Dress Hunt

My wedding rehearsal and dinner is quickly approaching, and I need something to wear. I was discussing this with a girlfriend of mine, who thought it was strange that I was so wrapped up in finding the perfect something to wear. I explained to her the way I see it, (fingers crossed) I'll only have one wedding rehearsal in my lifetime. I want this day to be something that I remember forever.....and I want it to be a day where I feel special. Thus, the dress hunt. So, without further ado, here she is: (photo courtesy of Wet Seal)


This little number was only $26.99 at wetseal.com (where they also have FREE ground shipping!!!!) and should be here in 5-7 business days! YES! YES! YES! those are sequence on it!!! Wooohoooo!!! Hopefully it's as cute in person as it was on their site!!!! (I sure am getting gutsy with this whole on-line clothes buying deal!!!)

This is me.....

This is me wedding planning......

Any questions?

Black Snake Moan

Brian and I watched a movie last night called Black Snake Moan.......it was interesting to say the least, but I enjoyed most of it. During the movie there is a scene between a preacher and the main character (Christina Ricci) who is a troubled young woman. This exchange struck me, and I haven't been able to forget it. It's interesting becuase tonight when I logged on to post this, one of my closest friends had also posted a movie line that she'd really liked. No wonder we're friends! Anyway, here it goes:

"I'm gonna tell you somethin', and it's just gonna be between you and me. I think folks carry on about heaven too much. Like it's some all-you-can-eat buffet up in the clouds. And folks just gonna do as they're told so they can eat what they want behind some pearly gates. I can go to Shoney's for that.
There's sin in my heart. There's evil in this world. But when I got no one...I talk to God. I ask for strength. I ask for forgiveness. Not for peace at the end of my days when there's no more life live and no more good to do, but today. Right now. Where is your heaven? What gives you peace?"

'Nam

Here are some more photos my dad sent over. These are from when he visited Nha Trang. He said that pictures are of the ocean, rice fields, sugar cane fields and some fish traps. Facinating!

Who's hungry?

My dad sent me this picture of just one of the delectable dishes they serve over in Vietnam. Yes, those are chicken feet. And yes, they really do eat this stuff.

We're goin' to the chapel.......

Our wedding is less than one month away.....I can't believe it!

Dog Paddle, Anyone?

Today was day number 2 of Tayler's swimming lessons, YMCA style! Tayler takes to the water like a fish, but unfortunately hasn't mastered the art of listening to everything her teacher tells her....which can be a bit frustrating. During her lessons, you'll frequently hear Tayler saying "Ok, let go, I can do it myself!" (in approximately 4 feet of water.....where she can't even close to touch the bottom!) But her teacher is very patient, and Tayler is having a blast!
