so this past weekend JC had a softball tournament in vincennes all day saturday. we didn't get home until around 1 am and finally went to bed around 1:30am. we then had to get up early sunday morning at 5:30 am and head to brownsburg, indiana so that JC could got to an 8 hour umpire school. I obviously wasn't going to sit in the car all day long so I took the car and drove down to plainfield and went shopping there until about noon then i drove on to downtown indy and went shopping at circle centre mall. i got this awesome coach purse for $298. i saw it online a few weeks ago and fell in love with it but never actually planned on getting it. i actually went to the mall to buy the new dooney and bourke fabric heart purse. but stopped at the coach store first....i also bought this adorable earth keyring for $38 at the coach store too. i am so all about "going green" and such and i thought this keychain is like so perfect. :o) I also bought my four bridesmaid's a gift at the coach store....i know that is like a very expensive place to purchase a bridesmaid gift but the way i see it...i mean they spent money on a dress and shoes and they gotta get their hair done and stuff so they deserve a good gift. i'm not going to post on here what it is just incase any of my bridesmaids see this i don't want to give away the suprise. anyways..so i did some major shopping this weekend but i feel like it was well deserved. i know i probably be spending my extra cash on my wedding but i just couldn't resist spending some money on ME! I've already spent probably like around $1200 or $1500 on the wedding...so i thought i deserved to spoil myself a little bit.
so this weekend we are finally getting our engagment pictures taken. i'm so excited. other than our prom pictures jc and i have never had "professional" pictures taken together. so i am so excited for those. i can't wait to print them out and hang them up all around the house and make lots of images for my myspace and webpage and stuff. i always use pics of me and jc for stuff like that and to hang all around the house but they're just the candid pics i take of us. hehe they're pretty good...but these will be awesome. i can't wait!! Our photographer is Samantha McGranahan with The Roxy Studio. She's doing our engaement pictures and our wedding pictures. She is an awesome photographer from what i've seen of her work and i'm so excited to have her as our photographer. I hope she stays around here because I have every intention to having her take my pictures for when i'm pregnant and when we have a baby and a family....for her doing all our portraits and such. It's so crazy thinking about the future like that. I mean JC and i have been together 7 years this coming tuesday, and we've always discussed "our future" but it always seemed so far away...and now that the future is finally becoming the present it's so satisfying. i love justin so much and i can't wait for eachday i'm alive to be with him and enjoy every minute of it.
