"Mommy, I want to git Married"

Handsome and my 7th anniversary was on the 10th of August and for some reason it really was a BIG deal to me this year! I had gotten his gift {he ended up with a second gift~a new wedding ring that doesn't conduct electricity!} way in advance and hoped we would be able to do something special (though due to the time of year and a certain rally, we wouldn't do much at this time)

Anyway, the Saturday before he was helping some people and I was at home with the kids by myself. Boo was taking a long nap and Princess wanted to watch something on 'TB' so I pulled out the old VHS tape of our wedding and we watched. She was completely into it, asking why Grandma was crying and why Aunt C wasn't there. When it was finished I told her to stay put because I wanted to show her something. I returned from my closet with a long white DAVIDS.BRIDAL bag and she knew, though never seeing it before, that it was 'Mommy's git married dress.' How does she know this? Anyway, the minute she laid her eyes on the dress herself she said she wanted to wear it {she has never asked to wear anything of mine before!} this girl is just playing into my need to make this year, this seventh anniversary something SPECIAL like none other. So she put it on, and drown in it, but she put it on! Along with my tiara, my veil, my wedding necklace {that was my Grandmothers' - her namesake}, and I also let her put on my wedding band. She wanted to put on my 'git married shoes' but I couldn't find them....so here are a few of the pictures from this beautiful day. Oh, and I totally didn't plan on having our wedding picture in the background, it just worked out that way. *smile*sigh*

~So Excited~

~She will be a beautiful bride~

~With Mommy's wedding ring~

~Is this not precious or what?~

~Cheese~



~Has she done this before?~

~Too precious for words~




This is something I think that both her and I will treasure forever, and we shall see if she might be as interested to redo this next year?!?
