Wedding Dress
So I'm not really a traditional kinda girl. I got it into my mind, that I was not going to buy a "wedding" wedding dress. I was looking at bridesmaids dresses and other formal wear. I thought I had found the dress that I wanted, I just needed to try it on. I called the store and they did not have it, they said only two stores had it. I called both stores and they did not have my size! Sad face.
I then researched some more online and found another dress. Once again, no one had it. Finally I got a hold of a bridal boutique, and they had it! Woohoo. Jamie and I made an appointment and went to try it on. While I was there I found out I didn't really like it at all. But I found another dress that I thought was perfect. I got fitted and everything. They put me at a size 20, which freaked me out cause I had a bridesmaid dress at home that was a size 12. They told Jamie they couldn't fit her. So she suggested that we go somewhere else. I looked it up online, and there was a Davids Bridal down the street.
We decide to stop in. When we got there, they told us that we could look but that we could not try anything on cause they did not have any openings.
We walked around the store and noticed they were having a sale. Jamie held up dresses and decided she would fit, so we went to make an appointment for the next weekend. We went to the appointment book, and they said, you know what someone just cancelled, would you to try things on now. We said sure. They said even for the bride, and I was like, well okay even though I figured I was getting the other dress.
They brought me a dress that was on sale for 50 dollars! I was like well that is definately in the budget. I tried it on, and felt it was perfect. So I got a dress! Jamie found a beautiful dress on the sale rack as well for 80 dollars.
We went to check out, and my dress came to 28.48 and Jamie's was 50 dollars. WE MADE OUT! It was like it was meant to be. Go us!

Birthday
For my 30th birthday, Oscar took me to Topolobampo for it. We had an AMAZING dinner! Seriously, it was the most amazing meal. Afterwords he told me he was feeling sick. So we pulled over so that we could switch places. He asked me if I would walk with him to see if he would get sick. (we pulled over at the Adler Planiterium, where you can see the Chicago Sky Line) (and yes I was really slow) So we walked closer to the water and he hugged me. He said "I bet by now you realize I'm not sick" I was like no, as he got on one knee.
He asked me to marry him, and I was so excited! I definately said yes. I couldn't wait to tell my mother, she had been waiting and waiting for this moment. My mother didn't answer her phone! oh no! I called and called and called some more. Then I called a few more times. Finally I left a message for her to call me AS SOON AS SHE GOT THE MESSAGE! So about 3 am, she finally called. I was sleeping so I don't recall exactly what I told her. But she sure was happy.
Yay for getting married.
