The License

Today we are heading to the country clerks office to get "THE LICENSE". I think that it is going to cause this to set in and seem real. Not only that I have set up a meeting to meet with Dancin' Dave a week from today. How can this all be happening? How can it be 10 days away. I know I say everyday, "how can it be one day less than yesterday already?" I just don't know......

I talked to Mike my Minister last night. He asked how I was doing and I told him good. He didn't' seem too shocked but he kept asking me. Are you sure you are ok? I said "yes, it sounds like you don't believe me Mike." He classified me as an anal bride who has most everything done and is just "waiting for the day". Most ppl would probably view that analness as a negative. But hey I feel good about it.

A Year and a Half Ago Today........

It was one year and a half ago this evening Josh asked me to marry him. When he threw caution into the wind and began his slow castration(my step-dad's theory on marriage). I cannot believe it! Where has the time gone. When we got engaged and set a date it seemed like forever until we would become man and wife. Not the date is 11 count them 1, 2, 3.....11 days away. Part of me wants the time back, we would have saved money better, I would have not stressed out over a date change, I would have changed a few things. But, the other half wants it to be Oct 24th. That is the part that is ready to be done with this planning mess. The part that doesn't want to start to lose sleep at night over small details. That is the part hoping that we remember everything that needs to be remembered. The part that wants to put on her big ivory dress everyday. The part that wants to finally get my Wal-Mart discount!!!!

I am just hoping that everything goes well. I know that something will go wrong. You plan, and trust the vendors you have hired. I know it is just what the day will be. If it was meant to rain it will rain. If it was meant to be 80 it will be 80. The important thing is that Josh and I end up as man and wife.

I Love Josh more than life itself. I am so honored that he asked me to be his wife. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I cannot wait to love him the rest of my life, or for the next 10 years as my brother predicted our marriage would only last that long.....

Happy Birthday!!!!

I want to wish some very special people a happy birthday! My beautiful, fun and sweet Aunts turn another year older today. My mother was lucky enough to be blessed with twin sisters. All her life my mother wanted a sister. After being stuck with 4 brothers my grandmother had one more chance and giving my mother a sister. What luck she got two!!! I know that you read, so I wish you the happiest of birthdays!!

My Aunts share their special day with 2 VERY handsome gentlemen. So I would also like to extend a Happy Birthday to Brett Favre and Dale Earnhardt Jr.

That Sucks!

I received a call from my future mother-in-law last night. It is official Josh's brother Ben won't be able to make it home for the wedding. I am really bummed. We were prepared for this but we were hopeful that he would be able to make it. It is also official that my grandparents in Florida will not be able to make it either. My poor grandmother is suffering from back pain and will have to have surgery this fall. Also, they were hit by both Frances and Jeanne. So, yes I am pretty bummed out about this, but you have to roll with the punches. I am just happy of the people that we have traveling distances to spend the day with us!!!

Wedding Bell Blahs..............

I know that I have not been a diligent blogger and I am sorry. My goal was to tell you about the bachelorette party and stuff but ran out of ambition. Last week I was sick, had to help my girlfriend with her wedding, she got married...to clarify. I don't even have the ambition to tell you about the whole weekend. I am so tired....... I have no ambition to do anything but wedding stuff. You should see my house you can tell that. I just want to sleep..... That is one thing that I am NOT having a problem with yet is sleep.

Don't be worried. I am ok, just blah..... Need a central line of caffeine.....
