five hundred twenty

okay so i jumped the gun a little bit here....i saw no reason not to, so, i bought my dress. well technically i bought it a month ago. but tonight i have it in my hands. it is beautiful, exceeding all my expectations.

when i first went into the dress shop about two months ago it had been the fourth place i tried. after about 15 dresses i found three that i absolutely loved, so i put them on my card with the intention to keep looking and make a selection this summer. well shel came in town about two weeks after first trying the dresses on so i took her to show her my favorites. when i slipped into 'my' dress to show her she had to do a little imagining since this dress was a whopping size 12. so clamps aside, she seemed to love it as much as i did. well that did it, two days later i came in for a fitting and ordered my dress. they told me on average it takes 5 months to get in, i was feeling good, i definitely had time.

5 months, ha! not even a month later i got a call saying 'your dress has arrived and you can pick it up anytime.' well i literally walked out the door to get there that instant. so now i have my dress and i have to try and 'forget' about it for five hundred and twenty days. then i finally get to wear it. i just can't wait.

since i don't want to spoil the surprise...and just in case jordan takes a peek at this blog, i'm not going to post a whole picture. but i will post a swatch, a little teaser for you all.
