I should reintroduce myself...

hi..I'm Shannon...I just cheated on my blog with Greg :) We spent 4 WHOLE WEEKS together! Can you believe it?? To say the least..we had SO much fun being together again...everyday! All kinds of craziness happened with the Army and orders got switched {like always} butI put him on his flight to his BOLC II training on Saturday! We have already started looking for plane tickets for me to be able to spend 4th of July weekend with him! But then, after that....the next time I see him will be at the Rehearsal!! Can you believe that?? Wow...talk about stress!
Now, as to what I've been doing the past 4 weeks...let's have a quick update so you guys will know that I've honestly been busy and not just neglecting my blog! :)
See the posts below about the OCS Ball and Greg's Graduation...that was a FUN week! We got to come home together after his graduation and spent lots of time with our families since Greg hadn't seen anyone for 3 months! Every evening we also got together with different friends of ours that we have missed! It was awesome to be with my friends AND Greg at the same time. You have no clue how much I miss this...
As far as wedding stuff we accomplished...All my Bridesmaid Dresses are IN! We stopped by and picked up a few the other day. Another HUGE exciting moment...MY DRESS IS IN! I had my first dress fitting on May 30th and I go pick it up for good this Friday, June 12th! It.is.GORGEOUS. I love it more now than I did when I purchased it!
I just ordered all of the bridesmaid shoes....that was a major pain! You might remember the ones I had picked out from a previous post, but due to size issues and availability I had to put the girls in 3 different shoes..but all by the same designer. Here are the shoes...



Oh, and did I mention we booked our HONEYMOON?!?!? We didn't think we were even gonna get one because of, you guessed it, the Army! However, things played out perfectly and we immediately went to see a travel agent. Say hello to my beautiful destination for a solid week...

We will be staying at a Couples Resort in Jamaica!! All-Inclusive...pure luxury! I am so excited! Exactly what I need after having to plan this wedding by myself and be far away from my Fiance for 6 months! Take that Army!

We had our first wedding shower on May 17th! It was so much fun and we got lots of great things! My dad's church {he's a pastor} threw it for us and we were abundately blessed! I will create a seperate post for it..I have some really great pics from it! I am having my 2nd shower this coming Saturday..it is for Family & Friends! The decor is going to be fabulloouuusss and I just need to mention that there will be big hats involved! :)

Well, I'm off to run some errands and buy some wedding presents. Ya'll, I have a wedding or a bridal shower to attend EVERY weekend in June! Talk about wedding season! Hope everyone had a fabulous weekend...please don't hate me for taking a much needed break from the blog world. I'm backkkkkk ;)

I do believe dear bloggy friends that I have found the Bridesmaid Shoes! It has been such a long and difficult search..but I think we have found them! Thanks to my bff/cousin Tasha...she found these beauties.
Hello Fabulousness!





From here!

I wanted something that met these qualifications:

{FABULOUS}

{semi-casual}

{zebra print}

{no black}

{wedge or cork}

Ding, Ding, Ding...we have a WINNER! I haven't sent all the info to my girls yet...but my heart is beating out of my chest so I guess that's a good sign! ;) I adore fabulous & different shoes so I knew it was a "must" for my wedding!

ETA: These are the Bridesmaid Dress! :) I think they are going to look sooo hawt with the above shoes! You?
