Timing

It's everything. I won't go into detail, just to say it's about a boy (a man really) who could be perfect, but...let's just say I should have met him sooner. I really need to follow Sarah *d*'s advice about not censoring myself, but I don't want to hurt anyone.
Kristina's wedding was Saturday night and it was a BLAST! I'm pretty sure I looked like a beached whale in my dress, but what can I do, now? Here are a few pics from it:

Here's Kristina and me, she looks so pretty and so happy, it was a beautiful day! I don't know that I've seen anyone so excited about getting married, it was terribly cute. And, it wasn't getting married, it was getting married to her, now, husband. Her friend said it best in her toast, she loves being with him and she can't wait to get home to him. I'm tearing up now just thinking about it.


Here are all the bridesmaids and the flower girl with Kristina. No, that's not the groom, he's the maid of honor. I was the honorary maid of honor that held her bouquet during the wedding and I was suppose to straighten her dress, but my top laced up in the back and I was basically cinched in there and couldn't bend over! That girl on the right, Halie, was my saving grace that helped me go to the bathroom when I needed!
And, all the girl bridesmaids goofing off.


Here's the entire wedding party, there wasn't really room for us all! There are pedestals behind us that make up the alter, but we couldn't all fit there. And, yes, the best man is a girl. :) She actually gave the most amazing toast, I think everyone needed a tissue after it.
The rehearsal and rehearsal dinner were Friday night, the dinner was an Italian place at 820 and 30, it was fantastic. Kristina's family is an absolute blast/riot, so it was too much fun, not a dull moment. I stayed the night with Kristina so I didn't have to drive back and forth since we were getting ready there Saturday, it's a good thing I did, she would have been all by herself! And, I can't take a shower in their spare bathroom, anymore, I fell...AGAIN! I have a nice bruise on both my hip and knee, now. All the girls got ready at Kristina's house, they had a girl do some of their hair and makeup, but I did my own. I was jealous of everyone's hair and wish I had her do mine! The wedding was at 5:30 and we danced at the reception until 11, we were also going into the reception by 6, it was a quick ceremony. We had to get the party started! The DJ did introductions for all the wedding party and we each had our own song, Kristina picked Barbie Doll for me, she knows me well :) I introduced her to Jack and all of Texas country. He also informed all of the guests that I'm a mortgage broker and I'm accepting donations, dammit if I didn't get any! Everyone went and had lunch at Kristina's parents yesterday, she made potato salad just for me, it was sooo good, I must have eaten a whole pound of it!
Dawn called me on my way out with a ticket to see Hayes in Grand Prairie...yay!! It had been too long since I'd seen him. I had some time to kill so I decided to run to the mall, I need a new bra. But, I didn't make it to VS, I got distracted by the half yearly sale at Nordstrom. They had both my favorite brands of jeans on sale, almost half off!! I'm such a sucker for great jeans, it's a habit, I tell ya! So, now I have two new pair of fabulous jeans and I need a place to wear them. Then, it was on to Hayes, the show was alright, nothing special for him. He needs to take a few days off, though. And, the asses that decided to chant "Hayes F'n Carll" need to grow up. We had sushi at Piranha's afterwards, mmmmmm I LOVE Piranha sushi!
Now, I've had my first night in a few weeks of doing nothing, it's been great! I believe when I started this blog, I warned that I have nothing important or exciting to talk about, so now if you've made it this far, I want to remind you that you were warned. :) Hope everyone had a great weekend.
