AW Thursday

Well, we all know (and think) that Bobbileigh's pictures are gorgeous.  Does anyone else have any good news to share?

Re: AW Thursday

  • We went shopping last night for something to wear this weekend and I had a good shopping time for once.  Usually I hate it and have a hard time finding something I like but this time I had a hard time narrowing them down so I ended up with 2 dresses (yes, dresses.  I always said my wedding dress was the first and last time people would see me in a dress so this is not normal Jaymi behavior).  It was a good end to an extremely crappy day and hopefully a good start to what will be an even worse day today.
  • Well, I went shopping too for a dress last night.  I actually had two picked out but Bill burst my bubble when he said, "I hate the pink one".  I just kept saying "I can't believe you hate it.  I hate it when you wear the light green shirt with the black pants but I haven't said anything up until now." 
  • I don't have any AWs that aren't wedding related! :-p

    DH says that when I try on anything pink.  He pretty much just doesn't like pink on me.  Also, I hate that when DH says he hates something I don't buy it or stop wearing it.  If I tell him I hate something of his he just says okay and keeps wearing it.  Ugh.

  • I have nothing to AW, and have done nothing in the way of work outs to contribute this week.

    In short, i'm a boring, lazy wife this week. The end.

  • The other day I was walking our dog, Stella in our neighborhood.  H hadn't come home from work yet. I was walking up our street and H pulled up in his car behind me.  He pulled over and was laughing he said:

    "I didn't recognize you at first and thought 'that's the first hot girl I've seen in this neighborhood' Then I saw Stella and realized that hot girl is my wife"

  • I am going to Hiatus spa with my mom on Saturday for Spa Week and getting a facial.  I could easily become addicted to facials I think.

    That's cute. Last year a friend and I got ready for a halloween party at my house and met our husbands at the party. We got to the party and mingled awhile before seeing our husbands. She went to the bathroom and I walked up on the group of guys just in time to catch my friend's husband talking about how hot the girl dressed as Lady Gaga was. He literally had no idea it was his wife.

  • That's where I went for a facial (which I won in a drawing, so it was free) the week of the wedding and I looooved it. I'd never had one before. Then I stopped by Panini and got a cupcake. It was the most relaxing thing I could have done four days before the wedding. :)

    I am excited to be a guest...I've actually never been this excited about going to a wedding before, not that I have been to a ton.  I think it's because my perspective is different now, now that I am married and had a wedding?

    ooo, I'm getting one on Friday at Facelogic.  I'm very excited!  It was a Groupon special a while back so I think I only paid $30.  Yes!

     Have fun!

    I've heard good things about Facelogic.  Let us know how it goes.  :)  I'm kind of nervous to get a facial.  I have really sensitive skin.  I don't want my face to turn into a huge red blob.

    Oh, I have the MOST sensitive skin.  I've gotten them before at Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spa.  Heavenly.  They don't do anything abrasive.  Go get one!

    I'll let you know how Facelogic is next week.

  • This is a flame modified to be an AW.

    I stuck to my guns this morning with a student.  I tend to cave in sometimes at the end of the six weeks but I told a student that he had to come in yesterday morning to make up a quiz from before Spring Break (five weeks ago now) or I would let the zero stand.  He didn't show up but came to talk to me this morning (not yesterday during the day) to say he couldn't come.  I told him I wouldn't let him make it up at this point and that I told him that yesterday.  He came to talk to me again before his class started and said he didn't understand why I wouldn't let him.  So I let him have it:  "I had a student who lost his dad four weeks ago and has missed two weeks and has made up all his work.  So no."  

  • I got a facial from a Facelogic groupon before the wedding.    I really enjoyed it and didn't have any issues.  Would definitely go back.

    I second this.  They were amazing!

  • Speaking of Sarah's wedding, what is everyone wearing because I'm no fashionista.

    I'm wearing a dress.  It's a sheath, I think blue and gray/silver, silky-ish material, with heels.  This all depends on if it is clean, because I have been working late all week and I keep forgetting to see if it's in the closet or not.  :(

  • Well I'm wearing a white dress :-p  Actually its ivory!

    Wasn't there talk about everyone wearing their wedding dress somewhere while back?  

    Edit: Here is the black/silver dress (it will be worn with a bolero as well) and here is the pink/black one.  DH says to wear the black and silver one because the other seems more like a summer dress.

  • Jaymi,

    I like both of those.  I may have to hit up the Dress Barn in Denton now.  I went to the one in Flower Mound last night.

  • Oh my gosh, Sarah, what if they all come wearing their dresses too?!

    Haha, I'm kidding. :)

    It wasn't our intention to go to Dress Barn but we saw their display and they had a TON of cute dresses inside.  And you get a clutch-purse-thing if you spend a certain amount- you may have seen that last night.

    Tiffany- this was supposed to be a secret. Now she knows :(
