I live in Tacoma, WA now... jobless, homeless, and broke. I'm sleeping on a friend of Andy's futon and living out of a suitcase, but it is so great to see him everyday.
I gave in and showed him a picture of my dress. But not me in it. And he hasn't seen it in person.
Click to see it!We also exchanged the first option of bridesmaid dresses for these from J.Crew instead.
It's the dress I originally wanted but it was too expensive and then sold out... and then it reappeared in the Sale section with just enough dresses for our sisters. Yay!
We have picked a photographer:
Craig Tiscareno Super fabulous. We took engagement pics at Balboa Park last week and are DYING to see how the images turn out. From what we saw looking at his camera, they're going to be amazing.
There's still sooo much to do but first things first... 1) Job. 2) Apartment.
My niece Auden. She's 2. She didn't love the attention, but the attention loved her. This is the closest thing to a smile I saw on her face all day. But dang her dress is adorable. Picture from my cousin Kathryn. My awesome 2nd shooter. She emailed me some teasers a few days ago.
My sister, sisters-in-law, and I at my bridal shower a few weeks ago.
I don't know much about these two. I met Grandma Ruby and Grandpa Carl over Christmas but Carl was in the hospital the whole time, and not very coherent. Ruby was distressed and sad. Grandpa passed away a few weeks after I left. I love this picture that Andy's dad emailed us. The happiness that is evident on their faces is infectious. I love knowing that Grandpa Carl has every reason to be smiling that widely now. :)
We've got our reccommends in hand. Hooray!
Okay... combine these images and you'll get our cake. I think. We're still on the hunt for the right bakery. Why is it so weird to these people that I want Cream Cheese frosting. We don't like buttercream nor do we care for fondant. It's all about the YUM with our cake.
Plunk it down on this gorgeous cake stand (gently). And we're in business. DONE.
