obligatory last post

Well I don’t really have time to write but I felt like I should blog one more time before the wedding. I am here in my apartment and all is quiet. I am enjoying this little bit of alone time. I sent all the bridesmaids off to help set up for the rehearsal dinner, and I am just waiting for Beth to get here before we join them.

It is my pleasure to announce to everyone a new blog that has hit the blogosphere. My best friend Beth and I were talking recently about all the new blogs we discovered through the Blogs of Beauty Awards, and how ecnouraging they were to us. However, we lamented that there weren’t many blogs that really fit our situation – we’re not mothers (yet), we are married (or almost married), we both work full-time, yet we’re fairly conservative with our beliefs….
