arg! i wish that i had a digi to show you some pictures from yesterday! we went to the presideo golf club for brunch with my sister in law, selina's family. we feasted on pasta, bacon, scalloped potatoes and roast beef, just to name a few. the quality was ok, but the service and atmosphere was very nice. the mimosa's were really good too. i had about 3. *hiccup*
afterwards, parkin and i went to check out a couple of churches. i wasn't too impressed with the location of either one of them so we didnt' go into either of them. plus they're both super expensive to rent for the day! so then we went to target and grabbed a couple of things, barnes & noble for some bridal mags, costco for some garlic bread then headed to my brother's house. since we had so much for lunch, we decided to have a small dinner that consisted of soup, salad, and garlic bread. my brother made this very delectible carrot soup. yum... he's become quite the chef through the years. i mean, he's always been a very good cook, but i think he's moved up to amateur chef. it's always a treat to go over to his house for dinner.
ok, here's what i'm talking about not just choosing anybody as a bridesmaid. my cousin is getting married in a couple of months. a little over a month ago, his fiance asked me to be a bridesmaid which was very nice. she said that she wanted me to be a bridesmaid because i was hogan's little cousin, but that was the only reason. i didnt' really consider her a friend because we hardly knew each other, but she asked me and i gratiously said yes. during this past month, she has expressed to me that i am the only girl of all of her bridesmaids that has ever been a bridesmaid before. translation: you know what to do, so youre in charge of everything. i feel bad because i don't want this responsibility! honestly, i have so many other things to do in the next few months for my own wedding, and financially it's going to be very hard for me. just last week, she sent us a price list of what things will cost, and with the dress, hair, shoes, bridal shower and gifts, i'm going to have to shell out at least $300-400. *sheesh* like i have that to spare. i think it's very sweet of them to include me in their special day, and i shouldn't complain as much as i do, but still i think, 'why did she ask me?' it just sounds like she wanted to me help her plan things, and i dont' think that that's a good reason to ask someone to be a bridesmaid. i would have been happy to help without the bridesmaid title.
