Dresses, Furniture, and Jewerly!

Jeff is off this weekend and poor thing, I am seem to run him ragged every time he is off. The sweet guy that he is, he very seldom ever says anything about not wanting to go somewhere or do something. He is a real trouper...

This Saturday started off with us picking up Mimi and going to David's Bridal to bridesmaids dresses. We met my cousin, Karen, Paige and Aunt Anne there. Karen was picking out and getting her dress and shoes for the wedding. She seemed to like the dress I had picked and we were able to get it ordered and shoes ready to be dyed so they will all be ready to pickup later in August. I really enjoyed having them there with us, always fun to have the family experience all the fun that comes along with planning a wedding. Mimi also volunteered to buy my veil for me. That was a huge surprise and a wonderful gift from her. Aunt Anne was a big help in getting my veiled picked out and making sure it was the right color. THANKS!

From there, Jeff and I went to Gallery Furniture. We had intended on buying a bookshelf and some kind of entertainment center. Well, that isn't exactly what we came out with. Instead, we walked out of there having purchased a new couch, love seat and over sized chair and ottoman. It is a chocolate, suede color fabric. We both really liked it and I know it will be great in the new living room. The furniture is being delivered on Friday, so I can't wait to see it in our new house.

Finally, our last stop of the day was at Zales. Jeff had wanted me to get something for my birthday there. Of course, me and jewelry...what a difficult thing. I found a cross that I just loved. It is a perfect combination of yellow and white gold, just like the bracelet he gave me on our first date. It also has some very beautiful diamonds in it, can you tell I LOVE IT!!!

We rounded off the night by going to dinner with Pam and Brandon...it was great to meet them and just unwind. I know Jeff was tired but he did great and we survived another day of running around and taking the steps towards starting our life together.
