Also, last Wednesday or Thursday I got a voice mail from my dress shop. They called to tell me that my dress was in....only my dress wasn't supposed to be shipped for another few weeks. I called the shop to double check, thinking that they must have been talking about my fabric for my bolero, as that was scheduled to ship last Tuesday. When I explained my concerns to the lady at the store, she told me that they didn't have any record of fabric for me, and she offered to look into the whole situation. Well, to my surprise, not only was the fabric in, but the dress had come in early. I ran to pick it up that afternoon and had my first fitting today (2 lbs lighter than last week I might add). I was on cloud 9 all day waiting for my appointment.
In between all of this craziness....Branden and I decided to take a trip to California for Independence Day. We have a friend out there who graciously let us stay on his boat, which reminded me of when I was a kid. We drove all night on Friday and went to the Sailing Pro Shop and Beach first thing on Saturday. As Branden and I celebrate our anniversary on July 5-6, we decided to get each other sailing bags. Saturday was wonderful, but I ended up being so tired that I slept all day Sunday after church.
Monday by evening we found ourselves in Mesquite, NV, just in time to watch the fireworks show and listen to the Nevada Pops Orchestra. Let me tell you... that was a special day, and we got some good use out of the July 4th quilt that I made Branden for our anniversary a few years ago.
On our actual anniversary (or one of them..... we honestly aren't sure if it's the 5th or 6th), we finally registered for wedding gifts, and let me just say that it can be a challenge to decide on things together.
Well... I'm off to bed. Hopefully I'll get some more posts for you tomorrow!
