Friday the 10th marked 1 Year Until Our Wedding!! We ended up going out for dinner at Jack & Arnie's w/ Grant, Ryan, & Brandon (a friend of ours...not my brother...or Anna's boyfriend...God, there are a lot of Brandons!). So anyways, we grilled up some super yummy steaks & made some baked potatoes & texas toast! Yummmmmm! Way-> good! I want some right now!! We also had a few drinks & chilled! It was a good night!
The following Sat was our dress shopping day! We went to An Elegant Affair by Amy, Now & Forever Bridal, & Bridal Design. I found a few that I liked but none that really stood out from the others. We also found a few bridesmaid dresses that everyone seemed to like but, like my wedding gown, we didn't find anything that "stood out". We were going to check out A Bride's Corner in downtown Waterloo but after stuffing ourselves at Becks for lunch we were pretty sluggish & were too lazy to go to one more bridal shop. We had a good time though & it was nice to spend the day w/ all my girls!! (Quick Note: I was going to upload pics on to my The Knot blog but I'm having trouble. For some reason it doesn't want to work?? I'm going to try one more time & if it doesn't work I'll prolly just end up putting them on here. Stay tuned.....)

That night Nick, Anna, Anna's b/f Brandon, Chelsie, her b/f Mike, John, Willy, & I made our way to Evansdale to check out some haunts! We went to Harris Haven Funeral Home first & my radio station was there so I got to thank them for my Black Hawk season tickets! Anna & I got free t-shirts & our picture taken w/ the morning show DJs, JC & Chase! (I was hoping that they would put the picture up on their website but I haven't seen it. We were prolly to scary! ;) I had fun just watching people exiting the haunted house. There were 2 guys w/ chainsaws & if you ran from them they would chase you. So, we would all be hanging out & then all of a sudden you'd hear a chainsaw, then screaming, then you'd see someone running like hell across the field w/ the creepy chainsaw guy behind them! It was hilarious!! :D After Harris Haven we went to the Waterhawks Haunted Hayride. Nick, Anna, & I were the only ones that actually went on it. Everyone else just hung out in Nick's blazer. Big babies!!
(Anna, Willy, Chelsie, Brandon, John, & Mike all crammed in Nick's blazer!)
That Sun was a lazy day. Anna & I woke up late & just sat on our asses until about 5:00 when we finally took showers & got ready for the Five Finger Death Punch concert! Nick, Anna, & I rode w/ Jay & Lindsey the whole two minutes to Electric Park Ballroom. (I suggested we walk but then we wouldn't have had as much time to drink! Beer is good!) Another Black Day opened & then Bury Your Dead played. They were pretty cool but In This Moment was still my favorite!! I can't wait to go to a concert where they are the headliners!! Maria, the lead singer, has such an amazing voice! Plus, that girl can scream!! It's crazy!! I bought an In This Moment t-shirt so that I can represent!! (Hee Hee!) :P Five Finger Death Punch was last & I kinda liked them. The lead singer was pretty hot so even if they would have sucked at least there would have been something to look at! I wanted to hang around after the concert so that I could meet In This Moment again but Nick had to get up for work the next day so we left around 11:00. I took half a day off the next day so that I could sleep in! That was lovely!!
