The following day

Of course I wanted to write about my picture taking experience! But I have to say both me and Seth had a GREAT day yesterday! Yesterday was the first day that since Seth has been here and we were both off together that we did not spend yesterday together. Seth had planned a man day with his buddy from work. They were going to go to breakfast at IHOP and then off to see two movies...Terminator Salvation and Star Trek. (I've already see Star Trek with out him! hehe). I had appointments all day long. 11 o'clock was hair, 1 o'clock was makeup, and 6:30 was picture time!! We had no idea how everything was going to work out so we wanted plenty of time to be able to get ready for the pictures. But before Seth left for his man day he got a call from his chief. He thought they were trying to call him to come in on his day off BUT instead they called to tell him he made next rank!! I am SO SO SO SO SO SUPER EXCITED for him! I am so proud of him!! Honestly neither of us thought this would happen. I had prayed for him that day but when he got home he said their were alot of questions that he didn't know. Mainly about the boat of which I know he's in the navy but he's never been on a ship! But the Lord works in great ways! And he made next rank!!!! YEA!! He's been doing so good at work it's really awesome! The other awesome thing that Seth was recently selected for is called SRT, Security Reaction Team. He was asked to be in the primary team where if any disasters like Hurricane Katrina happen again then he will be shipped off to go and help. I am so proud of him! :D eks!!!! After the chief had called and talked to Seth I was like jumping around all over the house. Jumping on him! It was so exciting. Seth was the only one to advance to his new rank in all of security at his base. The only other one to advance in security with Seth was a guy who made 3rd class. Seth is now SECOND CLASS!! WOOHOOOO!! Out of the WHOLE ENTIRE Navy the number of people to advance to 2nd class (That'd be Seth now ;P) was only 8%. That is so awesome! So our day started out great! After that he left and me and my mom started getting things together for our big day. At 11 we went and got my hair done which turned out BEAUTIFUL!!! Then I went and got my makeup done by airbrush! Thats so cool! But it tickles me. hehe. Then me and my mom went and ate lunch at Jason's Deli and I had me a big ol' salad with some ice cream. :) Hey! I can't be ALL healthy. I have to add a little fat somewhere. Then since we had a little time to spare we hit up a couple stores to look for a little miscellanous wedding stuff. Which we found but were more expensive then what we wanted to pay for them. So we headed off to Las Colinas where we were going to meet up with the photographer. The photographer took about 2 hours shooting pictures! whew! And afterwards I was exhausted!!! I had ssssooo much fun! I was a little tense at first but then I started to loosen up. The photographer was so informative and made me feel so comfortable. He was telling us what he was looking for in the pictures not only with me but also explaining to us how he takes the pictures and what he looks for. We had alot of fun! Afterwards he gave us a few tips on the wedding and then we scurried off to get home. I really wanted to celebrate Seth's success but it was way to late! So me and my mom stopped by the grocery store and picked up Seth an oreo cookie cake and chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream (our favorite). We had fun! Celebrated! WOW! WHAT A DAY! It was an awesome and blessed day for both me and Seth!
