Celebrating 5 years together....apart.

Sever's empty seat at the Beaver game...

Today Sever and I are celebrating 5 years of being together, while being apart (insert sad face here). We are excited for Sever's work in Haines to wrap up within the next month (cross your fingers) so we can be in the same state again. If there is anything we have learned over the past five years it has been that long distance relationships are really hard, but so worth it.

Here's to many more years together!

09/09/09

What a great day! Today is my 25th birthday and I could not be more excited that it fell on 09/09/09! I couldn't go without posting this little message.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes,
Holly

Wedding Dress Shopping...

It was my goal to go dress shopping at least once before going back to school, because lord knows that I will be super busy come tomorrow (the first day of school)! Well, not only did I go dress shopping once, I went twice and one walk through David's Bridal. Actually, the walk through of David's Bridal was my first introduction to wedding dresses. As soon and we walked in I was completely overwhelmed. I found nothing that I would want to try on and sadly nothing close to a bridesmaid dress color. About a week later my mom and sister and I went to Charlotte's, a cute little boutique. I found a couple of cute dresses, but mainly discovered all the things that I liked and didn't like in a dress. This past Friday, we went to Tower Bridal in Johns Landing. My sister, mom, and nanny went this time. We picked out about 6 or so dresses to try on...low and behold the last dress I tried on was the one. Sad for you that I can't disclose any of the juicy details, but trust me, it is beautiful.

I still continue my quest for the perfect bridesmaid dress color....I am not sure that the color I have pictured in my head even exists, but I will not give up!
