    Dreams do come true! I'm going to be a bridesmaid!

    So my good GG friend Kim is getting married next year. Last night she asked me if I was interested in being a bridesmaid. My jaw hit the floor. Lol. Its one of Rachels dreams to be a bridesmaid in a wedding and I am actually going to be able to do it. I am on cloud nine. How did I get so lucky? Now to wait a whole year!

    WOW, I think it's safe to say that's a major dream in many of our lives and you're getting to live it. Your's won't be the only jaw on the floor I bet

    I was going to say that's pretty incredible Rachel, but I think ducking awesome covers it perfectly. A dream come true then, lucky lady!

    This is actually a truth, as I normally like to look at the lighter side of life. It reminds me of my brother-in-law who always has tales of how he just missed out on something, but how great it would have been had he succeeded. After much rambling by me, basically, the stock phrase for him is always the bridesmaid and never the bride.

    Maybe you can accomplish both? Nice thought at least!

    Reminds of that old saw, "Always a bridesmaid, never a bride". However, I've portrayed the bride in a few shoots.

    Which doesn't hold a candle to being an actual bridesmaid, Rachel. Rock it! And remember, take LOTS of pics!
    U can't keep doing the same things over and over and expect to enjoy life to the max. When u try new things, even if they r out of your comfort zone, u may experience new excitement and growth that u never expected.

    Challenge yourself and pursue your passions! When your life clock runs out, you'll have few or NO REGRETS!

    I used to believe this, now I'm in the company of many tiggers. A tigger does not wonder why she is a tigger, she just is a tigger.

    Congratulations Rachel! Asking someone to be a Bridesmaid is pretty much the highest compliment one woman can give another!

    Lose any excess weight now and start saving up lots of money -- dresses, presents, and Bridal showers cost! Big time!

    There will be things to do in the months leading up to the Wedding so it won't be a matter of waiting a whole year.

    And you can't do the guy thing and wait 'til the last minute to get ready; finding, trying on, and altering your dress takes time! Could be up to a couple of months!

    It's a lot more than just standing there, so be ready! And enjoy!

    Hugs,
    Persephone.

    That's great, Rachel! I am envious as well.
    The closest I came was being a witness on behalf of the bride in a small civil ceremony, many years ago when I was still deep in the closet. That bride has since joked that I was her maid of honor. (if only)
