And while I love Bree's dashing wit and of course, her pearls, I'm not her. But now I have accepted that it's okay that I am not perfect, but that I am me. And this weekend is just what I need!
First, I am getting off early today (which is well deserved, considering the 12 hour days I put in this week). Next, I am headed to Atlanta- always a plus to see my bother and Grace.

I have new dresses that actually fit (and my hubs even said one looks a little big, which made me feel amazing since this baby weight is darn hard to drop). The luncheon mom and I are throwing Satruday morning is going to be lovely & Southern & just plain incredible. The cathedral will be beautiful (as will the bride ;). And the reception will be a blast! Actually any time with Auntie Em and Uncle Cliff is a blast.
I really can't think of a better way to spend a celebration of
