I've had an awful evening. Our cat killed his first bird :-( I know it's his instinct but I'm so sad. It didn't die immediately which made it worse. I love our cat but I can't look at him at the moment!
CommentAuthorNicsquared
oh no smarties - i know what you mean though, i hate watching nature programmes where animals kill others, I know its natural but its not nice to watch
We have booked a tour to the spice farms and stone town on Zanzibar and three days of diving

No I never watch the kill moments and I love nature shows. We tried to help but nothing we could do :-(
Sounds amazing. Lucky you!

Oh no! Ugh dreading the next victim. Last year we got frogs. Lots and lots of frogs. He didn't kill them, just brought them in the house and played with them :-\
Ah that's lovely of them :-) We've paid ours as we booked it as flights and hotels on expedia. We're looking at shows in Vegas at the moment. H2B fancies seeing Penn and Teller. And I want to book a helicopter trip to the Canyon. Got my San Diego and San Francisco guide books at the weekend so need to plan what we're doing there too.
CommentAuthorOfficially Mrs M
ooooooo we aren't sure if we are going to do any excursions as we might just need to relax and chill plus the excursion we really fancy is two days and takes you to 2 and 3 star hotels where as ours is 4/5star its probably me being a snob but we have paid for luxery lol

Haha good plan.
I want to keep a lot of my stuff, not everything but a lot. I've got all the sweet buffet bowls and jars that I picked because i'd use them in the kitchen, and plant pots, and frames, candle holders etc. Going to be a nightmare getting it all back and sorted in time to go away but sure we'll manage.
CommentAuthorOfficially Mrs M
or ask the hotel to hang on to them or better idea just put them in a relatives car and ask them to look after them until you get back :-D

Grrr my venue are really starting to bug me, they have just finished the 18 bedrooms which should have been done in december. We agreed with wedding planner number 1 of 4 that once they were built we would have first refusal and have then had to agree the same thing with the other three. The wedding co-ordinator (number4) emailed the other day to confirm that So one of our guests rang today to book one but got told he couldnt as they werent for our party :s They dont seem to know what they are doing on reception

Ha I'm sure it will be fun. It's more of a party than a wedding really. They get married at 5, have a quick meal above a pub then evening guests join us at 7.
I want Mrs stuff too. There's some cute things on not on the high street that I like. I have hinted heavily to h2b but think it goes over his head.

i've got mrs mann bikini bottoms and just married shorts and flips flops hahaha but thats about it i think

Did you get anything nice? It's the invites in my album, had them ages but only just got round to putting them together. I love them :) I'm on the straight and narrow too, been exercising and watching what I'm eating and using the ifit... I'm definitely feeling a difference, just need to keep at it until the dress fitting! I'm going back for the dress in 4 weeks but fitting isnt until the end of august. I want it to fit in 4 weeks tho as taking my motherinlaw to see :S x

Haha!! Now thats the most sensible suggestion just!!
CommentAuthorNicsquared
I tried on a really nice blue dress thats much more of a sensible colour so may get that one instead, its a shame as i really like that colour and it suited me more than the blue - silly men :s Maybe if i cant wear the dress i can convince h2b i really should have the shoes that go with it for compensation
Oooh i forgot my evening shoes came today and they are lovely! Im glad that is sorted now

Aww I love that Nic, you look great and your waist looks tiny! How about brown - could h2b wear that or are you going for matching rather than complimenting? I definitely think you need the shoes too x
29th September 2012
Cant wait to be Mrs D!
CommentAuthorNicsquared
No we want complimenting, there is another problem i forgot to mention, h2b will not wear a short sleeve shirt - no idea why, but it limits our choices immensely, particularly at this time of year Brown is a good suggestion though may see if he has a brown tshirt just to put them together to see if it looks ok WWW suggests teal, but i want to compliment, not clash lol

lol we wont tell him :) maybe a bolder blue? Does his tie match your dress, if it does it'd tie in (boom boom) lovely.. I almost wish we'd had one now x

I love a good pun lol The tie is pretty much the perfect match to the dress but i cant work out if it goes or not Our shoot is included in the standard package with our photographer but im finding it a bit stressfull - one more thing to plan

Ooh I'll have a look Our photographer liked the combination so think we might just stick with it I went shopping again today though anyway and spent money I probably shouldnt have :s Got some size 12 jeans for the first time ever which made my day :)
Im a bit upset - h2b just told me his mum no longer wants to stay at the venue and the excuse she gave was a bit lame so not sure if something else is going on :(
