Our Registering Adventure

Last Saturday Dave and I got to go to Target and Bed Bath and Beyond to register. We found that it was more challenging than either of us expected. There were several moments of frustration, but many moments of excitement. Here is a video that chronicles some of the fun we had.

Yes to the dress

Well folks, after a 6 month search, I finally chose my dress! Phew, what a relief! I have been to nearly every bridal salon in the area and have tried on entirely too many dresses. It was getting to be too much. I actually tried on this particular dress a month or two ago and really liked it, but I wanted to bring my mom with me to see it. I convinced her to ditch work last week and I made an appointment to try it on again. I really loved it, but it was still hard to make the commitment and say that it was "the one."  I can't really tell you anything about it because you know who might read it, so you'll just have to wait 'til February to see it in all it's glory. I had tons of fun trying on dresses although some bridal salon experiences were better than others. I am so thankful to my wonderful friend Karen who endured the countless trips to places near, far, classy, and sketchy to finally find "the dress." It was such a grand adventure. Here are some pictures of us at The Dresser where I bought my dress.

My mother was very particular about the details

Here we are. (That girl wasn't the greatest at taking pictures)
