I Think.

I think I found THE dress. No joke this time.

I was walking downtown and decided to go into the SLO bridal shop. The ladies were super nice and left me to wander around and look at dresses. They don't take appointments so they said I could try on whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted.

I saw it immediately. I pulled it out and looked through all the other dresses, but just kept going back to it. The nice sales lady showed me a pretty satin dress with a drop waistline and a massive bubble hem, which I tried on- but it was too much, I felt like the masses of fabric were going to eat me- and then she said, "How about we try on that nice lace one?"

So I did, and my heart started fluttering. It was THE feeling!!

It's beautiful and lacy and gorgeous and sparkly and romantic and perfect. It gives me a beautiful hourglass shape, and it could have perfect little lace buttons up the back. She added a veil and I just KNEW! Another added bonus? It's a GREAT price!

I pranced around for a while and didn't want to take it off. You know what was different about this one? I didn't want to take it off because it was beautiful and wonderful and gorgeous, not because I was trying to decide if it was "THE" dress or not. I called my mom as I left the shop and as soon as she picked up the phone, I said "I think I FOUND IT!!!" She's coming up here asap, as soon as Bren is somewhat mobile (she had her ACL surgery yesterday).

I LOVE it. So the feeling really is true! I was starting to doubt it, because I just wasn't finding anything. I kept looking at the pictures that we had taken at the other shops and I just wasn't feeling it. They were pretty, but there was always something I didn't like... This one is a combination of all the wonderful parts of the other dresses!

Can July 11 be here already!!?
