Super Fun Stuff!!!
Okay, first of all I need to direct your attention to kool108.com, where I ask that you kindly click on their karaoke contest link, and vote for Princess Flickerfeather. I know, I should have done this earlier, because the last day to vote is Saturday. I'm sorry. Anyway, all of the karaoke contestants are listed in 2 columns, and you will find Casii Stephan about halfway down the right-hand column. She performed the song "Higher Ground" by Stevie Wonder. You can even watch the video of her performance here.

Please, please, PLEASE go and vote for her. And tell your friends.

Second of all, as many of you may know, I'm getting married next May.

Woohoo!!! Yeah, I know, it's pretty exciting.

So my bridesmaids and my mother and I went bridesmaid- and mother-of-the-bride- dress shopping. (Btw, isn't it awesome that "mother-of-the-bride" and "Minnesota organization of blogs" have the same acronym? My mom is the MOB in the MOB!) My cousin (the former queen of IGH who is now running for Winter Carnival) Lindsay works in a bridal salon, and decided to make the arrangements for our shopping event. She helped me decide which places to go, and made appointments for us to go there. I was very happy to let her take that over. My bridal peeps and I went to Bella Bridal, which is in the Woodbury Lakes mall, and David's Bridal, which is not far from it.
We had the most wonderful time...so enjoyable in fact, that for the most part we could not contain our laughter.

It started innocently enough...

See? We acted normal like anyone else who was in that shop! Then maybe we got a little silly...
