Lingerie shopping with my soon to be mother in law

This is going to be incredibly awkward. Okay, so about a month ago, Matthews mom calls. When Matt answered the phone she said that she wanted to talk to me not him...he asked why do you want to talk to her a few times until she finally told him. The expressions on his face made me so curious, so when I got on the phone he stood there to wait for my expression. I'm listening to her and waiting for the punchline. So, she say, "I was thinking that it would be fun to go to Bakersfield, just us two, and have lunch and do some shopping..." I said, "that sounds like fun, whats weird about that?" Then she finishes her thought with, "I wanted to buy your lingerie for your guys' honeymoon." Okay, so now my jaw has unhinged. LOL. Let me describe Debbie to you...she is the sweetest, most naive, religious, lady I know. She teaches special ed kids at Kernville School. She is very "PURE" I guess you could say. Its hard to give you the exact picture, but that's the best I can describe, so you can imagine what I'm thinking when she is telling me this. Haha! So, I said, "Isn't this going to be kinda weird? I mean, I'm going to be wearing this on our honeymoon...for your son..." She says, "Well, I don't think so, I wore lingerie too, I wouldn't anymore because my husband would die from a hernia from laughing so hard. haha. But I think it would be fun." So, I agreed, and we scheduled this play date for Saturday, January 10th...TODAY! Yesterday, she called and said that someone told her not to shop at Victoria Secret because its over priced that we should go to Fredricks...so I tried to explain to her that Fredricks is a little more ronchier then Victoria's too. I prefer Fredricks, but its less conservative too. I'm kind of nervous now...Its going to be fun, don't get me wrong...I'm hoping it wont be too weird, but what if she finds something....how should I say, not so conservative??? She picks up crotchless panties and says I think these are torn and defective and I say no they are supposed to be like that...they are for easy access. LMAO. So, that's my excitement for today. I will be sure to tell you all how it turns out. We are going to go to Panda Express which is freaking awesome and so some other shopping. I'm going to see if I can find M.A.C. make-up and look at bachelorett stuff while we are there, so that should be fun.
So, I am back from shopping. Had a lot of fun and spent good quality time with Debbie which was really nice. We talked and shopped a lot. The lingerie shopping was awkward as expected, but it didn't last long because I'm pretty quick at shopping. I'm not much for browsing for one thing for very long, I usually find what I want pretty quickly. So, we went to Macy's and I found M.A.C. make up. Super excited about that. There were a lot of sales going on so we found really good deals on everything. Then I got my ring cleaned...its ridiculously shiny again and I'm almost afraid to wear it before the wedding, lol, don't want it to get dull again. We had dropped off my dress and Jens dress with Davids Bridal and once again they piss me off. They really should work on their customer service skills. They spot clean and steam the dresses in the store yet they still think that they need to keep the dresses for 2 weeks just for that. Im annoyed at them for that, I don't trust them with my dress for 2 weeks, but whatever. So, we have to go back to Bakersfield Thursday to pick up Matthews tux and my dresses. I think Im going to have them clean my ring again real quick so it will look just as beautiful on the wedding day as it does right now. Then we went to Panda Express, it was delicious as always. That was my day. YAY! 2 WEEKS TO GO!
