Church and Dress update

So, Evan and I have had some problems with getting the church we want. I don't want to go into too much detail, but there have been some communication issues in which we finally had to just go to the church to clear things up. We have a meeting tomorrow with the priest on matters unrelated to a wedding and our membership to the church is almost settled.

This weekend, Josh had a soccer tournament. There was a five-hour gap between the end of the first game and the beginning of the last game of the day. So while Josh was eating pizza with the team and watching mistakes on the video of the first game, my mother and I went to Stonecrest Mall in Lithonia. Our first mission was to find new goalie gloves for Josh. However, we got a little sidetracked. We actually didn't go to any sports stores and forgot about it until Josh called four hours into our shopping asking where we were and if we could get him so that he could find the gloves. Well.....sorry Josh, but we forgot you.

We first went to Macy's just to look around. We went to other stores and I tried on some dresses and we looked at others for bridesmaids-potential wear. I found this one dress that I liked a lot, but I wasn't so satisfied and didn't get it.

We'll see how tomorrow goes. Once we know our wedding date, we can get SO much more done.
