Did I forget anything?????

The bride and groom not even bothering to come and see our now 7 week old daughter or bothering to send a card or call or email...... Priceless!!!!!!!
Sorry just pissy 'cause I just finished booking our hotel room and spending more money on the f'ing wedding that I don't want to be in. Could have taken Madison to Disney World for what we have spent. Thanks for listening to my rant!

Oh I take back the no email. I got one from the bride that she was meeting with a jewelry consultant from Macy's Herald Square about the bridal party's jewelry. She must be smoking crack if she thinks I'm spending more on stuff I'll never wear again. Did I also mention that her last marriage lasted for 3 weeks????? If not for the fact that the hubs has been friends with the groom since he was 8 years old I would have told her where to stick her wedding plans by now.

That is NUTS. I am planning our wedding now and would NEVER and haven't asked anyone to do those kind of things. We are having ZERO attendants because we want everyone to just have a good time. After all he and I are the ones getting married. GEEZ....she needs a reality check. HOW RUDE.... Your daughter is BEAUTIFUL. I love the sleepy baby picture.
