I'm officially now home in Page, as of a few hours ago. My stay in Oregon with my sister was great, and I was a baby on the plane when I had to leave. Flying to Phoenix was good too, and it was great to see my parents again, and also my "second mom" Kathy and my best friend Khrista. It was a jam packed weekend with wedding stuff but...I got my wedding dress!!! After going to a couple of different places between Oregon and Arizona, I found several dresses that were absolutely beautiful that I really liked on, but it was difficult because they were all strapless, and for those of you that may not know, I need a dress with sleeves, because we are getting married in a LDS temple.

There were different options to altering the dress so that it had sleeves, but some of them were down right hideous, and the other options you didn't know whether or not it would turn out looking decent, after dishing out all that money to alter it.

But luckily they have more sleeve options in the Mesa area, and I found my dress, and it was made already with sleeves! It actually worked out great, because it fit perfectly and they only had to do the basic alteratings of the bustle in the back and a little on the bottom of the skirt. I'm sorry I won't be sharing pictures though, because Wolfgang can't see it quite yet :) It's such a relief to get the dress out of the way, even though there is a lot more left to do. The hard part about being from a small town though, is that we'll have to take a couple trips to St. George between now and the wedding. In fact, my mom and I already have planned to go this weekend...I have a feeling that so much traveling will get old real fast, although I am already so appreciative of my family and close friends who have helped thus far, and I know there will be more to come, and I am grateful beyond words for that.

Ok, this is getting too long! I'll report about Oregon adventures soon.
