Round One

Last night, I began the "journey" of finding my wedding dress! For those of you who didn't know, I have a disdain for trying on clothes and a slightly lesser disdain for dresses. So, even though this experience has been magical for some and will be exciting for others, I could have passed on it. I tried on a total of 9 dresses over a span of two hours. While my mom and Mel looked on, I stepped on that little pedestal thing, twirled around, walked around the store and made faces. Some dresses were nice don't get me wrong, but the price tag that usually hung uncomfortably under my arm, made the statement of... "it's just one day. You can be "uncomfortable for just one day"... silly to me.

Although, I've always dreamed of being married, tossed around the idea of being a stay at home mom, I've never dreamed about my actual wedding... well, I have but those folks who know that plan won't let me have it ;-). Because I'm not the Hollywood described bride, you know the type... have an ENTIRE notebook of what her wedding will be like, minus the husband. They knew exactly what type of dress, when they wanted the wedding, the dj, etc. Yeah, I had none of that... well, I know I don't want to look like Cinderella! Other than that, I have no clue...

But, I can say despite my not so excited out look on trying on clothes or dresses... the one thing I can get excited about is I'm marrying Justin D. Davis... oh, and I'll just have one last name ;-). Filling out those forms and running out of boxes is not the business.

I'll keep everyone posted on the second round of dress shopping.
