Beginnings and endings


So, the beginning of a marriage begins with a date then a dress, right? So off we go to the first stop, David's Bridal and I see the "one" on a poster being modeled on the wall but I can't see, I am totally overwhelmed by the monster dresses; I am talking like REAL wedding dresses....I am thinking: ok, let's go, this scares the holy hell outta me. But....I got brave and just picked one, gotta start somewhere, right? It hung like a heavy bell, no movement, no flow...no fun! The 2nd one was a maybe; it had potential but it was only good enough to put on hold. Then... psst, psst it whispered to Debi as we were leaving, and it was the "one" fitting quite snug on a mannequin. The saleslady didn't think it was gonna be a fit because I had been trying on bigger sizes....but when I walked out with that dress on, Debi and the saleslady were beside themselves....it was perfect. What a way to begin and end the weekend, huh? Knowing I have the perfect dress!

oops, sorry, forgot.....the wonderful day falls on September 18th and can't see the dress until then......wouldn't want my wonderful husband- to-be to see!!
