The most boring sleepover ever

Ha, ha, ha! I didn't forget about this blog. I swear. I'm just having a hard time with the recaps and admitting it's all over. Anyway, I left off we had just finished our rehearsal dinner and were headed back to the hall to do some last minute set up. I mentioned in an earlier post that our table runners didn't arrive until that afternoon, after set up had already taken place. So basically we had to run back to the hall to place all the table runners, but it was also the perfect excuse to look over every little detail and make sure it was perfect. It was!

After dancing around a bit and a few "Oh my goodness, this is really happening!" we all decided to call it a night and head to our respective places to spend the night. Mr. Tal and I decided to go with tradition and spend the night apart. In his place my sisters spend the night at our apartment with me so I wouldn't be lonely and I wouldn't freak out. I had a great night planned out, we were going to watch a movie and have some popcorn and chocolate and talk and giggle like when we were little. However, by the time we got back to my apartment and settled it was already around 10 o'clock at night. We had to be up by 7AM to all shower and get dressed to go to our hair appointment. So we chatted a little bit and one sister took her shower that night so it wouldn't be so hectic in the morning. By 10:30 I took a Xanax (hey, don't judge, I needed sleep) and we all crawled into our beds and fell asleep. So much for my grand sleepover plans.

I do remember that I slept surprisingly well that night, which is unusual for me when I am excited/nervous about something.

Next up: The girls get pretty!

The Slumber PAR-TAY

This past weekend was UH-MAZING!!! Let's see where should we start...at the beginning, I guess.

Saturday started off with me getting myself purty and turning green with envy over the fact that Mr. Tal could get ready in 2.5 seconds (and still look hot). After I got ready, I packed up all my little things and then I headed over to David's Bridal to meet my mom for her fitting. After some pins and money transactions we headed back to my place to pick up Pepper and my stuff and then headed to my parent's house to pick up my sisters and T. Finally we were on the road and on our way to C-bus.

We arrived at sis-to-be's house a smidge late (stupid traffic) but it was okay. The house was decorated with streamers, balloons, and some of the tamer Playgirl pictures with Mr. Tal's head glued on (yes, I'm serious, yes it was hilarious). We spent the first hour and a half talking, drinking Manda-tinis (delicious), eating and having a grand old time. Then we left for Bucca di Peppo. This is where the pictures from the evening started.

Like my veil? I think it's hot. That Momma Tal in the background

Sister A and T (known that night at Hot-T)

Like Sis-to-be's face? Those girls behind her are cheerleaders who tried to sing Journey in the lobby...it was torture.

Momma Sal and Sister E!

Bestie K and Me at the table!

Someone's finger, Sis-to-be and Momma Tal before ordering.

Pepper Anne!

Bestie after dinner and a pitcher of sangria (hahaha, awesome)!

After dinner we headed back to the house and played Wii, watched a movie, ate and drank some more. It was a really fun night, and I think everyone had a great time. I especially, enjoyed the festivites.
