Two weeks to the party and everything is starting to come together. Looks like we'll be able to afford Beer and Wine for everyone. I was able to get some inexpensive decorations from Hobby Lobby's 60% off sale.

My dad pulled me aside the other day just to let me know that their 40th anniversary is coming up and I should get them a card , you know, because mom is sensitive about this stuff.

Surprisingly, my brother is being very helpful. I feel like I'm planning a wedding except this is more stressful. My wedding was immediate family only with a pot-luck at my parents.
