Knitting is therapeutic

On crazy days like today if I knit while I work I keep my sanity. Bless Bethany for teaching me.

Oh ya know

Just me being awesome. YOLO!

Yes, I have lost my mind.

Life

Found out today that from now until my wedding I am required to work at least 50 hours a week. I'm still trying to close on our condo. Trying to finish all the last wedding details. All while trying not to lose my mind. Wish me luck.

Is it October yet?

Isn't being in love the best?

We sure think it is.

funny fiancé

So I know I've said this one thousand times but Justin is the funniest guy ever. Even when he's not trying to be.

He has class last night and was going to come over after. I wanted to know what time to expect him so I texted him "eta?" he immediately responds with "estimated time of arrival" like I was asking him what it meant. I DIED!

The other night we wanted to go out to eat to celebrate our new condo and I told him we could go anywhere he wanted! What did he choose? TGIFridays! That man.

Did you know...

If you are a freak like me and happen to be allergic to both soy and dairy Starbucks will use your own almond milk!! I am in love with them again. I used to just suffer through it but now I can enjoy it like a normal person!

Wonderful Weekend

I had an absolutely wonderful weekend! My shower was beautiful and so nice! It was at Watt's Tea Room and oh my gosh was it nice! Justin's aunts did such a good job making it nice for me. I got so many great presents! My favorite was from my mom and sister. They bought me picnic supplies and they were all labeled. So cute!!

Then on Sunday Justin and I had a day to ourselves. We has every intention of going to church but SOMEONE ripped his pants and his undies were hanging out. It was pretty funny. He tried to sew them as fast as possible but we ended up missing church. Oops. So we went out to lunch and then saw a movie. I loved every second of it. Then we went home I slept (of course) and he watched a movie. When I woke up it was sunny but raining so we ran outside and danced in the rain. So much fun! Then we saw a double rainbow and my life was made complete. We ended the night watching the Burbs with my parents.

It was indeed a wonderful.

Plays with squirrels

Our new thing is watching Boy Meets World every night. I forgot how hysterical that show was! It's my favorite part of the day. We surround ourselves with blankets and pillows and laugh our heads off. Last night we watched the episode when Erik changes his name to "Plays with Squirrels". We were dying. Justin is OBSESSED with squirrels so it was extra funny. I seriously love that Justin is my best friend. He makes me laugh harder than anyone and I never get sick of him. It's the best.

In other news we are supposed to close on our condo in 12 days. Oh my gosh! I'm so pumped.

Wedding plans are coming along swimmingly. We have sent out our invites! If you didn't get one, sorry. It's a small wedding. Don't hate us forever.

I have my second wedding shower tomorrow hosted by Justin's aunts and mom. I'm really excited! It is so sweet of them to do this for me! It's at a fancy tea place! That reminds me I have no idea what I'm going to wear. SHOOT. too bad I'm poor and can't go shopping.

I've discovered that 90% of my job is activating check cards all day long. If you own a check card and need to call your bank to activate it, be nice to your banker. We don't want to hear your 16 digit card number as much as you don't want to read it over the phone. Also, please never forget your pin number. It's a headache for everyone involved. One last thing it takes time to make a card. I'm sorry I can't make one myself and deliver it to you personally in 5 seconds.

Moving on.

Pineapple + Nuetella = a delicious party in my mouth.

Oh hey, it's F R I D A Y !

It's Tuesday!

I have nothing of significance to say.

State Fair!

We love the fair. Well, I love the fair. Justin could live without it. I finally convince him to take me yesterday. We had the best time! We were only there a couple hours but that was enough. We people watched, ate tons of fatty food, and laughed our heads off. It made me even more excited for Disney with Justin.

Because I just haven't said it enough on this blog.

The success of yesterday

Well I ended up spending most of my time on the couch watching Netflix. Do I regret it? Nope. Sometimes you just need those days. Tonight I will be working on thank you cards and wedding stuff. The fiancé has plans (boo). So if anyone is bored you can come help me with the wedding ;)

Happy Wednesday!

So glad today is Wednesday/my half day. 

I plan to get many things accomplished....or I may lay on the couch and watch Netflix all day. 

We'll see.

Bridal Shower!

My lovely sister Kelly/maid of honor and my wonderful mother threw me a bridal shower yesterday. 

The whole day was perfect!! 

It was a vintage picnic theme. 

She had every detail perfectly orchestrated.

 I had the best time.

 I opened so many wonderful presents! 

Justin and I both feel truly blesses by the women in our lives.
