'Yes' to the Dress

 

Look at the corn! 

Jonathan said the leaves (leaves?) are pretty sharp. He lost an arrow in the field and tried to find it. 

Lanaya Elizabeth came home for the weekend so we could go wedding dress shopping!

Phoebe curled her hair with tight little curls. She kept it up mostly because it was so frizzy.

But it's pretty adorable down. It reminds me of the girl in Encanto.

We girls (Mimi, Phoebe, Lanaya Liz and I) went out to eat at The Brick Oven in Hannibal. We shared a large salad, a small Garlic Lover's Pizza, a small Margherita Pizza, and a chocolate lava cake.

And then away to 8th Ave Villager in Quincy to look for a wedding dress. 

We waited on the couch while Lanaya Liz tried on all the dresses. I got pictures of each dress so we could look at them side by side. 

After about a dozen changes and wrangling some sleeves off of one dress and onto the other, she found one! 

Then we went to a new coffee shop to end our day. 

Lanaya Elizabeth has been working on socks while she's been home with us.

My girls and I.

Mimi and the girls.

This was Phoebe after we got home. She was dead. 

It was pretty tiring, but I'm so glad we found a dress in one day!

On the way to church. 

We were almost all together. Jonathan had to drive separate since he had to be there early for greeting.

Out at the Junction for Sunday lunch.

The Fourth of July was pretty quiet. 

We had lunch together with Mimi and Papa, and then we just watched fireworks from our front porch.
