busted Y joint or something like that.  Of  course, all the mechanics and parts places are closed on Saturday.  The place we took it tried, but could not get the part until next Tues.  That means I will probably be making a turn around trip to Columbia in the morning.  They  have to be back there by 3 since they have commitments .  It may change between now and then, but that is how it stands now.

I have still been hitting the gym every morning.  I went yesterday and did my big rotation.  It took a little over an hour.  I went this morning a 7 and did the elliptical for 30.  A great workout.  I think I am beginning to feel a little difference.  I sure do like it.  Believe me, it is really difficult to get up at 4:30.  It is not so bad once I am there;  it is the actually getting out of bed that is the killer.

I will do my best to post tomorrow evening to let  you know how the day and night went.
