1st Engagement Party of 2011!
It seems like everyoneeeee is getting married, engage,d or having babies! And i’m totally okay that i’m not one of those people! Yes i may be envious of those people at times. But i’m kind of glad it’s not me. I’m a crazy, wild, hard to settle down girl. I know that future man of mine, is going to be quite the catch! He’s gonna have his hands full, “wrasssslin” a girl like me
I’m so excited for my friend Erika, and her fiancee Michael. They’re so cute. Erika and i have been friends for almost 6 years, and we’ve been through a lot in our friendship. The good times of being single, the downs of having her heart completely broken in relationships, her moving 3 hours away to start Grad School, her finding Michael, and being really excited, and her getting engaged!!!!!!! I’m more than excited andhonored to be a part of their big day on October 1st!
Yesterday was there Engagement Party at Chicot State Park! We had soooo much fun

What a great day
Can’t wait for the big day! But i do have some work to do weight loss and health wise! It’s time to get serious
I just felt soooo big next to the bride and the other bridesmaids. Like it really made me upset and sad, but hey. All i can do is take one day at a time, and try and change myself. No sense in beating myself up about it!

Thanks Cait! I had a wonderful time
I love parties!
Hey Britt, I know exactly how you feel about being the biggest bridesmaid. I have definitely been there.
Now I am in a whole new situation, I just recently got engaged! So now, while I am not where I wish I were, I am going to work on looking the best I can for my wedding next year. But I am not going to get upset if I’m not exactly where I want to ultimately be.
Remember your friend wants you in her wedding regardless of her weight because you are important to her.

Thanks ma’am! I’m accepting me and working on loving me!
Aww, Britt… I’m so sorry you felt that way. Don’t forget how far you’ve come and how strong you’ve become in the process. You are beautiful inside and out, and your friends (real-life and blog) know and love you for it!!

You are lovely the way you are. I will support you every step of the way. Love you friend! More importantly… God loves you!!!! And God told me to tell you to put these pics on facebook for me
Thank you friend
I love you too! And i’m so excited to be a part of your big day! And i’m honored
Looks like a wonderful time! I know what you mean though.. seems like everyone I know is having a baby or buying a house! I’m just excited for my husband to get done with school – gosh! Hugs to you!

aww thank you, Katie! You’re awesome! hugs to you too! And hug fest will be happening soon!
I’m sorry you felt down on yourself like that, Britt, but you truly are a beautiful girl! Being the biggest or the smallest doesn’t mean “prettiest” or “ugliest” or “better” or “worse” I just think you’re awesome and gorgeous! Love yourself!

thank you Colleen! I’m working one day at a time on loving me and accepting me! It’s not the easiest thing to do, that’s for sure! But thanks for the much needed love today
It’s truly a struggle – no matter your size! You’ve got the perfect attitude!
Thanks ma’am! I try and keep a positive attitude, it does not sense in being grumpy about things i have no control over!
now a follower here too

Yay Allie! Welcome to my blog!
Congratulations to your friends! It looks like it was a beautiful party!
I can relate to your feelings because at the time my best friend got married I was at my heaviest but I put those feelings aside for her day. Bottom line you a fantastic girl, your friend chose you as a bridesmaid because she knows your heart and love you…in the end that’s all that matters!
