25 Days

Today I find myself really missing Bud and wishing he was here to witness of this excitement that is going on. He would have truly loved to have been a part of my wedding and I know he would have adored Danny. If for no other reason than Danny loves me. It is really hard to think about him not being there on that day. I have a great step-dad and dad that will be there, but I just feel like Bud should have been there. There will be a special section of our program for those that can't be with us on the day, but I wish there was something else different I could do for him.

suggestions are welcome!

Other than that....life is good. Unemployment is definitely helping with the wedding stress. I have plenty of time to talk to all the vendors and get all the details finalized. Its also really nice to spend some quality time with the fiance. We are making a day trip to San Marcus tomorrow. I'm pretty excited about it. We are going to buy some things for the house and hopefully a few things just for us also! :)

Thats all I have for now.

So I am no good at updating this thing! So much has happened since the last post and I dont even feel like it was that long ago.

welp, to sum it up, I'm no longer employed and currently looking for a job. I was laid off about a week and a half ago. It is a blessing and a curse. I miss all of my friends at the office, but this is also allowing for plenty of time to get some other things done for the wedding.

For example, today Danny and I did wedding bands. I got all kinds of giddy when I saw that ring on his finger. It made me so happy. What else is left. I have emailed our lady for the programs and I'm still working on the "To our friends and family" section. I'm open to suggestions if you have any.

All the girls have their dresses and the parties have now started. 2 showers down! These things are so much fun. It is so exciting to be able to spend this absolutely amazing time in my life with so many people I love and care about. I've also had my best girls with me along the way. These girls are absolutely perfect! I couldn't have asked for a better group and they continue to make my life better and easier on a regular basis. This weekend is the bridesmaids luncheon. I get to give the ladies their gifts and just spend some quality time together. We are going to Rise in Dallas which is an absolutely AMAZING restaurant. the dessert was like strawberry air! heaven right here on earth.

I am doing my very best to take all of these moments in and enjoy every last bit of it. I'm enjoying everything that is happening but I want to make sure that I remember all that I can. I know that the wedding day will be a blur but I'm hoping if I make an effort to soak it up that I'll remember it. I'm most excited about our final dance of the evening. I think it is going to be absolutely romantic. Everyone will be out there waiting for us to make our exit and we will have a last dance in the empty room. Doesn't that just sound amazing? I love the idea.

Ok....until next time and hopefully it is before the wedding. haha!
