Dressing the MEN!

What a relaxing Thanksgiving weekend in our household!

I was a bit cranky in Seattle since we were not to be able to spend the holiday with our family back in Mass BUT we definitely made the best of it, enjoying a LOT of down time from the madness of our lives!

We went to a friends house for a lovely Prime Rib dinner on Turkey Day. Yah no Turkey was had here! 

We walked Russ a bunch, hit up the gym a few times, ate Chinese and swung by Mens Wearhouse to pick out Eddie's and the Groomsmen's tux! 

Hey, at least we got one thing accomplished this weekend!

Check out my fine man..

OK a few things... We decided on Men's Wearhouse because they make it SO easy for the men, since there are literally a bagilion stores around the country and they are REALLY affordable. BUTT the whole experience with the picking of the tux and accessories wasn't all that great. First off they don't have any Tux's for you to try on nor do they have any of the other rental pieces so it is extremely hard to get a good visual. I did also feel like they were pushing buying suits rather than renting tux's. I knew what I liked going into the appointment so I was getting very frustrated when I was trying to be lead into a different direction. 

I love our final decision which is similar to the above picture of Eddie. He's wearing a similar suit to what the Tux will look like with an ivory shirt, black tie, and charcoal vest. The Groomsmen will wear everything the same as Eddie but with a black vest.  

BAM! another check off our to-do list!
