Jul. 10th, 2009 10:34 pmShort post because I am super sleepy.
Woke up early to pack and panic. Noname thought she was coming with us and was very sad when I left her home.
Flew to NY without any problems. Got slightly lost in JFK airport until we figured out you need to take the train to get to the rental cars.
Got my "one bad thing" for the trip out of the way by forgetting my backpack full of electronics and important papers on a bench at the car rental bus stop. The shuttle driver went back and actually found it!!! I made sure to mention to as many people who seemed to be in charge that the shuttle person was my hero. Hopefully they give her something nice for saving the day.
After we got our rental car, we checked into the hotel. I am surprised by how nice the room is. This was one of the cheaper hotels we could find. We have a king sized bed, a couch with foot cushions, a mini fridge, a microwave, free internet, and free breakfast. And it's near all the stuff we have to deal with on this trip. I should make ben handle the hotel on all our trips.
I grabbed a quick lunch then raced down to meet up with ally and get my makeup trial done. Tara was there too! I was glad cause she helped me be less indecisive. Ally did a good job of making sure the make up didn't feel too massively heavy on my face. I was definitely aware of it there all afternoon, but it wasn't suffocating my skin.
I got to wear my makeup to my engagement photo session which was right after. I hope it looks good in the pictures.
Our photographer took us to a beach my parents often go to. He took many many pictures, but seemed to be having a lot of fun. He took one of my must-have pictures right at the beginning without me asking, so that pleased me.
It was a lot easier for me to smile naturally than I expected. Probably because ben was with me. I hope our pictures come out nice.
Then to test the waters of the angry mother, I called about my dress. She wants to come to the fitting tomorrow (doom!) so she's going to bring it. She fed us an awkward dinner instead. I ate corn.
I think I need sleep now. This entry was not as short as I had planned. I need to rest for another long stressful day!
