I always make excuses as to why we do not post much... but no more excuses. We are going to try to post something everyday up to the wedding. t-minus 31 days.<br />
<br />
Today I thought it would be a fun idea to post a few of our RSVP responses. I searched and searched for the madlib rsvp idea and did not come up with many pictures or ideas. Well we went ahead with the idea anyway and could not be happier. Here are a few:<br />
<br />
Super excited to have fun advice from family and we will be able to save it in a scrapbook!-<br />

We have nearly an entire wall that is empty and a cabinet FULL of pots and pans so we were thinking pot rack. Well the pot racks we liked were either a) too large for the kitchen or b) more than we wanted to pay. So we thought "hey, we could build one..." so we went to Google and searched out some ideas. There are a lot of good ones out there, and this is ours.</div><div class="mobile-photo"><br />
</div><div class="mobile-photo">Josh's parents had spare rebar at their house and we cut it to the sizes we wanted. (If you don't have any spare lying around you can find it at any home improvement store and</div><div class="mobile-photo"> it is really inexpensive and we only used one full length bar). We spray painted the rebar black to give it a more finished look. </div><div class="mobile-photo"><br />
</div><div class="mobile-photo"><br />
</div><div class="mobile-photo">The only other pieces we used were u-hooks to put in the wall and lay the rebar on, s-hooks to hang the pans on the rebar, and leather if we needed to adjust the length or size for the hook. </div><div class="mobile-photo"><br />
</div><div class="mobile-photo">Total project cost about $25.... </div><div class="mobile-photo"><br />

So, rather than baking two cakes for both occasions, people would just bake one big cake and save part of it to be eaten at a later date when the squealing bundle of joy arrived. Eventually folks warmed to the idea of giving the kid their own newly baked cake, but the custom of saving a portion of the wedding cake far longer than it should be saved and then eating it and deluding oneself to believe that it actually tastes good is one that persists to this day....who knew!</span></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-751921659075287725.post-84066570392873333602011-12-01T21:48:00.000-06:002011-12-01T21:48:19.781-06:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Happy Holidays from our family to yours!!!

Well back in the day many thought it was all fun and games to kidnap the bride. By standing on the right side it kept the right hand, in most cases ones sward hand, available in the event of a jealous attack and to protect from kidnapping...<br />

I guess eventually the girls got jealous and wanted to party too?!? Also, in many cultures, the groom historically kidnapped the bride with the help of friends... hence moden-day groomsmen... </span><br />

During the Roman Empire, couples were not considered legally married until</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"> they...........</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">(get your head out of the gutter.... haha)..... until they shared a meal together.... So a couple shares a meal, then the next couples want to share a meal with family, then add family and friends, coworkers, the the town...... No wonder receptions are such a big deal now!!! Thoughts??? </span><br />

We are so sorry that it has been nearly 2 months since our last post. Oh how the time flies and we are sure it will only go by faster from here on.

We are officially registered at Dillard's; Bed Bath and Beyond; and Something Special in Covington, TN. The Dillard's and BBB registries have our cookware, china, and a lot of other items.

</tbody></table>So the last updates were while we were on the way to Austin. For those who do not know... we went to Austin for two reasons: to have a little vacay and most importantly for Potter-A-Thon. It was absolutely amazing. Potter-A-Thon was held at the infamous Alamo Drafthouse beginning at 3am Thursday morning. All previous 7 movies were played consecutively with HP7.2 starting at midnight!!! This equaled about 24 hours of Harry Potter. It could not have been better. The theater was clean and comfy. They allowed us to bring pillows, blankets, or whatever we wanted to be comfortable. This theatre is also equip with a Full kitchen/bar and each theater had servers that would bring you basically whatever you wanted. We can not get over how nice and organized the event was... honestly we kinda so not want to go to the theaters in Memphis now : / <br />

</div><div><br />
</div><div>After Potter-A-Thon we got to spend some time in the city. We went to UT Austin, the Capital, and 7th and a lot of other places. We also drove up to Lake Travis on night and enjoyed the sunset over the lake. It was a much needed and great trip! </div><div><br />
</div><div>Let's see.... Oh I know!!!!! Candace got Josh and her into the early access/beta for Pottermore... see Candace is magical!!!!! hehe</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKovyJ8sjA6gT2OJYUAyx3AADSt92c_estiSJSYcPedAlQrnnNEHEv0VUkyKhvkzh4FmwJ1SYr9ZdVFo2XCFjUtOs8NgPUWQsEkmhtvXrqqAx3lHsNJadtKEqQOfYc5ghSuAuubKV0wFs/s1600/pottermore.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="238" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKovyJ8sjA6gT2OJYUAyx3AADSt92c_estiSJSYcPedAlQrnnNEHEv0VUkyKhvkzh4FmwJ1SYr9ZdVFo2XCFjUtOs8NgPUWQsEkmhtvXrqqAx3lHsNJadtKEqQOfYc5ghSuAuubKV0wFs/s320/pottermore.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div>Then Candace and her family went to Michigan City/Indianapolis to see Lawrence,her brother, compete in finals. See he did this thing called DCI and its marching band on steroids... or "Marching Bands Major League" as they like to call it. Complete craziness. He basically lived on a charter bus or in a gymnasium all summer and marched. The Open Class Corps Finals (kinda the minor league I guess....) had finals in Michigan City and were also allowed to compete in Indianapolis at World Class Finals. One of Candace's bridesmaids, Amanda, is also very into DCI having marched both a open class corp then on to the world class corp Carolina Crown where she aged out (went alum so to say...) and then went onto being assistant tour manager this season... Finals week consisted of open class prelims (which were rained out) open class finals, world class prelims, world class semifinals, and world class finals. At the end of the week all the Corps that made it into finals all came onto the field-too many to even get on camera... it was really cool: </div><div><br />
</div><div><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsSyV_gHXAjQ-6cueZeDIVn9RNQ_l8F2IWweULZq9wP7Tpdww6JxZL_11kcxrIg0BHR64aEi4kIsIFPi49oUpVmZe-0gUEjedp44vVw3XdDRGCarHFg4CgvcY0ZPK_jG6VJCRJEgIanQQ/s1600/DCI.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="238" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsSyV_gHXAjQ-6cueZeDIVn9RNQ_l8F2IWweULZq9wP7Tpdww6JxZL_11kcxrIg0BHR64aEi4kIsIFPi49oUpVmZe-0gUEjedp44vVw3XdDRGCarHFg4CgvcY0ZPK_jG6VJCRJEgIanQQ/s320/DCI.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div><br />
And that is about it up until now... We have so many more pictures I would love to share with you guys except they are all on Candace's computer which decided to crash :( hopefully they will be able to pull the pictures off and as soon as everything is fixed we will post!!!!<br />

Sorry to not have posted in a bit. I'll catch ya up- Our 4th was great! We were able to enjoy time off, do some yard work, swim, spend time with family, and go to lunch and the zoo with good friends! <br />
Since the 4th we have been getting everything ready to go to Austin. We are headed there now. (literally- I am doing this on the road in order to not fall asleep due to the less than exhilarating Arkansas scenery...) Anywho, the main vacay event is the Potter-a-thon at the infamous Alamo Drafthouse, beginning at a bright and early 425am! All 7 movies perfectly timed with HPDHp2 beginning at midnight Friday! It is also complete with waiters, full kitchen, and a variety of Hogwarts/Hogsmeade themed foods and snacks. We're pretty stoked, well I think Josh is only looking forward to the new Batman trailer. We are going to keep posting more pictures/video on all of our Austin adventures. For now check out our Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes tshirts! <br />

We thought it was going to take a lot longer than it did, and be a lot harder of a decision. However, thanks to a great bakery we are all set as far as the cake goes. We just have to wait about 10 months before we can share it with all of you ;) <br />

I know we have been away from the blog a while :( We have just been busy with work, school, life, and all that. But we just have a bit of time before Josh has to go work a wedding at Heartwood Hall so we thought why not do a little update about that... so here you are:<br />
<br />
Built in 1840, Heartwood Hall was originally part of 5,000 acre plantation estate. It now sits on 25 beautifully wooded acres. Listed as "The Miller House" on the National Historic Register, Heartwood Hall was built by the Miller family as a gift for their daughter. The Heartwood Hall residence as well as the grounds are on the National Register. The grounds are on the Historic Register due to the fact that during the Civil War, the Union soldiers camped on the front lawn and occupied Heartwood Hall as a Hospital. Luckily, the Union Soldiers chose to preserve Heartwood Hall as their residence. A similar estate, also built by the Miller family as a wedding gift to another daughter, was burned to the ground.<br />
<br />
John and Denise Suthoff bought the house 8 years ago. Since acquiring the house, they have added on an additional 3500 square feet to the original residence for a total of 7000 square feet. During renovation the Suthoff's added a gourmet kitchen, courtyard, large garden, and pool area. They also joined several servant houses scattered across the property to create an 1800 square foot Guest House updated with modern amenities located at the back of the property.<br />
<br />
John and Denise went to extensive planning and pains to maintain the original character and integrity of the property during renovation by using reclaimed wood, brick, and glass. The flooring used in the addition to the original Plantation Home was salvaged from a New Orleans cotton gin built during the 1800's. They recently finished renovation to the Barn which was constructed from reclaimed wood derived from the property. With housing tons of air and heat, full kitchen, various amenities such as a coat check and bar area, as well as the ability to seat up to 360 guest, the Heartwood Hall Barn is unlike any other in Western Tennessee.<br />
<br />
The Suthoff's held their niece's wedding on property after the first major renovations. It was at this point they saw how beautiful and relaxed the environment was and knew it would be the perfect place for weddings. Since then, Heartwood Hall has been featured throughout the mid-south and has become a highly sought after venue for wedding ceremonies and receptions.<br />
<br />
See below for a video of pictures taken earlier this year during some of the Barn renovation.<br />

We would like to thank Phil Ramsey Photography for making our session memorable and of course for the AMAZING pictures.
