the elusive dress. . .found!

Many of you know my little sister is getting married this year! We have to wait all the way until October, but this weekend made their engagement and upcoming nuptials finally seem SO real because . . . my Biffer found her wedding dress!!!! My mom, sister and I searched long and hard one weekend in ATL back in January and came back empty-handed. But, as we headed out of town this weekend in search of the elusive dress, we were thinking positive thoughts and sure enough "the one" was found! It was a quick trip, but she scored, and so will Kevin when he sees her on their wedding day! Wink, wink! :) Anyway, it was such a fun experience! The heavens opened and the light shone down on her when she put this dress on. Brought tears to all 3 of our eyes. What a gorgeous bride she will be in October! I had lots of memories coming back to me from 10 years ago when I was searching for my dress and my little sister was in high school! She was looking at me as such a grown up getting married and had visions of her future wedding and mate down the road. Now I am looking at her, all grown up and taking care of her wedding plans, and I am so excited about what's ahead for them. Marriage is the most important relationship the Lord blesses us with, aside from our relationship with Him, and I can't wait to see how the Lord blesses Mary and Kevin with each other!!

There was a huge mirror inside the botique and since I couldn't take a picture of my sister until she purchased a dress, I had fun taking a few shots of my mom to capture memories from our trip!


Lots and lots of dresses to try on. . .


Mom's face when we think this is the dress. . .


Mom's face when we know this is the one. . .


And of course, no one can see the bride in her dress before the wedding day (except for her mom and sister)! So, here's a peek of my beautiful and uber silly little sister in her wedding dress!


I love you, Biff!
