Rehearsal Dinner and Getting Ready :)

Please note the HAUTE boquet I made for Blaze's rehearsal from the bridal shower bows! Yes, I am a creative genius. Whatever. ;)

Rehearsal dinner was at 5 Oaks in Jenks! Such a gorgeous location...right on the water with a huge deck complete with Christmas lights. :) I'm trying to accessorize my life more (hence the belt and jewelry). Anyhoo, I gave my toast (but hadnt memorized it)-Blaze laughed AND cried-mission accomplished. :) Nah, really, though...I got choked quite a few times that night. I kept repeating "Get it together, Jax... Gah.."




A few getting ready pics from Marilyn Ihloff South. :) I thought the back of my hair looked cool so I opted to feature it for your viewing pleasure. Blaze's makeup only added to the glow she already had that day. :) Gorgeous! Oh, and mimosas added to the getting-ready fun since we got started at 8am! Boys have NO idea what goes into this whole getting pretty thing.

PS- Aaron counted (hey, we didnt have electricity...it was entertainment)... I had SEVENTY FIVE bobby pins in my hair!!!!
