Spring Break!

Thanks to Ben's Spring Break being this week, we jumped on the opportunity to go to Mom and Dad's for the weekend. But, before we could leave the cities Friday night, we (meaning I because I'm the one with the job and steady income) filled out an application for our own apartment! We really like the future home and there will be plenty of room for visitors.

While at home we had Leesa take engagement pictures and she did a great job! Her blog has a sneak peek of the outcome.
We also colored Easter eggs! Ben is a lot more crafty than anyone would ever think-he even specially brought out a hairdryer to finish up the details on a couple eggs.
Ben enjoyed some church ball with Ben which gave me the perfect time to try on my dress. Macey really liked playing dress-up and had lots of fun looking at all the fabric and beads.
We also had fun with Miss Macey. Macey and Ben are obviously going to be great friends. Not only did she ride on his shoulders, but he also helped her learn how to play with the blocks she got for her birthday.

We enjoyed our little weekend getaway. It's nice to have somewhere we can go and put everything else on hold for a little while.

ugh

This morning I took a survey. At the end it asked those general questions about gender, race, age. I didn't realize it, but I'm in a new age bracket. How can that be?

While that was disappointing, because of my survey I stopped to take advantage of this deal on my way to work and got the exact same survey! Now, I can ease my sorrows over my age with another awesome deal!

Speaking of awesome deals...

the Girl Scouts stopped by the other day and Ben bought some cookies. They were delivered to the Clark's so I got to sneak a taste of them before I give them to Ben. Hopefully, there will be some left...

boring

I still have 23 minutes left of work and no one has updated their blogs. What am I supposed to do, people?

I can't really complain. I haven't been to up on the blogging. Ben has even blogged more than I have this month! If you want to know what's been going on with me read his blog or Mom's blog. Other than that, I just work.

So not only am I bored at work, I am just boring these days!

27 Dresses

No, I've never seen the movie (it came out while I was on my mission and I haven't gotten round to seeing it yet), but this weekend I think I tried on 27 dresses.

Gayle at Fantasy Bridal put me in about 10. I liked some of them alright.

I tried 3 on at Bridal Expressions. I really liked one of them.

Sweetheart Bridal had, oh 7, that were worthy of trying on. I really really liked one.

Walker's Bridal had 0.

Allyse's Bridal had a consultant who kept pulling dresses and I didn't want to try them on. I didn't like any of the 7 or so she pulled.

The Sister Missionary Mall had 2 dresses I really liked, too, and had an awesome sale too!

So, after trying on almost 30 dresses this weekend, I came back to Minnesota with three more to add to my collection. I'd say it was a successful weekend!
