oh man, life has been a bit of a whirlwind since john proposed! we finally set a date (9-27-08)and put down $ on the reception hall and church this past weekend. Mom and I went dress shopping yesterday and... bought one!!
It was the first dress I tried on. I look so beautiful in it, I feel like a princess

is it bad that i'm absolutely in love with my dress? hehe
here are the stock pictures from the internet - can't get too good of a look, but it'll give you an idea!
mom says it looks better on me - but I think she's just saying that cause she's my mom!
everything is progressing really quickly - it's nice because I'm home right now to do a bunch of stuff, and then i can come back in the middle of the summer to help finish everything up.
does anyone know where to find a good checklist for this wedding planning stuff??
