Shopping, shopping!

We're now under 200 days until the wedding! The time continues to fly by, and it'll be here before we know it! This past weekend was the first of probably quite a few dress shopping trips. For some weird reason I wasn't invited as Monica said I can't see the dress until the wedding! Dumb traditions!

To be honest, hanging out in a dress shop while a woman tries on dress after dress after dress isn't my idea of a good time. Instead, I went and saw Iron Man 2 with Welona! Yeah! Monica at least accepted my input on the wedding dress. We browsed quite a few wedding sites and I pointed out dresses that I thought looked good. I'll tell you what though. There are some hideous wedding dresses out there! The picture that I have included in this blog is the pic of the dress that I liked the most out of all the dresses we looked at.

This weekend is more wedding planning as we'll be heading back up to Loveland with Monica's mom and sis, Vivian. We get to taste the menu for the wedding and we'll meet with the florist. They're also going to be performing a ceremony for another couple so we'll get to see how they setup for weddings in person. Oh and speaking of the menu, I don't know if I ever said what it's going to be! Did I? Anyway, we're doing a buffet, and here are the items...

Sweet Corn and Roasted Poblano Chowder
Wedge Salad
Coleslaw
Roasted Red "B" Potato Salad
Tri-color Melon Salad, Mint Infusion

Raspberry-Chipotle Barbecue Chicken
Marinated Grilled Ribeye Steak
Shrimp and Vegetable Kebabs
Poblano Corn Bread
Corn on the Cob and Fat Tire Baked Beans
Salt Roasted Yukon Potatoes

Sounds pretty good right!? Enjoy the week all!
