1) breakfast
2) dress in shorts and blouse
3) go get hair done
4) come back and pick up Elizabeth - Daddy drives us over to my mom's house
5) spend an hour or so going up the wall and out the window with nerves - also dressing and doing makeup, and keeping Elizabeth out of anything delicate
6)GET MY SISTER MARRIED

The rest of the day is a bit of a blur after that point. I'm not sure what's going on. I figure I'll just go with the flow. I mean really, how bad can it be? I'll be with fifty of my closest family members (no, that is not an exaggeration) doing something I've always wanted to do.

I need to remember to breathe.

I was a little annoyed at the time, but in retrospect I'm glad Alanna didn't ask Heather and I to sing.

My speech refers constantly to Alanna. She's been introducing herself to people as Lann for several years now. I wonder if Marc's family will know who I mean?

I've seen advice in a number of wedding books to not ask someone to sing if they've already got a billion things going on that might make them nervous and/or overwhelmed.

As for today... well, you know, because you've been a bride. Something will go wrong. And it will still be okay. And the day will be glorious. I'm excited for you all!! Have FUN!

I'm looking forwards to seeing some pictures if they get put up. I'm sure you're going to all look incredible and have a really good time.

There will be pictures, but not right away - our digital camera is on the fritz, and my uncle hasn't emailed us his pictures yet. He will, though, and I'll show you pictures soon. She was a beautiful bride.

Perfect - not too hot, not too cool, nice and sunny. It was a lovely wedding.

You do know you're not supposed to say that, right?! *grin* Remember to breath -- and have fun!

Thanks! It seems I didn't tempt fate, or if I did, she had pity on me, anyway. :)
