One Month! One Month!

Well, I tried to get Casey to hold up our "Love Chain" so I could post a picture of how short it's getting, but he refused, because he was the one that posed with the chain for the last picture. Hopefully I'll get a recent picture of it up here in the next couple of days. We are down to 31 days! One month from today! This month is going to FLY BY! There is already so much going on in the next month, PLUS wedding stuff on top of that, it's going to be here before we know it! I can't believe it! It still doesn't feel real...

Bridals Are In!

Bridals are all done and I got the pictures back! It was really fun, because I had a whole entourage with me! My mom, sister, family friend, cousin and Grandma were all there with me and it was a lot of fun! The weather turned out to be so wonderful, because we had been told there was a chance of a storm. It was a little cold and windy, and in some of my pictures my nose is really red and my eyes are watering. It makes me look very emotional... haha :]

Casey went up with me (to Heber) because we were heading to my family's cabin in Wanship as soon as we got done. He was okay with going because he planned to stay at my Grandma's house and watch the BYU game while I went to take pictures. Wellll..... when we got there, we found out that Grandma and Grandpa didn't get the channel the game was on. I think he honestly thought he was going to die. He was so bummed and I felt so bad! He ended up listening to the game on KSL and watched a cooking show on Food Network at the same time. Very productive couple of hours for him! Haha :] Love him!

We were able to take pictures at the Welch's house in Heber. They have a BEAUTIFUL backyard, and there were so many places to take pictures.
Here are just a few...

Bridals Tomorrow!

I'm going to get my Bridal's done tomorrow and apparently I'm really nervous about... or something. I had a dream last night that the photographer wouldn't let me wear my own dress because it didn't go along with the theme she had decided on for me. She made me wear a dress that I hated. It was ugly and torn and didn't fit and it was really dirty. Casey was also there with me and he was pretty upset that this lady wouldn't let me wear what I wanted. The place she had chosen to take the pictures at was an old run down swimming pool outside in the middle of the mountains somewhere. There were gross things floating in it, and there was a ton of scrap metal all over the bottom of it, and she wanted pictures of me, in my gross dress, diving in to this sick pool.

It was the weirdest dream. I get those from time-to-time when I'm feeling a little stressed. Apparently now is one of those times. I'm sure it will be just fine though! I'll post the pictures when I get them :]

Love to all!

Wedding Planning Craziness!

I can't believe how much goes in to planning a wedding! It's crazy! Luckily there have been a ton of people helping out and giving opinions and advice and it's all been super fabulous and helpful!

My momma, Lisa, sister Kaitlin, and her best friend Kjalla (pronounced Shayla) are getting in to town tonight! Mom's going to be here to help get wedding things taken care of, and to be able to be here so we can do the whole "wedding planning" thing together (since that's what moms and daughters do, right?!). I'm really excited for them all to be here! It's going to be awesome to have them close by for a bit :]

Things are coming along smoothly for the most part. Mom has actually done most of it on her own, she'll just tell me what I need to do and when. It's been wonderful because I don't know a single thing about planning a whole wedding. Mom is doing a fantastic job though, especially for it being her first time (other than her own wedding, of course).

I've got bridal's this saturday which should be fun. I love wearing my wedding dress, so I'm excited to be able to wear it, even if I hate having pictures taken of myself :] I hope they pictures turn out okay! I get nervous, but I'm sure they'll be fine!

Thanks again to everyone for all the help with everything thus far! My family is awesome and I'm lucky to be marrying into a family that is equally wonderful!

Love to all
xoxo
