Good Morning!  The weekend is here!  YAY!  I am looking forward to a super fun wedding today!  The weather is going to be gorgeous and hopefully not TOO hot!  There’s a lot that goes into getting ready for a wedding…..cards cleared and formatted….batteries stocked (still on my check list..eek!)…..camera and lenses cleaned….schedules and lineups….so much to do!  The list goes on and on…….I am pretty much ready, but the one thing that I desperately needed to do was to find something decent to wear!  ACK!  Not my specialty….sure I can dress sissy up cute as a bug…but myself…ACK!

So, I headed downtown Sandpoint yesterday to find something to wear….it’s been 2……maybe 3? years since I have bought an outfit that wasn’t a Cabela’s t-shirt or VS jeans or yoga pants!  ha!   If you didn’t know already, I am missing the fashion gene….all those genes went to my sister!    I have to say it was OK…I am not really a clothes shopper..hence jeans and t-shirts…I am a grocery shopper…so WEIRD!   I know….but hey….we all have our own special weirdness!    It’s not that I don’t like to dress up in cute dresses and stuff…..it just isn’t me….or so I think.   I always admire when other women have nice sun dresses on and I think how cute they look….then when I try to imagine myself in that outfit…my heart starts racing….I can’t breathe….and I am screaming inside…..NO!  Not a dresssssssssss!   Trust me…the thought quickly leaves my mind (forced out more like it)….and I am safe…….back to my shorts or yoga pants I go!  Unfortunately for me, I don’t think I can swing beach shorts or yoga pants while professionally shooting a wedding!  Psh!  I know!  Whatever.

So with kids in tow…YES!  I am mentally insane taking my children clothes shopping……I went downtown and did find some cute outfits that I really liked at Zany Zebra and Finan McDonald yesterday….so I should be set for another 2…maybe 3 years!     Now my mother can stop harping at me telling me “to buy something new!  You wear that outfit to everything!”…(and I do)….but no longer mother!  ha-ha! I got some new duds and I am stylin!  I think?  Well…my husband said the outfits looked good….but what does he know?  He lives in Carharts…plumbers glue stained Carharts! (my favorite, but definitely not the most popular fashion trend)……AND he’s trained to compliment his wife!   Well, there MIGHT have been some truth to it since he’s not sure what I look like dressed up being that I live in yoga pants, jeans, or shorts…..he possibly could have been shocked by a dress!  Make that 3 dresses!….poor guy…..probably got overload.  Oh well…..he will live…and so will I.  After all…a dress isn’t so bad…right?  I think I can…I think I can….oh what the heck…it’s way too hot out to wear pants….I know I can!  And maybe…just maybe…I might have it documented….for the record….but don’t hold your breath! 

Ok….enough of my clothing woes…..dress woes that is……back to the original purpose of this post……the weekend is here!  YAY!   Wishing you all an amazing weekend!  Relax & enjoy!  Cheers!  xo
