Obviously, we are dressing up for these event. Al bought a really handsome new suit to wear. (Here's where you whistle...) And I, well, I put off buying anything for an extremely long time. I could make a thousand excuses... but I just didn't want to. I have had three children and am raising four. My body does not always do what I want it to do. Plus, I just hate dresses. Seriously, I do. I really enjoy the feeling of being dressed up and acting like an adult but nylons? COME ON. Make up? Seriously?
*sighing*
Thankfully, I have girlfriends who are actually able to act like girls, and have fancy things at their disposal. (They also all happen to be about my size...) I will be borrowing a really beautiful strapless gown a friend had in her closet. (My closet would laugh out loud at me if I ever tried to put a strapless gown inside of it!) it's beaituful, and I am so thankful that she had it.
Now, for shoes...huh. Shoes.
Did I mention I hate to dress up?
I tried really hard. i tried on like ten pairs of stilletos I swear to you. I was at the store with Siobhan and Aisling, and they kept bringing me shoe after shoe. They obviously tried them all on as well....
But, much to their dismay, I went home with these instead:

Love it! I am so bummed out that we are not going to be able to be there next weekend to celebrate (again) with you! Please be on the look out for a gift to arrive in honor of the special occasion. :) Can't wait to see pics and hear all about it!
One of these days we must get together and catch up in person. It has been far, far too long!
