Weekend Fun!

Daniel and I had a great time at our friends, Cheryl and Ryan's wedding. She made such a beautiful bride! Her dress was gorgeous! It was beautiful weather and it was great to see some people I hadn't seen in forever. I also got to meet some people that Daniel went to high school with, which is always interesting! Here are some pictures from the wedding:

Me and the beautiful bride!


First dance



Weddings are always SO much fun. I got to do the Cupid Shuffle which I always enjoy. This time Daniel came out to the dance floor with me to do it, it was a ton of fun. I think I had a little too much wine. Oops!

Her bridesmaid dresses were really pretty. I was actually glad she chose the dresses she chose because I had my eye on one of them for a while for the Marine Corps Ball that Daniel and I are going to in November. This was the dress that I was dead set on getting:



It's gorgeous in the front, however the back I'm not a huge fan of. The shoulder strap sort of turns into a long piece of fabric that just hangs and looks a little awkward from behind. I was wondering why every dress in this line on the David's Bridal website had an image of the back, except this one. Figures! But another dress that I did get to see in person was this one, which I think I am leaning more towards now. (I am keeping the color, cause I love that color!) I think it'll look good with Daniel's dress blues (if he ends up wearing them) and it's a good fall color!



It's so pretty! I feel it might be a little more flattering too cause of my curves. Who knows, once I go and try them all on, I might completely change my mind all together and go with something totally different! Which leads me to my next topic: My Halloween costume! I completely changed my mind!

Originally I wanted to be Dorothy.... but I think I want to go with something I'll be a little more comfortable in. If you really know me, you know that I HATE to show my legs, and I found an even cuter costume that I don't have to sacrifice my self consciousness for! Ladies........... behold:


An Olympic Goddess.... but I am going to turn it more into Meg from Disney's Hercules!!!! I really really hope Daniel will go for a couple costume with me this year because the Hercules costume is just to die for!



MINUS the wig of course.... gross.... But I'm going to propose the idea to him tonight, we'll see how he takes it. I might even manipulate my words a little and tell him its the main characters from 300, his favorite movie, but we'll see how this goes. He's usually not into any kind of cheesy couple costume to begin with so I may just be doing this solo, but that's ok, cause I have some REALLY cute ideas for this costume. I'm so excited!!

That's all for now! I hope every one's week started out well!
