Holy crap! Huge, huge checks for me! My dress is here!!!

Saturday morning I had an appointment at David's with my sister (MOH) and best friend (BM) so they could try on some dresses. When I got there they said those four sweet words to me:

'YOUR GOWN IS IN!'

This was absolutely perfect timing, as my mom and sister were in from FL for only a few days; it wasn't due in until near Thanksgiving and I was just going to try on the sample for my mom and sister (which was in white...I ordered ivory) as they didn't know which gown I selected.

My best friend was prepared with her wedding jewelry, so we got me all dressed up in a dressing room and came out...my mom started to tear up, it was so cute! It was AWESOME to be able to try on my real gown (not a sample!) for them!!!

Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!

Then it was time for the girls to try on gowns...as they're very different body types, I just wanted them in the same color, same fabric, and similar length. Well...after about 8 dresses that would look good on one of them, but not both, they ended up trying on this sweet little number:



and it looked GREAT on both of them! (Keep in mind, my sister is about 5'6' and a size 18-20; my best friend is about 5'1' and a size 4-6) They both came out of the dressing rooms smiling and happy...the dresses are a cotton-y material so it's not clingy at all...perfect for a daytime spring wedding. Done! I almost want to get one for myself, it was so cute!

Oh, and the color in the picture is what we're ordering.

Ch-ch-ch-CHECK!!!!

Thanks, Laura...I didn't think my gown would be in, so I didn't bring my camera! My sister and mom took pics, but they flew home yesterday so they haven't uploaded them yet. Once I have them, you know I'm gonna show them off!
