Finished our Annoucements

I am not sure what the final count ended up being but I somehow pulled the last 20 our of no where tonight! Anyway they are done, this is a scanned image of one, I played with the color but I got tired and didn't fix the names on the scanned copy (the invites look normal lol)... Arizona's and random states went out Tuesday I think and we are holding onto Utah ones for a little while longer...

My Wedding Dress is Almost finished!

Update

I am way to busy for my own good...

Lately I have:

1) Been planning our wedding
2) Making invitations
3) Being sick
4) Losing things
5) Skipping work due to illness, stress, anxiety, looming death
6) Trying to do one Spring class
7) Painting in my spare time (pottery, canvas)
8) Scrapbooking

Ok I totally don't have time for those last two but I really enjoy doing them.

Anyway I need to get my new debit card, I need to organize my wedding budget, I need to organize my personal budget...

This is hardly a new post... but simply a check list of things I need to or do not need to do!

Things not to do: Do NOT do other crap that distracts me from a) School b) Work or c) Wedding... (all though I like to do those three things in the order of Wedding, Work, School

39 more FREAKING DAYS then I get a vacation, and I get married, and then I turn 22!!!!

Engagement Photos

Here is a very very brief sample of some of our engagement photos... We took about a million and ended up with close to 100 fantastic shots! These are just some I quickly pulled out, not even including all of my favorites!

Wedding Planning

Yay for wedding planning. Today I got the chance to run a bunch of errands... We got:

1) The food ordered
2) The cake ordered
3) The flowers for the cake topper ordered
4) Took a swatch of red fabric to the florist for Gerbera Daisies
5) Met with Kirsten at the Secret Garden and planned out the reception layout as well as the wedding layout.
6) Got some fabric like Allyson had for her food table to use on ours because it was so cute!

Hair color

Dyed my hair before engagement photos this weekend... Its a little darker than I thought it would be but I like it. YA

Spring Classes

Although they are only approximately 7 weeks they are especially hard (for me) because it means I am sitting in class till almost 8:30 on Tuesday and Thursday.

Today was especially hard after slamming my head (accidentally) into a door. It hurt a lot. It was very loud. My manager that I don't like was sitting about 15 feet away in his cubicle and failed to acknowledge or ask what the very loud crash was. I picked my self up, got through the door and doubled over in the hallway in pain. It was fun.

ARIZONA in 4 days!!!

I am so excited to go home on Friday because I get to:

1) See my family!
2) Meet adorable JACE!
3) Go to Allyson and Jons FABULOUS wedding!
4) Get my and Daniels Engagement photos taken by the amazing Kate Lane!
5) See my friends and extended family!
6) Meet with Cake Lady, Flower Lady, and Caterer!
7) See my dog!
8) Sleep in my bed!
9) HAVE BAHAMA BUCKS (Seriously my favorite thing ever is there kalua coffee shaved ice... I will probably be getting it daily!)
10) We get to fly on a plane and NOT drive 10 hours!
11) Dan gets to have in and out... not that exciting for me but he is super excited about it.

PS I love Daniel

As a counter act of the last post I think it would be good for me to talk about the blessings in my life (just to name a few):

1) I have an amazing and strong mother who has done so much for me and my brothers.

2) I am marrying my best friend who loves me, trusts me, lifts me up, makes me better, and so much more.

3) I have a very giving father who has been so good to me despite my often expressions of stress and bratty behavior.

4) I am marrying into an amazing family. I could not be more blessed that Dan's parents and siblings are honest genuine interesting and loving people!

5) I am so lucky my brothers have decided to be with AMAZING women! My sister in laws (and Kirsten!) have been such helps to me and I appreciate them so much. Its also so nice to have girls to talk to my wedding stuff about and help out so much!

6) I have amazing friends! New and old! I have gotten a great opportunity to live with an old roommate and co worker Mary before I get married these last 2 months and she is fantastic! Also all of my friends I have known for most of my life who are so supportive and sweet to me!

7) I get to graduate from BYU in less than a year!

8) I have a loving and understanding bishop as well as great professors who did not hold it against me that I could not attend school for the first month of the semester!

9) Finally I am thankful for my sight and my health. After what happened to me at the end of last year/start of this year I have been faced with some very scary health issues that at one point left me in the blurry cross eyed dark. I am doing better and have regained my sight and hope for continued health!
