Miss

My friends have beautiful children and I enjoy seeing pictures of them. The problem is I do not know what to do with all of their pictures. I do not want to display pictures of kids in my house when I don't have my own children yet. When the pictures first come in the mail I put them on the fridge, mantel, or our bullentin board, until my husband takes them and puts them in my mail pile. Sometimes they are displayed for a month, and the mothers of these children do get to see I recieved their kids picture. Question is once I take them down can I just throw them out without feeling guilty? I have shoe boxes full of my friends kids pictures and I never care to look back at them, but I know how much it cost for pictures to be taken, and feel bad throwing them out. Any suggestions besides letting them collect dust in a shoebox under my bed?

I am recently married and my husband has a beautiful simple wedding band. He works very hard with his hands and the ring poses danger in his field of work. Also he has only worn his ring for two weeks and it already looks old and is very scratched from working with it on. His idea is to get his ring tattooed on his finger. Niether of us have any tattoos, nor beside this band plan to get any. I just want to see some pictures or ideas of what a tattooed wedding band will look like. He was thinking of it being writing, he thought of writing our last name on his ring finger or the word forever or true love.

If you have seen this done or know where to see pictures of it let me know. I would also love any suggestions.

My Fiance's brother is looking for ideas! He has asked me if my future husband has hinted towards anything. The only thing he has said is " I don't want a bachelor party, I don't need to go see strippers..." I told my man he could go golfing but he isnt interested, doesnt want to go paintballing, not into dance clubs. So his brother thought local casino. Prob is to go there will cost each guest$100. and that is too much for some. Need ideas please!

We received a few gifts off our registry in the mail. One before the invitations even went out. (This person is a young male who is not attending the shower.) And a few others from relatives who will be at shower. Not sure when shower is. Anyway.... Do I send a thank you note now so as the gift giver knows they were received? Or can I wait till after the shower?But when I thank them early do I say wedding gift? Our wedding is at end of Oct.

I live in Southern NH, On the border of MA. My wedding is in Oct. I don't no where to look. We don't want a tacky, goofy DJ.

I need about 200 apples for my wedding how much do apples cost?

My 2 grandmothers are widows and my fiance has one living grandmother who is also widowed. I would like to honor these wonderful ladies at our wedding. I was thinking special flowers. When can I give them to them? After ceremony? During reception?

Anything nicer then flowers that can be general for all 3 ladies there ages are spread out from mid 60's to late 80's

The few places I saw carmel apples for sale in bulk was a little expensive for me. I only want to spend $2.00 max per favor. Sounds cheap but thats all I can afford, because we have other gifts for guest. Anyway... If I can not find a cheap place to make my apples I would make them myself. Ihave done it before for halloween parties, they came out great. My problem with that is...How long can I store them? Could I freeze the carmel apples? Iknow the candy ones will crack. I will have so much to do around the time of my wedding I just want to get these cute favor ideas done. Thanks

Just bought 2 6 packs of Killians I see a date Jan 23 07. They are dusty bottles. Should I return them and get some Sam Adams?

I am getting married this year and I have a HUGE family. I need to cut children out of my invites. I have teenage cousins living with their parents. When I send an invitation to my Aunts and Uncles how can I say your kids can't come? I know I have a few aunts that will assume it will be alright. The person it is addressed to will have a guest check off. Please help me say this in a nice way . In the invitation I say it?

I dont like suspened ceilings (Drop ceilings). I need some alternative ideas for basement ceilings that are inexpensive. The finished basement is going to be a game room with big leather club chairs, pool table, bar, and it has a nice fireplace.
