Beautiful, I must say.

Surprise Anniversary BBQ

Brandon and I threw a surprise anniversary BBQ for my mom and dad on Sunday night. Their 25th anniversary is tomorrow but all of us are working so we had it on Sunday. It was so great! My auntie brought a cake from Borracchini's which is where they got the cake for their wedding (and mine as well). Delicious. Then my cousin Michelle and I decorated it with shells, since their second home is the water. They loved it. Technically it wasn't a surprise for my dad. We told him so that he could make sure that they were home. But he still loved it. Mom was TOTALLY surprised. The two of us went shopping for her outfit for the wedding and had lunch together which was really nice and then by the time we got home everyone was already there and as we were pulling into the driveway she said, "what are all these cars doing here? I think the neighbors had a sleep over." I tried really hard not to laugh. Then she walked in and everyone was there. Again, so great! I think there were about 20 people there and that was awesome! I am so proud of myself.........and Brandon for doing all the bbq-ing. (pictures will be coming shortly)

Wedding is coming up in 18 days!!! AAAHHHH. I am going crazy and my face is breaking out because I am so stressed about it. I feel like I don't have everything ready (I don't) and it's really starting to get to me. Deep breaths. I can get through this. Still not at my goal weight. Rawr rawr rawr.
