the week of weddings

first let me say that i love weddings. i ALWAYS cry. i love the bride's dress. i love the flowers. i love the ceremony. but i HATE to dress up. if you know me at all you know i love t-shirts, jeans and sandals. and that's it. i even wear that to church. so for me to have to get dressed up for a wedding is a big deal. but this week i get to go to TWO weddings! my friend jill is getting married today. it is a daytime wedding so i can get away with pants. i actually bought 2 dresses but i took them both back. then i found a really cute top and remembered that i had some "dress-up" pants at home. so i went with it. but the wedding i'm going to next weekend is a night time, formal wedding. keep your fingers crossed that i can find a dress that i actually like!!

the wedding today is going to be at our old church. i still go to Bible study there but my hubby hasn't been back since we left. it may be ugly. he still harbors some anger at the people who chased us off. i'll let you know how it goes.

the wedding next saturday is going to ROCK!!! caroline and her sister elisa were best friends with my sister and i during middle school. then they moved to chapel hill. we stayed close and spent summers together. we were the Hubba Hubba hiney girls. i just love them. caroline is getting married in chapel hill which is only about a 2 hour drive from charlotte. my sis is flying in thursday. monkey is graduating from pre-school that night. and friday sis and i are driving to the wedding. i am SOOO excited!! no kids. no hubby. and a hotel room! i can sleep late!!!

I'd love to hear how today goes-I hope your hubby can lose the resentment--for his own sanity--and have a little fun with you....

fingers are crossed for the awesome chapel hill wedding next week. that sounds so cool.

i like jeans too--and I haven't worn an actual dress since Sophie was born. i feel for you.
