Just wondering

Was Mom's dress light green at your wedding? It sure looks like it from the picture

My wedding pt 2

But Joseph's dad did not

I was just noticing

Interesting thing- dad always wore to match the groom

Mom and Dad and Anne

I think Mom's dress is really light pink

Dad and I

Joseph and I

So I'm not totally brain dead

Bridesmaids in light purple

Ok, picture time!

Frank was in grey

Not uggh blue

OK so here is the deal...I just sold another dresser in less than 24 hours (for $160) which was uggh blue with birds. And with Alaina's tuition, Genevieve's tuition and $900 deposit to the caterer, I only need to do that like 6 times a month :-) BUUUTTT
I am not posting said uggh blue dresser with birds I am posting this:

It is not quite done.
I am debating continuing the red color through the separations. I have battery operated tap lights for the headlights. I need to put the pulls on as the windshield wipers, the turn signal lights, etc.  But I still wanted to show you ...the UGGGLLLY dresser now.

HAHA

I just realized that my last two posts are - ARRGGH and UGGH
Made me think of Romans 8:26

Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

Not UGGH Blue

I got this beauty for $30. ;)
This one I will try for the volkswagon look . Though it may be harder to sell- we will see.
The separations between the drawers are actually indented and wavy (does that make sense?)

My question is:
All the examples I have seen do this type of VW bus (with the white V)




BUT this style would be easier considering the wavy section which could read as the vent


Do you think in the end, this would read as LESS volkwagon bus - iconic

ARRGGHH

Need to vent. No one to vent to....
William has 4 T-shirt that he constantly rotates through (wearing them twice each per week). All other t-shirts he has deemed unacceptable for anything but sleeping. Today was pajama day- personally I hate pajama day and do NOT see any benefit from it. But I mentioned to him that if he did NOT want to wear pajamas to school (which I can totally understand) he needed to at least give his 4 "good" t-shirts a rest and wear one of his "only appropriate for sleeping" shirts. I told him this last night before bed, I told him this morning at breakfast--at 7:30 , he had a complete melt down when I told him that if he kept his "good" green t shirt on for school today I would NOT be cooperating with football at 8:00 am Saturday morning. TOTAL utter melt down (his , not mine)
Here are the totally unacceptable (according to William) options:

wedding colors?


So this is the picture of Amy's friend's wedding-
Amy was asking if this was close to what Alaina had in mind


Alaina was thinking maybe slightly darker red

but with these flowers?
and she pinned this as the cake
