I have the best friends!

Today is the first day of spring and the first time I've been out with just a few of my girl friends in a long time! We couldn't have asked for nicer weather for the road trip! Paige, April, Erin, and little miss Brenna, and myself headed to Roanoke to go shopping and to meet my sister-in-law. The mission-to find a bridesmaid dress!

Since I've been in 7 weddings I know this is no easy task and can become a bit overwhelming when everyone in the wedding is a different body shape! I went in with the color I wanted and just told the girls to pick out what they liked and just try them on and we could decide. I even told them I didn't mind if they got different dresses (same color) as long as they looked nice standing together. They ended up trying on several different dresses but we found one that they all liked. I think it's very pretty and will look good on all of them. I hope my two bridesmaids that couldn't make it today agree! We missed you Sarah and Karen! We also found my niece's flowergirl dress and got it ordered too!

After ordering the dresses we headed out to get something to eat. It's so nice to just sit and chat with your best friends. I don't know what I would do without these girls. They are all amazing women and I'm so blessed to have each of them in my life. They didn't have to be in my wedding but I'm so thankful they wanted to share the day with me. I know the dresses weren't cheap girls and if I could afford to buy a dress for each of you I would have! Thank you girls for being awesome friends.

I think our mission was accomplished and everyone seems to be satisfied with the dress. Here's a pic of the dress in the "Lipstick" color.
