Weekend of Wonderfulness!

Remember the weekend I told you about? Well it came and went and it was a great time! I got up bright and early on Saturday so I could see Matt the earliest. It's a good thing I did because about 90 miles into my trip it dawned on me.... I forgot my dress!!!!!!!!!! For the first time in my life I didn't over pack, so I didn't have additional options. Fortunately, Dillards was having an amazing sale so I was able to find another one with out breaking the bank.

I went to the Victoria's Secret and got some fantastic OSU apparel from their PINK collection. For some reason the OKC store seems to have more selection. I got the cutest t-shirt w/the gift card that my best friend got me for my birthday. Just because he's wonderful, Matt bought me what I am sure is going to be my favorite sweater of 2010. Pictures to come!

We searched the mall for some clothes for our upcoming engagement pictures this weekend, which was a success as well. Then we registered at Dillards. We learned a lesson that if you're starving and short on time- registering may not be the best idea. We clicked stuff like crazy with little discretion. Beep! Beep! Sure! Why not? Beep! Matt asked what our total damage probably was...I told him that on wedding registries there's a "Greedy-o-meter" that people can see when they look at it. I need to tell him that was a joke. However- I did look at the registry this morning, and for the most part it was all reasonable stuff. Plenty of selection.....

We went to the cheesecake factory with his parents. That place is really great and their selection is NUTS. In light of our own upcoming nuptials, I decided to have a turkey burger- clearly that would be a better choice right? WRONG! I just looked up the calories. Approximately 1336 calories!! That's nuts! Praise the Lord I had a side salad and not fries! Lesson learned....

The wedding was really nice and I was able to collect several ideas. I got to meet Matt's friends from Midland- nice people!

I even got to meet and visit with Lt. Governor Jari Askins! I told her I am going to invite her to OUR wedding. Hopefully she'll be the Governor by then! There's my new dress too, it doesn't look anything like the original- but it worked!

Matt and I danced a few times. I loved it! Especially when we danced to Michael Buble's-Save the Last Dance for Me- which I have decided will be played at our wedding as well.

It was an all around really good time! It made me so excited for our wedding!!

On Sunday Matt and I just spent the morning together walking around brick town and working out some details for the reception since I have a meeting this week. We ate at Zio's for lunch and just enjoyed eachother's company. What a wonderful weekend! Next weekend should be great too!
