My mom and grandma were down visiting for a little over a week. We had appointments at 4 bridal salons in the Chattanooga area while they were here (split over 2 Saturdays). Last weekend there were a few dresses that we liked but nothing we loved. I was optimistic going into the appointments this last Saturday that I would find THE dress. I think Saturday was just a big miss. I knew 10 minutes into the second store's appointment they didn't have anything I was interested in and the saleswoman just keep shoving dresses down my throat.. I felt like that scene in Sex & the City where Carrie has a major meltdown and just wanted the wedding dress off!! I think I just need to take a break from looking and look over all the picture I have and see which dress stands out. I still really like the one that I randomly tried on a few weeks ago and it fit me so well.
I had a nice visit with my mom and grandma. It seems like time always flies when they are here. We got a lot done around the house - who doesn't love organization?! I always want to have time to scrapbook with my mom but we never get to it! We did watch The Hunger Games Saturday evening. I thought they did a nice job following the book overall. I don't care for the character they picked for Peeta, he seemed baby-ish to me.
Speaking of movies, I'm ready for them to make 50 Shades of Grey. I know the books are "bad" but I thought they were sooo good, loved the underlying story lines. Once I started reading the first book I couldn't put them down!
Anyhow, long story short, we had a nice week together. I'm looking forward to going home Labor Day Weekend -- I haven't been home since Easter!! I already have quite a few things on the agenda for that weekend.
I'm also finally finished scrapbooking Lauren's wedding and activities and now it's on to the cruise I took Labor Day weekend of ..2009! I'm really trying to get caught up, but it's a long slow process! I laid out probably 30 pages last night so that's it quicker to make the pages when I do have time during the week; I'll post some pictures of my progress!
Keep strong on the dress hunt! I know it can be frustrating but don't settle. You'll find one you just HAVE to have. :) Glad you had a good time with your fam!
