Ta Dah!

I am just back from a very productive weekend in LA with my Mom. First of all, she was right -- there is something to be said about shopping for your wedding dress with your mother. There is nothing quite like it, and I am glad I had the chance to share this with my Mom.

With that said -- WE BOUGHT MY DRESS!!!! I am not telling you all which one, or what it looks like. Just suffice it to say, that it has been ordered and I glow in it. Well, that might have something to do with Ken, but glowing is glowing and I will take it at any rate.

Now that the dress has been picked, I can move forward with everything else -- invites, flowers, etc... I am sure it will all come together. I feel a huge sense of relief now, so that is good.

While visiting with Mom, we looked at invitations, and I think I am narrowing that down as well. I just need to get the final nod from Ken -- he actually has opinions about this stuff -- who'da think it? Mom has great taste and good insight, so it was helpful. Our tastes are VERY different, but she is starting to see things through my eyes, and I am seeing them through hers.

I a sensing accomplishment and feeling very good about all of it.

On a sad note, Ken is in India, so he missed going to visit Mom with me and my cousin's engagement party. She is getting married in July and I am so happy for her. Ken is doing a great job over there, and we are both very much looking forward to his return home on Saturday.

Now, if we do not start getting some input on favors, you are all going to end up with something really silly -- just out of spite Come on, help a couple out!
