So, for our wedding, that was 3 years ago ( yikes) I wanted to save some money, so I decided to make some of my own things. I love art, and I am very crafty, so when I saw some different things for weddings, I decided, hey I can do those too. So, I made our own church programs, and I made these programs for the reception that told the story of us, how Bob proposed, who our bridesmaids and groomsmen were, and a special thank you. There was a lot of cutting involved...and thats why I love my husband...because he is awesome and did the cutting. So, for my friend Josie's wedding, I told her I would make some for her. I am suppose to be a bridemaids in her wedding in two weeks. She is one of the friends i first met when I moved to MIchigan. She is such a sweet girl, and is also a teacher. She lives in Arozonia, and is marrying a super nice guy, who is a PE teacher. They are really good together, and I couldnt be happier for her. I wish I could make it to the wedding, but travling is just not in the picture...we are trying to keep this little guy healthy!!!
So, I am making these programs for her as well. Her wedding is black/bluish green, with pink...so I made hers a little different. Again, there is a lot of cutting, and once again, my awesome husband did it all, without even complaining!!! Today, I am spending the day gluing and adding the final touches. I love the way they turned out.
I would love to do this kind of thing all the time. I wish I had a professional printer...I keep begging for one...I think the whole ( $5000 ) one is out of the question...but maybe if I beg enough!! Ha ha! Anyways, I love creating different things...I make the flyers for our community all the time, and the newsletters for my parents business. I also made some programs for my BFF Holly and Jason's wedding. It is just a lot of fun!!
Brady is kicking a lot today. I love it...he lets me know he is still growing in there. We took his heartbeat last night, and again, he kept kicking whereever bob put the little stick thingy. It was so cute. He really loves his daddy! He really reacts to his voice and touch! I love it. Every morning when Bob leaves for work, he gives me a kiss and puts his hand on my belly...Brady always kicks for a while after that. I love it! I cant wait to watch Bob be a great daddy! This might just be Bob's favorite football season yet!!! Again, thanks for the prayers...I keep praying for no more problems...and a healthy 14 1/2 weeks!! 2 more weeks until 28 weeks...and i can breathe even more after that!

That's such a great idea! For our wedding programs we just ordered blank ones online and printed them all off at home, which was still a lot cheaper than having them print them for us (plus that made it easier for any last-minute changes which we luckily only had one of from one of our musicians). I love the fliers you make for the neighborhood stuff. What program do you use? I am sure you will also be doing some cute birth announcements once Brady's born!
