SO MUCH FUN!

Today was so much fun! And super productive, I might add, and we all know that I like to be productive!

Today I met with all of bridesmaids, well the ones who could make it, (which was 5 out of 9... not bad!) to get their dresses ordered. First we met for lunch at Chili's and it was SO nice to just sit and talk! My bridesmaid, Jenn, is getting married 3 weeks before me, so we had tons of wedding stuff to talk about. It was so nice to get opinions from all of them, and my mom was there too, and she always makes me feel better. We were at Chili's WAY longer than I thought we would be, but I had a really good time.

Then we drove five minutes down the road to the little shop, Celebration, that is on Harry Hines next to Sam Moon. I was nervous about showing everyone the dress because I was worried that it wouldn't look right when people tried them on, or that they would think that the color was too bright. Well if they thought that, they were good actors! They were all so nice about the color! And oh my goodness! Everyone looked gorgeous in the dress! I ordered dresses for the girls who couldn't make it, so we got all 9 dresses ordered today!

AND, Jenn found a veil that she likes. It was GORGEOUS! Maybe a little pricey, but less than $100, so maybe the cheapest she will find.

So all things wedding went really well today.

AND we may have found Laura a new job! She couldn't make it today, but Jenina was talking about a position that they need to fill at her job and she wanted someone with court reporting experience. It sounds PERFECT for Laura! It's not a done deal, but it is looking really positive!

So what a great day! I needed a good day! I've had a rough week. Hopefully I will keep my attitude in check for a while.

I'm really looking forward to next weekend! We are going apartment hunting again, AND we are going to research our honeymoon AND we are going to decide what we need to register for so we can start window shopping AND we are going to start thinking about what the groomsmen will wear! Woohoo!

Thank you Lord for sweet days with sweet friends.
