Winner Winner ... Chicken Dinner!

I've recently put the wedding planning on hold .. with Colb coming home shortly I figured I could take a break and he could help with what's left. (which is a lot more than he's expecting but he'll do great) To be honest it has been kind of nice not having to stress about the big day being just around the corner. I'm really excited to be able to just hang out and enjoy being engaged before the stress of it all hits too hard.
I've been researching a lot of photographers trying to find exactly what I want. There are so many great ideas out there but most seem to be pretty expensive as well. I have a lot of options in that department though so more than stressed I'm excited.
I randomly pull up wedding dress sites just to take a peak and I have found a few that I liked and could picture myself wearing but nothing that I loved and had to have. Every time I try on a dress I try and picture Colby's face when he sees me in it... I can always see his smile but I never got the 'This is the one' feeling.
Yesterday I was watching Ellen and a commercial came on advertising a sale for Bridal Satin - a place in Roy we'd been to a few times. I found a dress I loved there but when we went back the second time to try it on, I only liked it. I told them I'd probably be back. I called yesterday to see if that dress was on Sale - they said yes then .. they mentioned they had just sold it but they had also just received a new shipment. I called my Mom and Holly - (colb's Mom) and we headed up there. I tried on two dresses - neither of which were on sale- and I fell in love with the second one. It was so cute and unlike anything I had ever seen before!
My Mom's opinion has meant more to me than anyone's so I was super excited when she also loved it. We paid for it in full and headed for home. She was so excited that she called my sister in CA on the way home to tell her all about it! I love when she shares my excitement! I must have one incredible Mom - She's giving me another wedding of my dreams (the last one Mom, I promise) and she's loving every single second of it.
So I guess technically I haven't put the plans on too much of a hold if we are out making crazy 'ALL SALES FINAL' purchases. I LoOoOvVvEeEe the dress and I'm SoOo excited to wear it and see Colby's face when he sees me in it.
