This is the result of...

...spending a whole day wedding dress shopping!!
Brian's sister, Melanie, is getting married in May. She invited Eva and I to go wedding dress shopping in Idaho Falls on Saturday with her, her mom, and Patty (her future mom-in-law). It was a fun day. We got to spend the whole day with Grandma Grimm and Aunt Mel, got to see lots of pretty dresses, and ate some yummy food at Chili's. Eva was very good for having to go in and out of the car so much and not being allowed to touch much when we were in the stores!! They didn't buy a dress that day, but definitely narrowed it down. Thanks for inviting us along!
This reminds me of the day when I bought my wedding dress! Wanna hear the story?Well, Brian proposed to me on Sunday, October 9, 2005. Three days later, while I was working for the City of Pocatello IT Department, my boss came back from a meeting and told me that he had seen a sign outside the Paris that their wedding dresses were half off. He told me I should go on my lunch break and look for a dress. So, my friend Taunalee met me for my lunch break and went with me. We looked around the store, picked out some dresses to try on, and then headed to the fitting rooms. I liked Dress #1. Dress #2 was okay. I loved Dress #3 and bought it right then!!! That wasn't so hard. The hardest part was finding the veil. That took me about a month and a half (and we only had a two month engagement)!!

I never did see any of your wedding pics so I'm glad you posted a couple. That was a cute pic of Eva trying on the veil. Funny story too.
