Wedding Attire

Hello, hello!  

Well, Joel and Virginia's wedding finally came.  It brought excitement, - not only for the wedding party, and planners, but for my family (or at least two in particular) who were in need of clothes suitable for the ceremony.  

I was in need of a dress. Period.  I'd been looking online, but the definition of "modest" must have changed in the past years, and the online looking didn't work.  We stopped at Jen's Again and Again (retail store) because Mom had told me about a maroon/burgandy dress she'd seen there. When we arrived, it was still there.  I tried it on and was in. love. It was darling, the right length, and cute.  So, what else could we do but buy it!?  



Seeing that we were already planning on going to Goodwill, we went the next day to look for some of my family's attire.  While everyone went and looked at the merchandise of their interest, I went to the shoe section and began looking for a "cute, slightly heeled (because I'm a bit on the short side) shoe".  Nothing seemed to turn up until...Aha!  I found it, the "darlingest" shoe ever.  I loved them. So, we bought them!






Mom bought some cute hair clips for the occasion, and I wore one of them in the hairstyle which Charity composed.



A pearl necklace completed the "accessory department", which m'dear sister Anna, let me borrow.



Charity, a wonderful friend did my hair in a style that was really cute...and thankfully, one that I liked.  So, thank you dear, Charity!

Awesomeness

We got a new computer... I think in September, because or old one was in the process or did crash. :( So, we bought a new one...sensible thing to do. :D So...we got this computer, and were all excited about the things we would be able to do. Sadly, we still couldn't upload pictures, or edit our design on blogger...:( Which we were hoping to do.



I asked a woman who is rather good with computer if she knew what was wrong, and if she could take a look. She looked..and tried...and tried..and tried somemore...but still couldn't figure it out. She thought it was Java but couldn't repair it. She said, if she came across something to help, she would tell us.


One of the guys, or girls mom talked to, thought our brand, new, computer was junk...it couldn't be, we had just bought it..."more confuzzledness"...



Lately, our NEW computer, has been acting up. :(( All this blah, blah, blah stuff...Mom has been making calls, trying things, been given instructins, called some more, etc. But today, after what probably seemed to her, a million calls...They figured it out!



One of the many people mom talked to, came up with the idea, that they should take all the programs off and start over...and it actually worked! I can now, edit the design, and upload pictures onto blogger!!!



So, that is how our computer now works!

Happy Birthday, Daddy!

Today, August 3rd is my wonderful, awesome, loving, funny, kind, daddy's birthday!!!

On Sunday we had a "surprise" birthday party for him, but I guess he said he found out we were planning something - but he didn't know when. We had a lot of people, and had a lot of fun!

I am so thankful God has provided and (that I was born to) such wonderful and Godly parents. I'm glad He has given me my DAD!!!

My dear Dad, is a Minister, truck driver, counselor, an encourager, perfectionist, and most of all my dad. So, I would just like to say to my wonderful dad:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!!! HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!

We might go "go carting" tonight. :D

Happy birthday Dad, love you!
