Making Progress

I cannot express just how great it feels to make progress on the endless list of things we need to do or discuss.  We got a good amount done this weekend which made it a lot easier to head back to work (if heading back to work is ever easy).  I've been on the hunt for bridesmaid dresses lately, but have been trying to check out department stores first to see if I could find any to my liking there.  I had thought that they at least might be less expensive for my girls and might make the whole process just a little easier.  Well, after hitting a few stores in the last week or so, I spent what felt like a considerable part of the weekend checking out the rest of the stores on my mental list of places to search.  After hitting department stores in Orland Park on Saturday and then working my way from the Macy's on State Street up Michigan Avenue to the 900 North Michigan shops on Sunday, I have come to the conclusion that getting dresses "off the rack" just might not work.  I am not looking for anything crazy, but what is out there right now just isn't what I was looking for.  Oh well - at least I tried and I can move on to bridal shops now. 

 

Jack had a very quick trip to Michigan this weekend (was there and back within 24 hours), but once he was back, he put the final touches on our Save the Date cards and we got to printing those last night.  He helped get the cards ready while I addressed all of the envelopes, so those should be going out any day now. :) I love seeing the results from our work.  It helps reassure me that we are indeed making progress on things.
