Double Digits!

SHUT UP! I receive tons of junk mail in my email right now because of all the things I'm subscribed to.. but I totally let it sit in there in case, by chance, I ever have a free minute to check them out. So the Knot.com has just sent my an email stating that I have 97 days left until my wedding...





Ladies and Gents.. we have officially hit double digits. That is CRAZY! I have not done any wedding planning items these past few weeks because of all my family drama and my little brother. So I have to jump back on the bandwagon.. like now.



These are the things we've accomplished thus far:


* Save the Date cards were sent out


* Invitations were ordered and have arrived.. just not assembled yet.


* Ordered cameras to place on table and they arrive.


(also, ordered a cute hat that says bride lol)


* Venue/ food/ceremony spot is picked out and reserved


*I'm stretching for more.... uummmm... My nonni is adding wonderful things to my dress and it is finally coming along. I CANNOT wait to see it finished. It's seriously going to be stunning.


*We have a pastor reserved.. my daddy :)


* I'm asking Pastor Greg Terry tomorrow if he can assist so my dad can walk me down the asile.


*Had two sets of engagement pics taken. Second one was yesterday and we'll see how those pics came out.. but I enjoyed the photographer A LOT!





And that's the list folks, lol. I think I may have a girls lunch in the next few weekends to just get everyone who has offered to help and we'll sit down and do some DIY items... like damask the votives, pick out flowers (we;re ordering wholesale), set up invites, etc. That sounds like a plan!





Any other ideas?? Help! lol Also, we're still trying to find our honeymoon place and destination.. we know we want all inclusive, adn cheap! lol





At least I dont look like this bride:

Giveaway!!

Word!

"I lift up my hands to your commands, which I love,

and I meditate on your decrees.
Remember your word to your servant,

for you have given me hope.
My comfort in my suffering is this:

Your promise preserves my life."

Psalm 119:48-50

Thanks Tammy for the inspiration.. I needed it!!! I love this song too.. and it speaks wonders for my life right now... and everyone's life for that matter. We do serve an amazing God! (not to mention, I love Jeremy Camp!)

"Holy Fire burn away

My desire for anything

That is not of You

And is of me

'Cause I want more of you

And less of me."

More.. Teasers!

So this week is crazy.. lots of family drama.. so pray for my family and my younger brother! I have faith in the Lord that things will get better!! Until then, here's more from the e-pic session! <3

I should really learn to follow directions..

lol. So I officially suck at following directions! It's not like I'm a rebel or anything.. My attention just varies.





For example, here I am..bright and early, sitting in the college library on a Friday morning. Now before you get any ideas.. I am not THAT good of a student. I simply suck at following directions. I take a Friday morning English class that usually begins at nine am. Today, however, we were supposed to meet in the library at 9:30..or so I thought. WRONG!





We were supposed to meet in the classroom at 9:30 to walk to the library at 10. Mind you, I'm all for a good walk.. but by the time I made it back to the classroom, all the way across campus, they'd already be walking here. Then I went online (half of our class is done online) to check and see what she really said.. and sure enough, Sam does not follow complete directions. I saw meet/library/ 9:30. When it really said "We will meet in the class at nine thirty and then walk over to the library". Ugh, I could seriously get myself in trouble.





Another example lol is a few weekends ago I was driving my drunk friend home, I was sober thank you. And we were downtown and I had missed my turn, so at the next turn I made a left hand turn. My friend freaks out because there was a cop who saw me.. I was like so what? I can turn. She was like no the sign said NO turns. I was like shut up?! really?!? I thought it said no u-turns lol. And so the cop followed us to the freeway, without pulling me over, thankfully. The next day I go back to that turn to see if she was right or not.. sure enough the drunk girl, who had to get driven home, paid more attention to the sign that I did!!!!





I suck :)





Just thought I'd let you guys know how blonde your friend Sam really is :)





How's you week going? How's the diet(s) going?





I will post on all that later.. I have to call my photographer for our second engagement session.. cause it is supposed to rain.. in CALIFORNIA, in MAY! Goodness, bad enough I had to deal with stupid Swine Flu this week, and now my session maybe canceled. Stupid CA.
