Two Things

1. I didn't realize that my new shoes are a little too big. 

How am I supposed to tell how well they fit when they are tied together in the store with that little piece of elastic? I can only take baby steps! These are SO not supposed to be flip flops, but they aren't staying on my feet when I walk, so there is a little flopping going on. Oh well. I'll try to walk slow today so I don't fall on my face. No bruises a week and a half before engagement pictures!

2. 5 months from today, Brett and I will be waking up in San Diego =-)

The wedding is 5 months from yesterday, and I didn't realize it until Nikki was asking me wedding questions at Starbucks last night. I should be trying on the first sample dress tonight or tomorrow night. I was looking for ways to save money and I decided that since my mom is totally capable of making my dress, that I should ask her to do it. So a couple of months ago, my mom, my maid of honor, my niece and I went to Joann Fabrics and picked out 3 dresses that we liked. She is going to make each one in cheap fabric for me to try on and see if we like on them. She started with our favorite and it should be ready tonight or tomorrow. I can't wait to try it on! I hope I don't look hideous! I'm really nervous that I will look stupid, no matter how pretty the dress that we end with is. But this pattern was SO pretty! I really hope we like it.

Right now I need to be focusing on 2 things for the wedding. First, I need to finish gathering addresses because we will be sending out Save The Dates in a few weeks.

Also, it is SO time to get bridesmaid dresses figured out! My plan was to pick a color at David's Bridal and give the girls the option of buying one of the dresses in that color, or having my mom make a dress in the same color. But either way, it is time to figure it out! Dresses take time to get from David's Bridal, and time to make by hand! So I need to get on the ball. I am going to figure it out this weekend.

The official proposal should come any day now. I'm so excited  =-) I'm excited about the ring, but mostly about the official. I am so in love =-) I am so ready to be married to Brett. To see him smile every morning when I wake up and to fall asleep to his snoring every night.

Hopefully I will be posting the proposal story soon, so stay tuned!
