Yes it''s very sparkly! I''m just waking up w/ this piece of art on my finger for the first time

...Honestly I feel like I''m still dreaming...could be the bottle of wine and 8 beers we drank last night! Luckily MY FUTURE HUSBAND is gone for a short morning/afternoon hunt so I don''t have to hide being a freak and coming right to pricescope! I will certainly put up my story and get some hand shots going ASAP but you guys are my peeps so I wanted to share w/ ya''ll first...

morning!

how was everyone''s weekend?

Mine was great! Presentation over (a success!) and found out yesterday we don''t have to do the 2nd one because it will ''take away from too much class time together.'' Sounds good to me!

 

[Lauren8211]

Morning B!

Glad your presentation went well and that you don''t have to do another! Yay!!

My weekend was good. Lots o booze, lots o fun.

Went wedding dress shopping with my friend S and.. and we bought her gown! Yay! I should post pics, but I''d have to blur her face!

Then... soon... the dreaded bridesmaid gown shopping!

 

[Hudson_Hawk]

Good job B, I''m glad we didn''t mess up your mojo for the presentation.

I can''t wait for Wednesday around noon...then I''ll have 4.5 days OFF! YAY!!!

good morning all! i had a terrible morning - got yelled at by my landlord about my dog having an accident on her carpet. made me late for work = late for a meeting = bad start to the day. boo.

hope everyone is doing well~ i hope my day gets better. ug.

looking forward to thanksgiving - lots of family time and a meeting with mark at ERD to look at cushions! YUM. to the diamonds, and the turkey. mostly the diamonds though.

 

[jcarlylew]

sunnyd- this store called romy in kirkland. its next to where i get my hair done. They have the cutest clothes at forever 21 price. excpet it last a bit longer than forever 21 clothes

i believe the owner also owns a clothing factory, so the over head is cheap! good for us!

i''m glad you guys like the photog! E really likes her as well, so i will probably be booking her this week.
does anyone think 6 months out is too late to send save the dates? i am debating on if i should bother making them of not. almost ALL of our family already live in the area... but then again i was not going to send out invites until Feb.

 

[Hudson_Hawk]

$21 BM dresses? You can''t beat that!

We''re taking my parents to Old Sturbridge Village for Turkey Day. I''ll make a turkey for DH this weekend. I hate turkey-yuck

 

[Lauren8211]

sorry about your crappy morning, sweet pea! hope it gets better! cushions at ERD is definitely something to be thankful for!

jcar.. i have no idea about STDs. my engagement-to-wedding timeslot was far too small for those.

I''ve heard of that place! Is there one in Redmond, too?

I don''t think 6 months is too late at all. I think most people send them out at 3 months. We only sent them to OOTers, so you could do that if you want. Saves a buttload of

too.

Morning sexy sweathearts!

So our weekend turned out a little bittersweet as J''s uncle finally passed yesterday morning. He''s not suffering anymore so for that we are thankful but it''s still sad.
