Oh, and did I mention the dress...

Bri is getting "married" in my mothers wedding dress from 1946.  It fits a little big, but the length is perfect.  The dress started out its life as my mom's prom dress, and when she was getting married they didn't have the money for a new dress, so a few alterations were made and it became her wedding dress.  It has lived the last half century crammed into a shoe box, just waiting for its stage debut!

I didn't know that story. Pretty neat.
