Well, I left for Clemson yesterday after spending a lot of time with my mom talking about what needed to still be done while I was gone. It was hard to come back while there was still so much to do at home and I felt bad leaving the extra burden on my mom.
She took off yesterday after I left and had a very productive day (and only gave me a little bit of a hard time about it.) She spent over 2 hours with an invitations specialist getting the invitations ordered and working out some color matching. We solved the problem of the different shades of colors by purchasing a spool of ribbon in each color so that we can compare and match without having to just remember the exact shade of the color. She solved so many problems last night! What an awesome mom... who needs a wedding planner. The manager at the tux shop where we ordered the invitations even offered her a job! Dad was the all supportive husband and helped her with the very detail oriented task. Although, by the end of the night he had dubbed her "mom-zilla"! My dad helping my mom paid off when they went to the cake shop today and he got a chance to taste some of the yummy selections that we had made.

Actually, it was 3 hours at the invitation store, but who's counting? And I do object to the mom-zilla comment!! I was VERY nice - otherwise, they wouldn't have offered me a job, thank you!
Ha! I LOVE your mom's comment. The blog is great. Glad you made it back safe and sound. Let me know what I can do to help =)
