I like the second monogram design you made. OH! And I realized you and your DH have the same monogram as my DF and I. Lol! That's awesome!

So, I found a dress on Ebay that I loved. It's a shade of lavender in this picture but the one on sale was white.

Unfortunately, I have gotten used to getting my best friend's opinion for things like this. We used to work together and so I would just call her over to my office, show her what I liked, and got instant opinions. Well, life is not as simple now that we don't work together. I emailed her the dress yesterday but she didn't see the email until today.

I, on the other hand, couldn't stop thinking about the dress. So, first thing this morning, I decided to get it even without anyone's opinion. So, imagine my disappointment when I go back to ebay and the dress has been sold. I was heartbroken...

I have learned my lesson, next time if I love it, I am not waiting for opinions.

Then I found this choker necklace that I really like.

I would really like it with rose quartz stones since my colors are silver and pink. I contacted the seller but she doesn't have it in rose quartz. So, I am not sure whether to wait and see if in time I can find it in rose quartz. I am afraid I will end up with neither...The listing ends in a day so I don't have much time to think about it. What do you think? Should I just get it? Or should I wait and see?

Aww, what a bummer that that pretty dress you wanted got sold! Well, I'm sure all that means is that you'll find one that's even prettier and just perfect for you!

As for the choker, if you have any doubts about it, I'd probably wait. It's best to be 100% sure you're getting what you want. Especially when it comes to ebay or etsy, since most sellers don't accept refunds. (It is lovely though!)

Hi Aymee! Your family is absolutely adorable!

I can't wait to see more of your plans. My favorite monogram is the first one. I love how it incorporates the DCL icon and your initials.

Thanks for reading and for sharing your feedback on the monogram!

So, I've been looking at dresses again and I have found two that I love!

Dress One

Dress Two

Remember, I am on the plus side so the dresses will look slightly ( ) different on me. What do you all think?

Then, I also found this other dress I fell in love with. My BFF said it wasn't weddingish enough but I liked it so much that I thought I would buy it anyway. I could wear it for dinner another night on the cruise.

I decided to wait and see...I saw it was relisted so I have kept it on my watch list until I pick my dress.

So, I have just spoken to Brie and have been penciled in for the September 2, 2010 cruise. I am very excited about that. She will call me back at the one year mark to confirm.

The only disappointing thing is that the 2010 prices came out and they now consider a DCL vow renewal and wedding the same. So, the price has gone up by $1000.

All in all, I think it's still worth the price!

 

[LittleStinkerbelle]

Congrats on getting penciled in!!! That's a shame that they're raising the price by so much. Now I have to live vicariously through you gals.

That pink dress is beautiful. I agree it's not very weddingy, but it's plenty cruisy

I like the 2nd white dress you posted, but maybe that's because it's very wedding dressy and I'm all for the whole wedding dressy thing right now

That choker is really nice, but if you're not 100% then I wouldn't get it. I agree, wait till you get your dress, then you'll know if it's going to match or not.

 

[HeatherNJNC]

You have a beautiful family! I love love love that pinkish dress! Where di you find it if you don't mind me asking? You could definitely wear that a lot! So cute!

 

[ghoulish delight]

Dress number one is so cute!! That gets my vote!

It's an Alfred Angelo dress. I got it on Ebay for about $35. So, I think I got a good deal.

Dress number one is so cute!! That gets my vote!

Thank you for reading and for always giving me your opinions. I look forward to them!

Thanks for the feedback. I just found out that they don't have the first one in my size anymore. But maybe that's just fate...

I haven't gotten the choker just yet. I keep going back to it all of the time, so I think it's just a matter of time.

Here we are on Pirate Night onboard the Disney Magic last month. I will be posting more pictures soon.

Your family is super cute! I love the hawaiian disney garb where did you find it? Everything looks great so far- can't wait to follow your plans!

 

[trudy88]

I especially like the Ebay dress. It looks "flowy". I really love chiffon!

Thank you! I got the outfit at Disney Shopping Online. Every year they have family hawaiian outfits. We've been getting them every year since my daughter was born. It's almost like a tradition at this point.

Thank you! I am really into chiffon right now.
