SHOES!!!

So I have already told yall that my first dress fitting is this Friday. When I called and made the appointment they told me that I needed to have everything with me when I came to the appointment, ie. shoes, bra, petticoat and things of the sort. Well I already have my boots but I don't want to wear boots to the church ceremony. So my mom and I went shopping this evening for wedding shoes! I also got a bra that will work perfectly with my dress.

The shopping was not one of the most enjoyable experiences although. My mom and I went to JCPenny's to start with and every time we stepped through the doors the buzzer went off. We went to Dillard's to find shoes and I found mine and the computers weren't working. So we had to leave Dillard's without shoes. My mom is going to pick them up tomorrow though so all is well!

Fun Stuff!

So a lot has been happening lately! Last night Christopher and I went to my parents house for dinner. We discussed a lot of things and got some more decisions made. We decided on the paper color for the wedding invitations. It is a really pretty golden yellow that is going to be really pretty! We also ordered the eyelets that we are using to secure the invitation together. They are super cute, they are horseshoe eyelets! We also ordered the candy for the candy bar. I found some pretty cool candy in yellow and brown that will look really pretty in some fun containers. So we got some stuff done, and enjoyed dinner in the same evening!

So I got a call last week from the store that I ordered my dress from and they said that my dress came in! I am so excited. They suggested not coming in to get fitted until 6-8 weeks before the wedding, but I want to do bridal pictures and some major alterations to the dress so I wanted to go in a little earlier. So my mom and I and hopefully Christopher's mom are going for the first fitting this Friday. I haven't seen the dress in so long, I can't wait to see it again and know that it is mine.

So many things all coming together! I am getting pretty excited!

Yeah we are HOTT!!!!

This past Sunday my sister took some pictures of us. We really wanted some "country" pictures of us in our boots. You will see why later so stay tuned! Didn't they turn out fantastic!

so much to do

So I have been talking to my mom and sister lately and we have decided that there is so much to do! We are meeting tomorrow to work on several things. One thing is the invitation. I found an invitation that I liked in Brides and we are going to try to customize it to fit me wedding and needs.

We have also been discussing a candy bar. My mom really wants for us to do a candy bar with a variety of different candy.

My mom also found these place card holders that will be adorable for reserving the tables for the wedding party and the families. Super cute!!!!

I'm Back

Sorry that I have been so absent in my blogging but I have been super busy. Christmas was phenomenal! It was no nice to spend quality time with my family and my future husband's family as well. This was the first year I have spent Christmas with both my own family and Christopher's as well and I really had an amazing time. For New Years this year Christoper, the dogs and I did nothing. We just watched a movie, gave each other and the dogs a kiss at midnight and were asleep by 12:30. I would say that it was a very uneventful but really good!

So the holidays are over and on the 2nd I started my new job at Market Street. I am working in the pharmacy as a pharmacy tech. I am using this experience to get an idea if pharmacy is the right career path. So far it is not looking promising. My first day was a 12 hour day and it was rough. I have always worked at a bank and banks aren't even open 12 hours a day (not to mention that I took a $5/hour pay cut). So tomorrow is my week mark at the new job and I am working another 12 hour day. So all this to say that I have already started to look for another job. I want to find something that better utilizes my abilities and is more intellectually challenging and exciting.

Back to wedding details.... my sister and my dad bought boots yesterday for my wedding. I am super excited! I have so much to do and it is really starting to give me anxiety but I am excited!
