The blog understands even if others don’t – Is that really true? It’s just that the blog can’t talk back – that’s only if no one comments.
Anyway, I feel like I am not so cool anymore. I have a group of friends that I have known well for about 8 years. All of a sudden I feel rejected because I invited them to my anniversary party and over half of them didn’t bother to respond with a yes, no or maybe so. Out of the 15 people that I invited, only two will be attending. I don’t know why I feel so bad because people have lives and I am not a priority. I guess I just wished that more of them would have made an effort to support me. I just don’t know why I am taking this so personally because it’s not that deep. Now I am walking around here sulking about something stupid. But I guess that I just needed to get it off of my chest to tell the blog – because it understands. LOL

Here’s a link of a courthouse wedding in Oregon. I love how people are being creative with their elopements. This couple got married alone, then gathered with a small number of family and friends for a quick toast. Then they hosted small at-home reception a few days later. How nice!!!

I follow The Finer Things blog from Fine Stationary and I had I requested an inspiration board for my party.
Here are a few things that I plan to do:
Invitations – I wanted to take the time to do handwritten notecards, but I threw that idea completely out the window. I made my own invites using a monogram that I ordered from Pink Design Events.
Tablescape – Since this will be a dessert buffet I am think of using a table layout very similar to something that Amy Atlas has done. My mother let me borrow her long white floor length tablecloth and I will be using my own clear platters and glass cake plates. I am thinking of using red flowers as suggested on the inspiration board.
I love her idea of the carnation wreath to put on the door as I wanted to do door monograms, but we will see.
Another suggestion was the white organza headband but my hair doesn’t go so well with headbands – I have a lot of hair. I actually plan to wear big hair that night.
I love the candy buffet, but there will be so many other sweets that I will let that go this time. But I do plan to order white cake bags so that people can take their dessert to go if they wish. However, take out boxes would be cute. We will see.

I had a dream last night that while I was at work, I had a hard time breathing and no one could help me. Well as soon as my alarm went off I could breathe again. Scary, huh!!! And I don’t know whether or not it was real.

So this Sunday my husband and I decided to host a mother’s day dinner at our home. I had a lot of trouble figuring out what to cook because I don’t have that many dishes outside of spaghetti that cook very well. Both my mom and mother-in-law love soul food or southern food. So here’s my menu for Mother’s Day:
Honey Baked Ham
Smoked Turkey
Mac N Cheese
Green Bean Cass
Skillet Corn
Dinner Rolls
Strawberry Short Cake
At first I was not looking forward to this dinner because I didn’t have a menu that I was comfortable with, but now I am definitely okay with it.

So I was going through my email today looking for a draft and I found this email that I wrote to darling husband long before we were married. I think it’s cute – all of the underlined text are songs of Luther.
============================================
Songs of Luther……..Reflections of Me & You
It’s So Amazing how you spend so much time Searching and waiting for someone to Treat You Right. At some point you get tired of all the Creepin’ and being caught Right In the Middle of Grown Things.
You Don’t Want to Be a Fool so you Wait for Love because after all the hurt and the pain you still believe in the Power of Love. Little Miracles (Happen Every Day) and oh was it a Lovely Day when I decided to Stop to Love. I was such a Busy Body, but I had to Get It Right.
I met someone who Knocks Me Off My Feet. He’s my Superstar and when I am with him I Want the Night to Stay. He has Better Love than I have ever experienced and Heaven Knows that it’s Never Too Much. Any Love that can Give Me the Reason to want to say Never Let Me Go deserves to be my Endless Love.
So I take this time to say:
Hello Dear,
As I sit here thinking about us, I realize that The Impossible Dream has come true. You had me Going In Circles from the start. There Is Nothing Better Than Love and For You to Love and actually tell me means that there is something special about what we have. I am here for you and When You Call on Me/Baby That’s When I Come Runnin’ ….It’s All About You. Now That I Have You, I Know that I’m Keepin My Faith in You.
Only You Know How to Make Me a Believer in love. You See Me and love me for who I am and that means the worlds to me. The Night I Fell in Love with you, I don’t know the date or the hour but I do know that The Closer I Get to You the more I fall in love with you. I never feel Like I’m Invisible because you give me The Glow of Love. Don’t You Know That I haven’t stopped smiling? Promise Me that we’ll never say that we Once Were Lovers but Here and Now we will be together Forever, For Always, For Love.
Love Ya,
Aint No Stoppin Us Now were on the move.
