The Date

Hello All,
I hope everyone had a nice weekend.  Saturday, husband and I went out for our 26 year anniversary which was actually on Wed.  As mentioned before I wore my new Banana Republic dress that I have been wanting since the first time I saw it.
I know I am not 5'8" & 100 LBS like the model shown wearing it in the magazine add,
 but I love the dress any way!!
Bonus: dress has pockets, I love pockets.
Husband and I made a day of it on Saturday. 
 We started the afternoon off by visiting the only brewery we have here in Charlotte. 
 The Old Mecklenburg Brewery. 
 It is only 2 years old, but it was fun.
  We toured the behind the scenes, drank some yummy beer, hung out with the cool, young crowd and even brought home a growler. 
I piled on lots of silver jewelry with this dress. 
 I thought about some wood pieces, but they just seemed to heavy and hot.
I slapped my high wedges on because this dress is ridiculously long and off we went.
After our tour, we had some yummy food and came back home to watch a movie. 
 After the movie, well.....
 that's just private business! :)

It was a nice relaxing celebration and that is just what we needed and wanted!

It's a pretty dress!
It sounds like a lovely anniversary.
I've read several blog posts about divorce lately. It's amusing because they were intertwined with advice about how-to remain married.  I'm not sure why someone who's divorced is the best source on that topic.

Seems like people who've managed to reamin happily married don't have so much to say about it.

Target does a great job copy catting designer shoes

That dress is gorgeous. And so are you, my sweet Brett! How did it feel being the prettiest woman in the room? Because I'm sure you were.

I want this dress, obviously. So, I will email you my address and I expect it in the mail by next Tuesday.

Thanks,
Tracy
