What a great 3 day weekend! Mikey went to Cedar Creek Lake this weekend, so Mom and Mycah came up to stay with me for a girls' weekend! Mom and I had our own little scrapbook retreat. We turned the media room/play room into a scrapbooking room for the weekend. We had tables set up with all of our supplies and our working areas. We finished 34 out of 42 pages! We also found time to shop, lay in the sun, do some swimming, cook some great meals and watch movies. It was a perfect girls weekend.

Once I found out I was pregnant, we knew that we needed to get my wedding scrapbook done in the next 10 months. Once the baby comes we know we will have plenty to keep us busy. Of course the baby will need a scrapbook. All throughout my wedding planning, we kept momentos from everything. We kept swatches, cards, invitations, and pictures we took of all of the events. It was so much fun going through everything and organizing it all. We only made two trips to Hobby Lobby.

For those of you who don't know what a wedding scrapbook is, my version is basically a recap of all of the events leading up to the wedding. We began with the engagement, covered all of the wedding planning, showers, bachelorette party, bridal portraits, rehearsal, rehearsal dinner and went through the brunch on the Sunday after the wedding. We spent very little time on the actual wedding and reception which will be covered in our wedding album. By the way, we also met with Kevin on Monday to go through all of the changes for our wedding album. I am very excited about it. It will be beautiful. So anyway, back to the scrapbook. It was so much fun reliving all of the events, and we only have another day's worth of work, so it should be done just in time to begin the nursery =).

I have included some pictures of the pages. Only those of you who are as avid scrapbookers as my mom and me will appreciate them as much as we do, but I love sharing anyway! The first one is when we were dress shopping. The 2nd picture is of my bachelorette party, the 3rd one is of my bridal shower and the last one is of our couples' shower. It was so much fun to play off the invitations to all of the events. Anyone is welcome to come over and relive all of my pre-wedding events with me through my new scrapbook =).
