dress shopping

last weekend, i flew to california with april. elisabeth also flew in from portland and we had 2 intense days of shopping! on sunday, my mom, joanna, elisabeth, mary (april's friend, also affectionately known as our adopted sis) and myself hit the bridal shops with april - looking for the dress. and while i won't post pictures of it... i did happen to catch a few of mary, elisabeth and jo looking at april (without them knowing).

this one is when april decided she had found her dress.

there were tears, of course... lots of love... and lots of joy...
