So recently we went by to take a look at our house.. AND..
It has the front veranda done and some front siding done.. not painted yet though.. this week they say they are going to be siding so we'll see what happens! Hurray for my beautiful bread box of a home! I love it!!

For the cerimony I wanted Bryan, Bishop Angivine and I to all stand on risers so everyone even in the back could see. Well good luck to us I couldn't find and risers, they were either to big or to small. So I figured we'd just make some. So Ranger Lee and I went away on woring on them. We used old 2x4's from the back of the shop.. which had a million nails in them.. So little old weak me spent forever trying to get the nails out of all the board. Finally we go to building it! It's not quite done yet, we have some more screws to screw in and put the top board on it. Then I've got some white fabric i'm going to staple on it.. then drape some pink around the edges... Hopefully it will turn out. Thanks Ranger Lee for helping.. or should I say.. Letting me help too!!

Packing!




This past weekend and almost every night Bryan and I have been slowly packing up some of our things we wont need for a bit. And piece by piece Bryan has been bringing stuff to my house and leaving it.

Everyday I've been getting more and more boxes.. I have allot of stuff I decided. I really don't know how both Bryan and I are going to be able to fit in one closet and one room... good thing in our house we'll have extra closet space.

But still my room is getting emptier and emptier is so sad. The fun part about packing is I get to go through all my old things that i've forgotten about. Bryan got to see all my fluffy, frilley dresses I've kept from when I was a kid, he wasnt very impressed with them.. I think they might be a little outdated.

It's funny how we all keep clothes from when we were younger that we loved thinking our kids could wear it when they're older. But then we go through it all 5-10 years later and realize our kids wouldnt ever wear it. but yet we still keep it. OR maybe that's just me, I guess I'm a bit of a pack rat! oops


But as sad as packing has been its been really fun!

WEDDING BELLS IN THE AIR!

So as you know the wedding is getting closer! Only 18 days away.. or 3 weeks. And I cannot wait. Recently I had my second last dress fitting, and I love my dress, I'm so happy I still love it. I had a really tough time trying to find a beautiful modest dress.. so I settled for one I only half loved.. and after seeing other dresses I wasnt sure if I'd love mine. But I was able to find someone to add some custom beading onto my dress. I was a little worried I must say cos I did want some embrodory along with beads and she wasnt able to do that without taking apart my whole dress.. So only beads it was. And it looks awesome, she should be done this week, then it will be hemed and good to go.
I wish I could post picture on here,... But you'll just have to wait to see..

So far all the planning and things are just about done.. the bills keep adding up.
I have my check list and it's still long but it's getting shorter...


I still really can't wait, I still can't believe I'm going to be married in 3 weeks.
