There’s 135 days left until I get married!!  There’s a few big things that need to be taken care of still but we’ve gotten quite a bit done, yay!

Things to do:

1. Talk to florist again/work out details/sign a florist contract
2. Book an appointment for a cake tasting/pick cake
3. Go to a tasting/finalize reception food
4. Decide on groom & groomsmen attire
5. Schedule a fitting once my dress comes in
6. Wait anxiously for another invitation proof & sign off on the order

+ some more little stuff.  There’s probably some big stuff not on this list but I’m not worried about anything right now.  It’s all coming together.

• There has been some talk of going on a hike this weekend.  Considering I don’t do that much hiking this will probably kick my butt, but it shall be fun!
• Hiking usually means a picnic lunch.  
• The sunshine is beautiful and the temperature is lovely.
• Our silverware arrived yesterday and I’m still over the moon about it.
• The magnolia tree is blooming outside my window.  That tree is the very reason I chose my bedroom.  It makes me smile.
• The weather is nice so walking outdoors is a must.
• Perhaps it’s time to bust out the ice-y machine?
• I have an approximate amount in mind for how many candles and gems I’ll need for our centerpieces which means I can start getting them at any time.  I have one bag of gems.
• It’s one day closer to the weekend.
• I had a breakfast sandwich made with leftover breakfast sausage & bacon.  I didn’t have to cook anything but an egg (and of course toast an english muffin).
• My robe is fluffy.
• I have about 20 pages left in my book which means I can start a new adventure in reading soon.
• There has been talks of going to see the Hunger Games with friends.  I will probably, if possible, see it with family beforehand or afterwards…depending on when we can tickets, lol.
• I just got a text from my future hubby that said “Hey you :)” 
• 90210 & Switched at Birth come on tonight
• One day closer to our wedding.  208 days, but who’s counting?  oh, that’s right…I am.  GO FASTER TIME!  

I cannot wait to take engagement photos with you.   

I cannot wait to walk down the aisle and say I do.

I cannot wait to party with our friends and family as they celebrate our love.

I cannot wait to wave goodbye to everyone at the end of the reception, and know that you and I will be leaving for our honeymoon.  It will be just you and I…and I cannot wait to selfishly have you all to myself.

I cannot wait to have new adventures with you.  

I cannot wait to look at homes in person whether they be apartments to rent, or homes to buy.  I already have a home in you, and I cannot wait to build a home with you.  Just us — in our own little place doing things our own little ways.

I cannot wait to crawl into bed with you every single night.  

I cannot wait to wake up and make us breakfast, lunch, and dinner. 

I cannot wait to hear or say “honey, I’m home!”

I cannot wait to decorate our place and make it our own.

I cannot wait for a lot of things (even the simplest thing like your toothbrush being next to mine in the holder), but I will because good things come to those who wait and you are most definitely worth the wait.  I love you honey.  

With love,

Your future wife 

• Try on bridesmaid dress at David’s Bridal because my beautiful twin is getting married on June 17, 2012.
• Finish buying ingredients for bite size pumpkin cheesecakes & bite size peanut butter & chocolate cheesecakes.
• Try and finish up Thanksgiving shopping so I do not have to go back out again (cross your fingers for me).
• Try and relax and read more of Kelley Armstrong’s The Summoning

/side note:  I am so excited that my boyfriend is going to be off from work Wednesday-Sunday.  YES!  This is going to kick major butt because last week he was on call and I didn’t really get to talk to him very much since he was so busy.  He had really weird hours and is still recovering from being sleep deprived.  Poor boo!

Tonight’s agenda consists of the following:

• Vampire Diaries at 8pm
• The Secret Circle at 9pm
• Nice hot relaxing bath or shower
• Calling my honey to chitchat before bed
• Sleep

Sounds pretty awesome doesn’t it?

Happy things:

• My teacher didn’t kill me for not having a thesis statement yet.
• I have breakfast plans, with friends, on Friday morning.
• The aforementioned breakfast is at Panera (‘nuff said).
• I’m buying tickets tomorrow for a Wanda Sykes comedy show.
• I have two classes tomorrow & then it’s the weekend.

So, I’m pretty much ready to watch Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 now.  I have completed all Harry Potter movie watching related tasks:

• Wear awesome Gryffindor Shirt ✓
• Wear HP jewelry (earrings/wrist cuff/necklace) ✓
• Watch Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 1 ✓
• Purchase movie snacks & drinks (screw the theater & their overpriced food) ✓
• Pack movie snacks & drinks ✓
• Pick up tickets ✓
• Hold myself together FAIL

Ah, well I guess 6/7 completed tasks isn’t too bad.  

• Make pudding pie
• Make fruit salad
• Grill with my boyfriend
• Hang out with boyfriend, family, and friends
• Swim (more than likely)
• Tan
