Amy Jo On The Go!

Since my wedding is taking place outdoors I tend to worry about the weather for that day.  Granted, we have tents so if Mother Nature decides to not be cooperative, we’ve got it covered.  But, as all brides, I want a gorgeous, sunny day with little humidity and a slight breeze.

weather.com has a wedding planner where you can track your wedding day weather.  You can also look at typical weather for that day and past history.

The average temperature for July 10 is:  High Temp:82°F and Low Temp: 59°F

Over the last 3 years, this has been the weather on that day:

• 2009 Partly Cloudy High 82/Low 63
• 2008 Mostly Cloudy High 80/Low 58
• 2007 Partly Cloudy/Wind High 93/Low 71

I must say, I’m pretty happy with these results.   Although, I could definitely do without it being cloudy.

Dear Mother Nature,
Sorry to disturb you, but we Michiganders have something we would like to say. First of all, thank you for allowing us to keep our electric bills lower this summer. No need to run the A/C when it’s only in the 60’s. I mean, who needs sunshine to brighten their day? Secondly, thank you for the abundant amount of rain you have blessed us with over the past few months. It sure was nice of you to turn my backyard into a mud pit. But, I don’t mind. I didn’t really plan on spending much time outdoors this summer anyway. And lastly, thank you for giving us a 4 month break from the snow before blessing our presence with it once again. Not only do you normally bless us with snow for Thanksgiving and Christmas but it looks like you will be blessing us before Halloween. How very kind of you.

Mother Nature, thank you for going out of your way to make sure we Michiganders had plenty of nice weather this past year! Now if only you would be kind enough to give us wind chills of -30 again this winter. It was such a pleasure being stuck inside the house for 4 months straight.

Sincerely,
Amy Jo

PS ~ If it seems like you don’t have many friends left in Michigan, don’t take it personally!

So this brisk 32 degree weather kicked my butt into gear this morning! I am so glad I brought my plants into the garage last night since we had a pretty good frost when I woke up this morning. I even had to break down and turn on the heat so my poor fiance wouldn’t freeze to death at home while I was gone.

Try to stay warm and have a great day!

It’s a little chilly here in Michigan today…….60 degrees and

Oh how I wish I had one of these lovely numbers from J Crew to throw on
