In honor of a family wedding coming up this weekend, I will explain a little inside joke that was derived from such an autocorrect incident. It is not on the dirty humor train the iphone sometimes is on, so don't get your hopes up.
My college-aged sister-in-law texted my future sister-in-law that this girl was "precious," but instead texted "preshrunken." They all assumed "preshrunken" was a cool, new college word that they must not know about. There were many guesses on what this new term might mean. Everyone had a good laugh when they learned it was just a mistake. Now, preshrunken is in our family vocabulary.
So, L will be a flower girl in the previously mentioned family wedding! She is 9.5 months now and the other flower girl is 8 weeks. Their dad's will be carrying them down the aisle...it will be so PRESHRUNKEN!!! I will definitely get a picture to share.
When we were trying to find flower girl dresses, we ran into some problems. They are all so mini-bridesmaidsy (just made that word up, but you know what I mean) and cost just as much as a bridesmaids dress. I called in the expert...Alex, from Things That Sparkle, keeps a fantastic blog featuring interiors, fashion, and a little bit of food.

Thank you Alex for these preshrunken dresses! I love them! Let me know which one you choose for your wedding!
Unfortunately, we did not have Alex's picks before we picked the dress. The Bride decided to keep it clean and simple with a white, smocked dress like the one below...
