Let the countdown begin....

Now that October is in full swing, I can start counting down to some very  important dates.
1.) Jim coming home from Altus! Currently he is scheduled to be home on October 15th. I know this is subject to change, but we are in the single digits!

2.) My Charleston Bridal Brunch hosted by my very best friend Lauren Coburn. This is also taking place on October 15th, so I will be in sensory overload all day!

3.) The Alabama/Tennesse game on October 23rd. Jim and I have started going to one game per season and this year we chose the Tennesse game. I am super stoked for multiple reasons. A) I get to see Michelle and her family. B) I get to go to Tuscaloosa and spend time at Bryant Denny Stadium C) I get to watch Alabama football from the Alabama sideline since we splurged on AMAZING tickets!

4.) THE WEDDING! November 5th is fasting approaching! Only 27 more days to go. I have so much to do like rounding up the last of the RSVPs, finalizing the menu/bar, wrapping the attendants gifts, assembling the favors, printing the programs.... Augh! I get stressed just listing it all. Luckily, I am a type A personality and I have gotten almost everything taken care of with the exception of several last minute things. Most of which require a final head count. As my other married friends know, rounding up your wedding guests can be frustrating! But all in all, it will all turn out to a great party!

Other fun things of note:
A. Champ is returning from Grandma camp on Tuesday. I have really missed him, but I did enjoy having a clean house :-)
B. My Household shower in Grundy took place on October 1st. It was amazing. I got so many nice gifts and got to see lots of people that I haven't seen in years.
C. My Bridal portraits were on October 7th. Thanks to my awesome hairstylist, Kami, I looked just how I had pictured. Then my amazing photographer, Nadean, went all out for some (what I hope to be) stunning shots. I can't wait to see the proofs!
D. Alabama is still undefeated! Roll Tide! Unfortunately, the biggest game of the season is on our wedding day! AUGH!

Welcome October! I am so happy to see you!
