Kaitlin Tries on First Wedding Dress!

Today we went to try on Demetrios dresses at the Macy's at Tyson's Corner. Kaitlin tried on a few first which was super exciting. Jenna and I got to see her try on dresses for the first time! Sorry Pam! She tried on a variety of dresses and learned what she felt comfortable in, what kind of fits she liked better and even what kind of material she liked so it was definitely successful. All dress places say you're not allowed to take pictures but of course I snuck some!

Jenna and I waiting. 

i really loved this one -- i think it was the first one she tried on. sparkly! 

haha i loved when they were like 'do you wanna try on the veil too?' you can't see the details in this picture but the veil has the prettiest sparkle on the trim.

Kaitlin really liked this material and style. Had to take pictures quickly so obviously candid!

I tried on some and liked one a lot. it was all lacy and had a really long bow which i could get to match the BM dress color. I really liked the bottom which had the lace overlay that was a bit longer than the under part. I'm forgetting what that's called but it was a very pretty bottom!

Afterwards we went to the Holocaust museum which I've actually never been to other than for a lecture after hours. The museum exhibits were pretty moving and i liked some of the interactive aspects of it. Definitely a museum to check out if you're in the area and have interest in the event or history in general. 

We went out to Ledo's for dinner tonight where I had my buffalo chicken cheese fries. mmm.

Tomorrow Kaitlin and Jenna leave and so does Sketchy -- for his bachelor party. It's going to be social overload to completely empty house! =(

I had planned on having a fondue girl's night but cancelled that since it doesn't seem to be too good of a date for most folks and also didn't feel like cleaning and hosting anything. sigh. 

This weekend in general i'd like to do something fun but not sure what yet. Definitely want to keep my mind off of New Orleans though! 

I made Sketchy this 'bachelor party' basket.

he looks really happy in this picture. sigh.

basket.

super ready for his trip tmm. =)
