Checking things off
This weekend I finally found my wedding dress!!!! Too bad I can’t share it with you all, but just know it’s a-ma-zing…
Friday I took mom out to lunch at our favorite sushi place: Blue C Sushi!
Friday evening, Mom and I met up with Steff to try on wedding dresses at Nordstrom. It was fun, but none of the dresses I tried were really show-stoppers. I was looking for something that would say: ‘hello, i’m the bride!’
We left empty-handed, but it was a great starting point, and left me feeling more sure about the style of dress that I wanted. I spent Friday night at Steff and Joe’s, and ate some pea soup that I made a few nights ago!
Saturday we had a 10am appointment to try on more wedding dresses. There were a few we liked, and then there was one…
that we BOUGHT!
We’re all in love with it, and it’s exactly the style I’ve been looking for.
We were famished after all the trying on of dresses (Steff tried on bridesmaid dresses and mom got her Mother-of-the-Bride dress!), so we stopped by Chipotle for an early lunch.

Mom and I left Steff to run errands, and we drove to Tacoma to go visit my grandma. My grandma recently fell and injured herself (nothing too serious, just a bruise) so my mom wanted to stop by and make sure she was recovering well. We took her out for lunch!
Obviously I couldn’t eat anything since I had just stuffed my face eaten lunch…

Killing time on the drive back to Steff’s place
Best dinner before a long run the next morning?
Indian food…
Sunday morning I was up around 7:30 to eat breakfast and have enough time to digest before our 13+ mile run.
Um, it was cold this morning. Seriously cold. I wore capris with 2 long-sleeve shirts AND a North Face light jacket and was still cold at certain points!
The first 6+ miles of the run were pretty warm, then we ran down a super long and steep hill and the temperature dropped. It stayed pretty cold until mile 11, then things started to warm up, and the sun came out!
13.2 miles = 1:57
Not bad considering this week’s workouts have been blah…
Steff and I went out to Chipotle (again) for lunch
Can’t get enough of those chips! They have an amazing combo of lemon/lime juice and sea salt…best paired with guacamole.
We had a few errands to run in the afternoon, so I managed to pick up a few last minute things before I leave to head back to China on Wednesday!
I also picked out colors for the wedding…
Navy blue and daffodil/golden yellow.
