I can't believe it....



Everyday is getting closer and closer to Ashlynne's baptism on December 1st. I thought I still I had several weeks left and it's next Saturday! I can't believe how quickly this month has gone. The last week has been hectic!

*Spent several hours making the invitations last week.
*Dear sweet husband addressed & stuffed all the envelopes
*Purchased White dress for before and after the baptism
*Called all family members to let them know the invites were on their way...(since they went out later then I had planned)...

I still need to plan for the luncheon afterward and find a pianist for Ash because she is singing "Teach Me to Walk in the Light" and we still haven't gotten one.
Not to mention I have to also buy her tights and shoes and other incidentals.
Oh! and clean my house and ready it for all the family. I feel like there is so much to do. On top of that Ashlynne has a goal to finish the Book of Mormon the day before her baptism and we are about 3 chapters behind.
I think when all is said and done the day will be fantastic and the spirit will be felt so strongly that all the stress of planning for the big day will wash away. But in the mean time I wish there wasn't so much to do and so little time. ;)

How awesome and what a great time for Ash. She may never remeber all you did to get her ready for this day, but the most important thing she will take with her is the spitit she will feel. Snaps for Alida...your a great mom!
