Weekend Recap!

Wanna know what's awesome? When people ask me when I'm getting married and I'm able to say "this October.." b/c now it's THIS YEAR! But seriously I have no idea how the heck we're a week into 2013 already...crazy!

Friday

Went to dinner donning my crimson to support the Sooners and celebrate Sara's birthday with friends. Since I went to TU, I kind of think we're the Switzerland of Oklahoma football and really just support the home team regardless whether it's OSU or OU...unless they'playing us...duh. 

Saturday

My mom has wanted to be "included" (I put it in quotes b/c she keeps saying that word) in the wedding planning process, but there hasn't been a whole lot to be included in so far really. Anyhoo, the wedding show was this weekend and I decided it was the perfect way to include her in some festivities. The parking lot was like a drivers ed simulator of random people walking all over like wedding planning zombies on speed, cars coming out of everywhere, etc. I kind of remember it as everyone having a crazed look in their eyes and wearing veils, but I don't think that's what was going on in reality. :) Whatever. Anyway, we opted to avoid the insanity after I cursed loudly at someone who almost hit me and totally freaked out my mother and parked at the nearby Target and hiked toward the hotel where the show was taking place. 

That show was... whoa. Have you been to one of those suckers? I mean.. in a way, it's great for people like me who have certain things they love researching  on their own, but aren't as good at planning certain other things. It also kind of forces you to check out options where you're completely lost and have no idea what to do (ie flowers). But good grief there was so much going on! And so.many.people. I'm also seriously regretting signing up for information from a few booths b/c I think my email is going to be forever spammed. *le sigh* Oh well. Anyhoo, I have to admit I've always wanted to go to the wedding show, so it was fun. :) It was good times with my mom, too. We had a few laughs at some of the random things at booths...and we tasted a lot of cake. A lot. It also got me jumpstarted with planning again. 

Speaking of, I got home from the wedding show and booked two appointments to go try on dresses in a couple of weeks! Eee! I haven't gone yet, so I'm really excited! All my friends keep telling me to have an open mind, even if there's a dress style I think I'll love the most.

...night

Saturday night, Eric and I headed to Abuelos, where they serve very large drinks (see below) and then to see Jack Reacher (Tom Cruise's new flick). Gotta admit.. Tom might be a little cray cray, but you forget all about it in his movies. I'm also semi convinced he's an alien b/c he seriously doesn't look any older.

Sunday

All the Christmas decor came down. I loved being festive and looking at our pretty tree, but it's also really nice to have the space back again. Eric and I may or may not have eaten Mexican food again tonight. Whatever. I'm pretty sure our babies someday will prefer salsa to milk.

Hope everyone had a good weekend!
