Playing Dress-Ups

Ever since Lindsey has gotten taller than me (5 feet, 6.5 inches to my 5 feet 3 inches), it occurred to me that this is the only time she might come close to fitting into my wedding dress. And what good is my big, froufy, $500 wedding gown if all of my girls will be too tall to ever wear it? (Or if they think it's too 1990 to ever wear it?)


So last Friday evening Lindsey and I played dress-ups. I curled her hair and brushed a little mascara onto her lashes, and then we hauled out the dress.

Check this out:

It's almost a perfect fit


Lindsey was two years old when she started asking me if she could have flowers for her wedding. And, wow—look at her now! She looks amazing! But she's still got a wait—her wedding is at least ten years away. She is only 13 1/2!

Did I really ask for flowers at my wedding when I was two? I don't even remember that. However, I do still want flowers at my wedding...(which won't be happening for at least 10 years, so don't worry about that) ;)
