three hundred thirty eight

Patience! i need it and it seems some of my dearest friends need a small dose as well...
ha i'm kidding, i am waiting and waiting for my engagement photos from sara. ahhhh! soo very impatient.

slightly off topic but still under the huge umbrella of 'weddingness' i got my bridesmaid dress today for miss Elena's wedding. it is gorgeous and fits pretty darn perfectly, except for it being an inch too tall. easy enough to fix. here is a photo i took with my phone


the shoes are fabulous as well. they match the top of the dress so perfectly kudos to Em for such a fantastic find and for $20 bucks you can't beat that.

the dress is champagne color with the lace overlay on the top. maria, who is the maid of honor is wearing a slightly different dress that is gorgeous. here is my mock up that i did for elena to help her visualize the dresses and her choice of deep red roses. gorgeous!!!!
please ignore the fact that the roses are just floating there since their hands are actually behind them. use your imagination people!

it is less than fourteen days till elena's big one! i can't believe it went by that fast for her. my day seems to be dragging it's feet. yes yes, it will seem like it flew by when it FINALLY gets here but as of this moment in time.... it's taking the long road.

three hundred forty six

it has been a very busy two weeks! we visited albuquerque two weeks ago and then we went to zion national park last weekend. both places were absolutely gorgeous! i attached a few photos.
While we were in albuquerque we were able to see the international balloon fiesta which was amazing! at zion we were able to hike to our hearts content. there was one hike that was intense, seriously i have never been on a more intense hike in my LIFE. the last half mile was on no path holding on to a chain on the side of a mountain. at one point the path was two feet wide with 1000 ft drop offs on each side! AHHHHH it was so awesome and to make it even more intense we found out that they loose a couple people each year on this hike. whoo it makes my hands sweat just thinking about it.

hiking was not the main reason we went to zion, we actually went to attend my good friend's wedding, Amanda Carron (well now her name is Green!) The wedding was gorgeous and they literally rode away into the sunset (well i suppose i should mention they were on stick horses and they were galloping around the baseball field).
