Finished...Kinda

Well I finished the dress enough to take pictures in. I think it turned out pretty good. I just need to reinforce some places that I had to hand sew.

Pictures were fun. I haven't seen any of them yet. But she's a good photographer so I'm sure they'll be good. I'm sure I'll post a few when we get them.

But the hardest part is over. YAY!

Shhh Don't Tell Lincoln

Ok so I should probably start this blog off by saying something that is supposed to be a surprise to Lincoln. Maybe something like his ring came in yesterday and I need to go pick it up. This really did happen by the way. But it has nothing to do with that...

We are taking engagement pictures on Saturday and I am also doing bridals. The only problem is that I'm not done with my dress...I was complaining to Lincoln about being stressed cause I left it to the last minute. He patiently kept say that I could do it and he knew I could finish it. Let just insert here that I'm sooooo grateful I'm marrying someone who is patient with me and lets me complain and be stressed. Anyway I should be working on my dress now, but I just can't bring myself to do it....UGH. Hence, don't tell Lincoln. But he would probably just role his eyes and encourage me to work on it. Gotta love him.

So that is all....I think I'll go and work now.

Stolen Camera = No Illinois Pics

So Lincoln had his mission reunion last weekend. We decided to go and meet up with some of his good buddies. The reunion was nothing of great note, but we will remember the night just because our (my mother's) camera got stolen. The story goes as follows....

After the reunion a group of us (mostly Lincoln's close friends from the mission and their plus 1's) decided to go eat. Well of course it had to be Indian food. For those of you who don't know, that's where Lincoln served his mission. Anyway, we go to this really good restaurant in Salt Lake. I don't remember the name, but all the guys agreed that it was the best Indian restaurant. It's on 3300 S and 700 E. You should try it out.

Anyway we decided to take the camera in. Well we accidentally left it on the table when were leaving. We all congregated outside to talk some when two girls walked in the restaurant to charge their cell phone. Upon seeing the girls the nice hostess mistook one of them for a girl in our party. She told them she found the camera and proceeded to give it to them.

This is the part that makes me angry. The girls took the camera and walked right past us with it. By the time I realized I didn't have it with me it was to late. The lady at the restaurant felt horrible and said she would call if they returned it. However, it doesn't look to promising.

There is one upside to the story. My mother (whom the camera belonged to) had decided to get a new one. So by the time we got home to tell her she didn't need it anymore. Thus saving us money to buy her a new one.

The saddest part is I didn't have a chance to download any of our pictures from Illinois. All of those pictures are gone. I don't even care about the camera I just want my pictures back.

Sad day.
