    I've been looking in magazines and online and such but I haven't gone into a store yet. When we go on vacation to Massachusetts we're going to stop by that Vows store from I Found the Gown just so I can get an idea of what I like. I probably won't actually buy the dress until 6-9 months out. I'm not going to get a designer gown so I can wait a bit longer.

    I have some pretty ridiculous back problems that have been acting up lately so I haven't done anything but diet for a while. Before it got to be 1000 degrees everyday I was hiking pretty consistently, at least 3 times a week, but it's just too hot for that now lol
