I said, It takes longer to change your address at the DMV!!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha, i was thinking the same thing last night it was so easy! there was no line, no one waiting after us, signed some papers, she didnt even ask for our ID! we just handed them to her anyways. bing bang boom, we're approved!

I thought the Jane Austen looked old-fashion-y and made me think of mexico all fonts available at dafont.com

becky its awesome! you look LOVELY!

yay! thanks for the heads up!

rebecca they look awesome! and i like the black/natural combo. looks good and also if the bottom gets dirty or wet it wont look funny later

gals, sorry to burst your bubble, but amy and andy dont get married until friday the 27th. i think she just put in the whole wedding week in the calender. maybe we can pause this thread till friday??

leslie, gorgeous! it looks really nice on you, and i love the dip in front, sort of a modified sweetheart. love it!

oh wow jeez saturday! i cant believe it snuck up so fast!!!!

i saw that strap, how cool, huh? where are you getting it? they have the orange one at best buy, but costco as it in the black, and it comes with a little kit, charger, case, etc. i dont know if you get all that elsewhere. pricewise, i was suprised to see the same ar costco as everywhere else, about $279. let me know what you end up with!

have a fantastic day karen! you deserve it!!

oh man! cant see the pics! i'll have to run home and see them tonight glad to hear it went great! cant wait to read your review!

Just got this email from MGM MGM Grand, Las Vegas just in case we have any last minute planners

i'm straddling the fence on this one. on one hand i think that as long as you are attentive to your dogs needs, food, water, shade, shelter when needed, then i think you are in the right and being a good dog-mommy given the situation. on the other hand, i personally am with tammy, dont see the point of having outdoor-only animals. but then, i am not outdoors much, so really, that's why i feel that way. i can see if you were leaving them in extreme temps with no shelter or water, whatever, then i'd be hot at you! but it sounds like your family needs to be told to sod off

nicole, i wanted to get that camera for doug, but i've run out of $ he wants it so bad, let me know what you think of it when you get it. i've heard you really can NOT take it more than 10 ft under, or its toast. unless you get the 30ft one, but it's like $150 more, somthing like that.
