6 months to go!

I can't believe it's only 6 months until our wedding! Time is going so fast and there's still so much to do. I had this uniquely wonderful concept for our Save-the-Dates and I was so excited to see this project through to completion. But we've had trouble scheduling photos and it seems like there's barely time to get them in the mail, let alone try and design them from scratch.

However, I had a clear realization last night, one that A and my MOH helped me realize and feel more comfortable about. There are some projects I'm just going to have to let go of. Aaron and I have so many wonderful photos already and the concept can still be unique without having every single element I hoped for. So, good bye dear Save-the-Date. I'm not going to think about the hours I spent lying awake planning you out in excruciating detail. I'm just going to convey my ideas to my dear MOH and let her take the reins. She often knows my thoughts better than I know them myself and I'm so excited to be surprised with what she comes up with.

It's time to take another look at my "countdown calendar" and see if there are tasks I can eliminate or delegate. Hopefully that will get rid of some stress. Also, A and I are planning a "wedding date" in December so we can schedule tasks and try out our vegetarian recipe. In times like this when I start to feel overwhelmed it's good to "talk it out" and remember that I'm still on schedule and organized. It's almost Thanksgiving and I can say with certainty that I am very thankful for a wonderful support system as I plan for this event. Thank you! I couldn't get through this without you. Seriously.
