Dear Idaho #2,

As promised, Idaho trip number two! Except while looking through my photos... I realized that there aren't any photos of what I did because I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off the WHOLE time.

Wednesday

Got into town at midnight.

Night time. Lights out.

Thursday

Woke up.

Went to film for MMV coverage to be on the news.

Then running errands with my Mom. 

Following that, helping some contestants with interview and then general MMV practice.

Home again to get ready for my bridal shower.

A FABULOUS night with fabulous women than I love from Twin Falls celebrating my wedding.

I spent a good part of the night laughing while opening up my marriage time capsules from Young Women... "I will wear my head in curls on my head like a tiara."
"I will be tan, tall, and thin."
"The person I will marry will just like to spend time with me and be around me."

Then Adam arrived in Twin Falls.

Friday

MMV reheasal and interviews and pageantry... all day.

MMV PAGEANT! What a great night to crown. Loved being there. More to come on that later.

Saturday

Sleeping in, finally.

Loading up the U-Haul for the move.

Dinner with the family.

Drive in.

Sunday

Church.

Long drive with the U-Haul.

Bye Idaho, sure do miss ya!

Pretty productive weekend, right? Now just 6 DAYS until wedding: insects have 6 legs, the number of points on a Star of David, In baseball, six represents the shortstop's position, the standard term in office for a United States senator is six years, 6 is a lucky number in Chinese culture... and it is my lucky number!

Love,

Deidre

Dear Announcement,

More wedding details for you! Aren't you so excited?

One thing that I was really looking forward to was designing (with the help of Mallory who actually designed after I told her what I wanted) my announcement to send to everyone. It is always fun to receive announcements in the mail and to pick out things I love about them. Plus, people put you on display on the fridge. And isn't that everyone's dream? Well... maybe not. But Adam was excited to be on fridges all around. Here is the announcement and photo that Adam and I sent out.

We actually ended up running out of announcements; we didn't send them to everyone we were hoping to! I told my Mom to order 50 less than we did too... so I am glad she did what she thought was best. My friend Mallory at Minted Grey Designs designed them. She is also the one that did my bridal shower. Isn't she fantastic? Stop by her shop, she does custom anything too!

I just wanted something very traditional in regards to the announcement and one photo of us smiling. And then for the actual announcement I wanted something creative and vintage touch. It turned out perfect and everyone always says, "This matches you!" which makes me happier with it than I already was. There is a little more insight to the wedding! One week! One week!

Love,
Deidre
