Shannon and Alan should TOTALLY have a polar bear at their wedding, to be of use to them like the horse was in Napoleon’s brother’s wedding in Napoleon Dynamite!!

If there’s anything that you and Alan can’t handle for the wedding Kat, Lem and I are here to help! And yes, I totally just volunteered them, except Kat seems to have the same idea as me in that respect.

Good luck with the weight loss goals – I would like some pointers in that respect, if you can give advice to someone who refuses to go to the gym. ;)

And yay for books and new food and adventures!! :)

First of all, the wedding is going to be a BLAST! I can’t wait! I’m totally psyched. On that note, if there’s any chores you don’t need to handle, you do have bride’s maids… don’t forget that eh! We’re here to be used and abused!

Secondly, your weight loss goal is beyond reasonable. When I joined weight watches, all I had any intention to lose was 30lbs. That’s all I wanted… just gimme 30lbs to get me back to something I feel comfortable with. Then it just took off after that. But I can’t emphasize enough that the only thing on my mind for the weight loss was that 30lbs, and I didn’t even START to think past that until I was there. Then I thought 20 more… and so on it went. But I woulda been happy just losing the 30… that was my only goal at the time.

THe books and new recipes are awesome ideas!

Just don’t forget to include goals that you KNOW you’ll achieve, or things that are just fun (like, I’m gonna have sex with Alan EVERY DAY!) On my list of things to do in 2010, I have everything from getting a driver’s license, to “I will turn 26″, to “I will pray at least once a week.” Don’t forget to add things that you KNOW you will do… I just find it helps.

All the best my dear =) And if you ever need to whine about ANYTHING, you know my number.

2. :) we can be weight loss buddies! I’m doing wii fit and Brad and I have been super good at cutting out processed foods..but then again I’m home to make dinner every day. I personally am against all weight loss programs, I think as long as you follow the food guide more or less, and avoid pre-packaged and processed foods, you’re really eliminating the majority of bad things that lead to weight gain and other nutrition issues. But alas, I ramble, and that is just my opinon, and I’ve never tried a diet plan anyways :P

3. My dear alien baby will be fine if his quilt isn’t finished by the wedding. No need to add it to your list of stresses for the big day :)

4. Mmmmm books. I’m currently on book 11 of the Wheel of Time series…then on to The Symbol by Dan Brown, and then the Dark Tower series by King…I went and bought the last three books with a gift card I got for xmas :) And then after that I think I’ll re-read the Otherland series by Tad Williams. Don’t think I got through it the first go around.

5. I’ve been considering starting a cooking-esqu blog..not like that julie/julia movie, but I’ve been trying a lot of new things and they are uber tasty and I think people should know about it :P How do I start a blog? (Or can I just keep replying to yours all super long like and pretend its mine?)

6. I totally know what you mean about Mario Bros Wii…it frustrates me to know end playing it with Brad…he keeps pushing me off stuff and into stuff. Our first go at it, we had like 14 continues between the two of us and only made it to 2-1.

7. I don’t have a valid passport either…I have one thats still in date, but it still has my maiden name on it :S

8. I like adventures…northern adventures are cold though :(

Ok I think I’m done now :) I heart you Shannon!!!

I’ve heard great things about weight watchers, good luck!

Take more pictures, we should be friends on flickr if we’re not already! :)
