Some final touches

What a successful day!  As Troy spent the weekend with the guys fishing, golfing, and who knows what else (Caseville strippers?  who knows...), I spent the day with my mom, sister, and Morgan, finishing up last minute details regarding the "girlie" stuff for the wedding day.  My sister is doing my hair and makeup, so we did a trial run with that.  I'd have to say that it worked out quite well considering neither my sister nor I knew exactly how the finished product was going to look at first -- would it be up, down, straight, curly? -- but the first attempt worked out very well.  With my hair and makeup done, we then went to try on the dress for my last dress fitting.  Not much had to be done to it besides the bustle and a little help up on top, but it was nice to see it on again with my hair and makeup done like it would be on the wedding day!  How fun!  

Hopefully those of you going got something in the mail from us with last minute reminders, but I want to add some additional information that I found out after I mailed those out (go figure...)

1)  ATV information -- We decided to go with a different company for the ATV rides for the guys.  This new company was recommended by the concierge of the resort as "the best in Cabo", so hopefully it is!  After I made the reservation, I asked him about what the guys would have to bring and he just suggested sunscreen and a camera.  I asked if they'd have to wear long pants like the other company suggested and he said no!  Apparently you'll be riding Honda 420 semi-automatic ATV's which have covered engines, so there is no risk to getting burned, thus you don't have to wear pants.  If you'd rather have a fully automatic 350 Yamaha ATV (usually given to the ladies though for easier riding and less power) then you'd have to wear long pants because the engine is not covered.  

2)  Spa information - As I spoke to you last week, everything was taken care of with the spa and I spoke to Suzanne and we are good to go with the services you told me last week.  One addition is that along with the services, they also bring a massage chair for you to sit in and get a massage while you are waiting for your services.  This is additional and not required by anyone but she said some people like to get a little back massage while they wait, so they just "throw it in" to the package.  The massage costs $1/minute if you'd like to participate and that is collected by the "therapist" after the massage. 

If you have any "last minute" questions, PLEASE do not hesitate to ask either by commenting on here, or emailing/calling either one of us.  Also, periodically check the blog the next two weeks in case there are other random things I want to keep you abreast of.  

See you all soon!
