22 days :)

HOLY COW! We get married in....
22 DAYS! 

How crazy is that?! Honestly, I'm at the point where I can't wait for this stress to be over with :) When I was little, I used to think the idea of being a wedding planner would be amazing..... it's not. Haha :) glad i figured that one out before i decided to pursue a career in it! 
Anyways... I haven't blogged in a while. I have been SOOO busy! I found a few minutes of free time today after i got done stuffing 400 envelopes for invitations! (actually, i really should be doing other wedding stuff... but im avoiding it at the moment ha) 
Let's see... I'm trying to think of all the things we have gotten done lately! 
we got our cute groomals taken! I pictured it being so magical and all that jazz... it didn't turn out that way ha. We had them done up at snowbasin. We had planned to change into my dress and his tux in one of the big lodges that they have up there... when we got there, they were all locked! SO... we changed in the parking lot. Yes, out in the open for everyone to see. My mom did her best to try and cover me with a blanket as she was helping me slip the dress over my head, trying not to mess my hair up. Let's just say it wasn't working... so Po had to help her! I was so upset about this :( i wanted to see his "first look" and have the photographer capture that moment of the first time he sees me in my dress, all done up! That didn't happen unfortunately... but what can ya do i guess... OH! did i mention it was 40 degrees and extremely windy?! as you all may know.. wind is not good for pictures! especially for the hair... my hair was flying all over the place after i had just gotten it done... let's just say i was a little frustrated at the whole situation. I also hiked a mountain in my wedding dress and flip flops. it was rough. We were there for three hours and by the last hour i literally could not move my fingers. my skin was turning purple and i had to thaw out in the car before we could take anymore because i was getting to the point of being miserable. Everyone was very helpful tho and put blankets and jackets on me when pictures weren't being taken and po kept giving me bear hugs which helped a ton! I'll be done complaining now....
Here is a little sneak peek on how some of them turned out! 


You guys will have to wait til' the wedding to see the full dress :)

I also had two bridal showers! One thrown by my sister in law, KayLee for my side of the family... and one thrown by my two aunt (in laws?) to be :) for his side of the family! I got sooooo much stuff! and i love it all ! I'm so grateful for good family and friends that spoil us during this time! we are really blessed :) I have my last bridal shower coming up this saturday that my friends are throwing for me and I can't wait! 

hmmmm.... oh! we went fishing last sunday :) with our favorite cousins brayden and alex! It was a much needed day of relaxation... even tho after four hours of being there we went home with no fish! dang it! Po and brayden both caught one but they got away! 



I have most of the wedding stuff done! The only things i have left to do are make a few cute signs, finish our wedding playlist, get the ring ceremony together, and send out invites (this weekend)! 
We get our endowments together on June 9th! Cant wait :)
