I thought today I would share with you one of my all-time favorite videos of my husband and his best friend Ryan.  In college these two took a scuba class and then went out and bought all the gear.  Just like a guy, right?!  Anyway…one night these two got the idea that it would be fun to gear-up and scuba around the house.  Enjoy…

So this past week I went to the DMV to change the name on my license to my new last name “Davenport”.  Well little did I know, they made me take a new picture.  I think everyone has to take a picture anytime they renew now (if you go in).  Well at least my skin waited until after the wedding to do this, but it popped up a big fat zit on my forehead!  I also decided, for some crazy reason, to go with the “no smile” look for my new picture…and I look a tiny bit MAD.  I don’t look bad in the picture, but it definitely could look better.

Oh well, this just gives me incentive to look my best for the next time I get my license renewed. I did still have my honeymoon tan in the picture, so that’s a plus!  Oh yeah, I forgot to mention….my signature is worse than my picture!  Let’s just say that I must have started signing off the pad, because it looks like some guy named Ralph signed my license.

Well, we finally decided on formal wear for the guys.  We decided to go with the J.Crew vest & suit pants.  The groom & best man are wearing a charcoal pinstripe & the ushers are wearing the charcoal pinstripe vest w/ a solid heather grey pant.  They are going to wear a beautiful classy gray Alfani tie with a white pinpoint dress shirt.

The other day we had Derek and Davis try on their vests and pants to make sure everything fit properly.  Without their ties and white shirts they almost looked a tad Amish.  Davis is at the age where he is starting to wear ties more & more.  So his big brother, Derek, stepped in and showed his little bro a thing or two about tying a neck tie.

My wedding dress has officially arrived!  I am so excited.  My mom and I are going to have a dress trying on party.  I’m so glad it made it here in one piece.

Funny Story: My mom called saying she spoke with the shop I purchased my dress from and they shipped it out on Tuesday.  But she also mentioned that there had been a big firey wreck on I-40, the path my dress would head in route to my house!  My dad was half joking, and said “Geez….I sure hope Jennifer’s wedding dress didn’t end up in that wreck!” Ahhhhhh!  Is all I could think.

Luckely, things worked out and my dress is here and I couldn’t be happier.  It took 3 flippin’ months for them to make the gosh darn thing.  Maybe I should have just worn a white tennis skirt & polo shirt!  Cheaper and no wait to have them made.

TTYL,

Jennifer
