The Dress

I found

my dress today. 

I feel so pretty in it

I want to wear it all the time. 

I do not want to wait five months 

for it to come in. I want it now. 

My mom, sister, and 8 month old niece Gabbi 

went with me to find it. Gabbi was a big help,

and I am glad she was there.

Vintage, lace-overlay, pearls, and beads.

Strapless, ivory, flower, Maggie Sottero,

Perfect Perfect Dress.

I could not be happier.

(Except maybe if Suni and Kayla could have been there, too).

Holly Golightly

So Darren and I received our first wedding gift on Sunday! Granted, we bought it ourselves, but I still think it counts. We our now the proud owners of a 8 week old  female shih-tzu puppy! And when I say we, I mean me. Yes, in 8 months she will live with Darren, too, but for the time-being I am the one feeding her, grooming her, potty-training her, and waking up at 3:30 in the morning with her when she starts whining. I think that makes her a little more mine than his. My mom and I got our shih-tzu, Cosby, when I was in 8th grade, and I am going to miss him so much when I get married that I had to get one for myself (I tried explaining this to Cosby, but I don't think he gets it...he's pretty much pissed).

ANYWAYS....

This is mine and Darren's first of many things to buy together for the both of us, and that makes me very happy =) Hopefully she won't mind the small apartment that she'll be living in in 8 months....
