5 weeks and 2 days!

So I get married soon!!! I'm so excited. I got my bridals done last weekend and I will post a few here. I'm so happy with them! Lindsey's pretty much amazing. I can't believe how they turned out, so good. I think I get to move next week. I really hope so. I'm gonna start packing this weekend either way. I hate packing. Remember how I get married in 5 weeks and 2 days... HELLS YES!! :) That's all.

Wedding Planning Visit Home

So I went home Wednesday night! It was nice. I was able to stay 3 whole days then had to leave again. I got lots done. I had an appointment with my mom and the wedding photographer. She and her husband are awesome people! Then mom and I went to register at Target. Sorry, the list is boring, I'll see what I can do about that.
Then the next day, we went and got pedicures. Richard said he'd go if I paid for his, not gonna happen. So it was just mom and I. Then we met Steysi and Jack for lunch. He is the cutest kid! Then mom and I got spray tans. We were practicing cause I want to get one before the wedding. I wanted to see how long it would last and what I needed to do not be orange and stuff. It looks pretty good.
Then on Saturday, Mom and I went to grandma and grandpa's house. We visited them and Steysi & Travis. It was so much fun. I enjoy all of them so much. Then we went back home and set up some wedding decorations to see if they'd work. Then we had to wait to Richard to get home because we were all going to Cattlemens. AWESOME!! Favorite food ever. On the way down to Rocklin, we listened to Les Miserables. Good music, good company, good food then a mall trip. :) Wow that mall is getting big and I can't believe the stores they have there. I can't afford to shop there, but we did need to go to Fredricks of Hollywood so I could buy a friend some lingerie.
It was sad when I had to leave. I miss my family, and my parents house is my favorite. Well, the house is great, but the location is the best. Grass valley has the freshest smell and good climate and everything. Trees galore. I love it.

Engagement Pictures

We went and got our engagement pictures done. They look so good! I'm so happy. Lindsey did an amazing job and it was so much fun! I was very happy with how Cody did, he didn't complain about it being cheesy or anything. He did so good :) I'll put my favorite pictures on here but there are more on Lindsey's blog aandlphoto.blogspot.com so check that out if you want. I have my Bridals next Monday and I'm excited about that too!

Horrible Blogger

I know I'm bad at this. Nothing is happening or I would've updated. Promise. I am getting my engagements done on Friday! I'm excited. After that's done, we can finally get our announcements done then I can send those out. Then it's like this wedding thing is really happening. Yes! So Lindsey is doing the pictures and Chan is coming, it's gonna be so fun. Oh if anyone is reading this, you should check out her photo blog. http://aandlphoto.blogspot.com/ I think she's awesome. She'll be doing my bridals too.

Speaking of bridals, I have my next fitting on Monday! Maybe it'll be done :) That'd be cool. Oh and I'm going home in a couple weeks! I'll be home in 2 weeks from today! I'm so excited to go home. Mom and I will finish up our wedding planning and make sure everything is in order. Happy Day. Now all I need to do is find a place to live. Cody and I are working on it, but it sure is frustrating. Oh well, thus is life. We'll figure it out.

I'm trying to exercise more too, you know- lose weight for the big day. It doesn't seem to matter how I eat or how much I exercise, nothing happens. Any suggestions?? It's super irritating. Wish I was a guy sometimes, it seems easier for them. But I am glad I'm a girl, I prefer to look like me naked than a guy. Not mean, just honest :) The end, til next time.

Wedding Shopping

So my Mom bought my wedding dress today! I officially have it and my veil and shoes. I'm done! Well with my wedding clothes anyway. I got matching shoes and we found them in the first shoe place we walked into. It was meant to be. After that, we went to get mom her mother of the bride dress. We went to Nordstroms and looked but didn't find any dresses in the right color. Then we were on our way to Macy's and passed the Dress Barn.The first dress she tried on was it. It's a jewel toned deep purple and it's perfect. It is a great dress and it was super cheap. Good all around. Also in the shopping we went to Maurices and got a few shirts a piece and the same pair of awesome red shoes. We each got the same 2 shirts (and one different) and the same shoes. Twins. We also went to look for a temple dress and all of them were ugly. Didn't see a single normal one, all ugly. Oh well. I can look later. I have a few months.

After the shopping, we drove to Park City. Here I sit in the hotel room watching American Idol, now Bones, on my new laptop with my parents. Life is good. Oh so I got my new laptop last night and I was able to update my ipod for the first time in over 8 months. Happy Day!!!

Past the Holidays

Ok so I'm told I haven't updated my blog since Thanksgiving and it was a surprise! I guess I haven't. Here goes...

The Holidays came and went. Too quickly. It was so great to go home for a week and half and hang out with my family (minus Heather, Adam and Hunter). I was really sad to leave, especially to come back to Utah with snow and temps just over -3. Yes I mean -2. It's been cold.

Now I'm just concentrating on Wedding Planning. I'm almost done, just need a photographer I think. I did get my dress! Well I found it, I'm waiting for mom to come to buy it. She's coming in 2 weeks and it's taking so freaking long! January was the longest freaking month. It dragged like no other. I just want to see my parents and February can't come any slower than it has been. It's been very frustrating!

My honeymoon is booked and I'm just planning things to do while we're in South Lake Tahoe. I'm excited. I can't wait to get married. Cody's talking about it all reasonable, like he believes it's actually gonna happen and he'll have to be part of it. It's so refreshing after all the no cooperation I was getting :). I'll post pictures of my wedding dress whenever I get my bridals done. I'm so excited! did I mention that?

Thanksgiving!!

I know its been a loooong time! Sorry! Here we go. I got a new nephew and he's adorable, as seen in previous pictures. I have more. I also have some of vacation to Newport, OR with my fam and Cody. It was sooooo much fun! We didn't do a whole lot, the weather was cold and snowy. We went shopping, the boys went golfing, ate food, played Halo with eachother and strangers live, ate Thanksgiving Dinner!, went shopping more, played football on the beach, frisbee, walking on the beach, laid around. You know, vacation. I love being with my family the few weeks a year that I get to. Oh and I think we have a wedding date! Tentatively June 4. Details to follow. Woohoo! I'm excited much. Here are some pictures for you!
