Majorly needed update....

Well, my Mom hasn't gotten out of the hospital yet. She's in a place where she has nurse support but they're teaching her to get back on the track of doing things herself. She's been doing intensive physical therapy to get her to use her legs again. At this point, I just want her to come home, wheelchair or whatever, I just miss her. I know that's not what she wants, I mean she does want to come home, but she wants to be able to walk and fully be able to take care of herself. This has made me think of how much she really does mean to me and how I should really focus on spending more time with her because I wouldn't know what I would do if she weren't here. She's been wanting to get me my shower gift, and since it's coming up on June 7th, she doesn't think she will be able to make it. She told me to take her card to bed, bath and beyond and get this beauty off my registry....

I'm seriously in love! The only....problem....is that it's wrapped. Yea, you read right. My Mom made me get it wrapped so I could open it up at my shower and everyone could see that she got me this amazing gift! I <3>

Yesterday, I had a wonderful shower at work. I'm not one to be the center of attention or anything so it was a little uncomfortable at first. But, I snapped out of it and realized I should enjoy. I will have to upload pics later because I'm blogging during my conference time and I need to pick up my kids in about 10 minutes. The decorations were my wedding colors, which surprised me to think people were actually listening to my responses when they would ask me wedding questions! lol One of the ladies made me a 3 tiered cake and she made it look like a little wedding cake. Soo cute!

There was talk about a honeymoon. Well since Edgar's family is coming from California and staying for a week we didn't really want to leave them here and not spend time with them. Sooo, we opted out of a honeymoon and decided we would go somewere fun and exciting to celebrate 1 year. Well, then lately we've been talking about possibly going to Vegas for about 3-4 days. Anyway, some girls were asking me about it and I was telling them. A little backstory, there's a pre-k teacher who is probably in her late 60's and she's been widowed for a while. She has 1 daughter but she doesn't come around for whatever reason so she really has no family and no one to spend her money on. She came up to me and told me she would pay for mine and Edgar's honeymoon!!!! Uhhh... yea you read it right she would PAY for it. I was in such shock and awe, I couldn't believe it. She said she would talk to me about it today because she figured I was just out of myself. Sooo, now I think we really are going to go to Vegas for like 3 days, right before Edgar goes back to work. I didn't want to take a huge honeymoon because we wanted to spend time with family, so we're going to Fly out on Friday the 18th and spend the weekend there and come back on either Sunday or Monday-we haven't decided.

So there's my recap. I'll update later with pics, I hope!

P.S.-Edgar's on speaking terms with his parents again. LONG STORY!!! I don't even want to begin to explain the whole background on that one. But, we went over yesterday and we were telling them about the gifts I got at my shower and the plans for my family shower at my grandma's. I can't believe the wedding is just soooo close I can almost touch it.

Such an amazing experience....

I don't know where to begin because there has been SOOOO much going on lately. I've been MIA because my Mom got really sick 2 weeks ago, that the DR's made us call everyone we possibly knew to come see her because they said she wouldn't make it through the night. That was super scary, especially after dealing with everything with LeeAnn (My sister) passing away in November. So we called everyone and they said if she came out of the heavy medicine she would have a slight chance of making it. Well, fast forward to today-she's getting moved to a rehab clinic so they can get her up and walking and doing things again and she will get to come home in 5 days! I'm super excited and love my Mom to death, I couldn't imagine life without her.
Besides that, my nephew graduates on Friday....like in 3 days Friday!!! I can't believe it. This kid is the absolute love of my life.....yea he's right there with Edgar! He's going to do amazing things and do great in college. We've been getting invitations together and out and we've been planning his graduation party too.
End of the year madness at school is just piling up and piling up! We have soo many meetings about how to properly close our classroom down. We have field day tomorrow and a field trip to Zilker on Friday. There's no school on Monday and I just got an e-mail saying that the ladies at work are throwing me a bridal shower next Wednesday! Between all this mess, and stuff I need to do before the end of the year I don't know when I'll have time to finish. As much as I don't want too, I see coming in on Saturday and Sunday is something I......er we(edgar and whoever else I'm going to guilt into).....are just gonna have to do!
Yesterday Edgar and I went to the apartment place to fill out the application and put down the deposit for our BRAND NEW place!!! We will be the first renters there because the complex is soo new and I can't be more excited. We aren't moving in until July 15th, which is only 4 days after the wedding...am I crazy!?!?! There was actually logical thinking behind this plan, like having extra help to move, just taking our wedding gifts there, starting a new beginning together.....but I think it's going to be overwhelming.
Oh yea, and I also got hired to work summer school, and we get paid on July 2nd. The last day of summer school will be July 1st and we will only have 10 days until the wedding. The RSVP's are coming in....slowly. The deadline is the 1st of June and we got our first wedding gift in the mail yesterday! It's all just soo surreal, but exciting at the same time.

Had to post

We are at 60 something days...yes I forgot and yes I'm too lazy to count or figure it out!!! But, the reason for this post is because our invitations are OFFICIALLY OUT!!! I was supposed to go on Friday after work but I got caught up and didn't make it in time. So I started handing out the ones over the weekend and then the ones to CA got sent out today. Whew! It was a great feeling and the postal lady gave me the WORST STAMPS EVER!!!! Then she was in a rush to stick them on that she was putting them on upside down and sideways.....egh oh well. I tried not to stress over it and I was just really happy to send them.
In other news, the only major things to do are make some final vendor payments, a couple of DIY projects, programs(which falls into the DIY category) and finish up getting groomsman gifts and OOT bags. I can't believe I'm almost down to the 2 month mark. It's kind of making me anxious that my ticker will say 1 month and something. I'm really excited to see all the family from CA and especially to get back their RSVP's because even though they have bought their plane tickets...it won't actually hit me until they actually send them back and I have them in my hands.
Okay, I gotta go sulk because my Celtics lost! Love ya.
