Say YES to the Dress


Sweet Momma took off work yesterday and we went shopping!
(with goals in mind...haha)


I found three dresses at Belk that I am going to wear to my next three Bridal Showers



The best part...all these dress were on the 50% off sale yesterday. WHOOT.


The most exciting news is that....


my bridal gown is in!

I had my first fitting yesterday and it was amazing to finally have my dress on.


Wedding things that are in Progress:
-printing out invitations, RSVP cards as we speak
-Bridal gown fittings
-favor hunting (any ideas?)
-touching base and confirming appointments and venues


Starting my Job on Monday is going to be an interesting thing to throw in the mix of the crazy summer.


TGIF Bloggies!

¿La lluvia?


The Rain has been Crazy Lately.


I cant go anywhere with out my wellies and umbrella.

Yesterday traveling to work, I saw and was stuck in traffic by 3 wreaks caused by the rain.

I also came across a little bridge that made me a little nervous... The water was almost as high as the bridge! The road curve around to be parallel with the river and at all the low spots in the road the river was so high that is was coming into the road. SCARY.

Don't get me wrong: I am thankful for the Lords blessing of rain

But I have to be honest, I haven't seen this much rain in a long time....
I sure hope it is not a foreshadow of the rest of the summer...

I have a rather LARGE event (the wedding) happening this summer that I don't want to be rained out!


Stay dry!
