MIA

Hello blog readers, all 9 of you. I feel like I have been MIA over the past few weeks. I tried to hold myself more accountable to blogging and tried the whole "Wedding Wednesday" segment. But some times life has other plans. January is proving to be another busy month for me. Some nights I would get home and fall into my bed. I've been extremely tired these past few weeks.

Soccer season is officially over. We lost in the first round of state play offs. I hated to see this season end, we had such a great year. I also hated to see it end because that meant our seniors would be leaving us. We had such an awesome group of seniors this year and I know they will do great things in this big world. Three of the girls signed with 2 different junior colleges. I don't know who more excited me or them. Maybe it's because I've been where they are right now and looking back on everything, it was one the most exciting times of my life.

Now that soccer is over and my body is defrosting, I can finally have some free time. Oh, wait, now I am in super plan mode for our big day. We are almost to the 100 day mark!! EEEKKKK...yes, I squealed like a little girl. We had our first round of premarital counseling and it went great. I am so excited to start this journey with my guy and his love for the Lord and his love for me.

Here are a few pictures to catch everyone up.

Wedding Wednesday: More like wedding woes

Hi all!! Well, twenty-thirteen is rolling on through and not slowing down a bit. I guess I need to clear up the title of this post huh? I wish I could I could go in to detail about my awesome wedding dress but ya'll will get to see it soon enough.

My dress have a love-hate relationship. I love my dress. My dress hates me. First it hated my top half because it didn't fill it out enough. We went through alterations and I thought everything would be ok. I was so excited when the dress came back..but it I lost a little weight and the dress practically fell off of me. Grrrr.

My dear friend, Emily, made the suggestion that I should wait to get it altered again. Just in case, my weight comes back, we wouldn't have to get it altered AGAIN. About a month ago, Emily and I were at Dirt Cheap and I saw a bra/corset thingy that was only five bucks! I had to be careful when buying an undergarment because of the way my dress cuts. (I seriously wish I could show ya'll pictures.) But it was only five dollars, nothing would be hurt if it didn't fit. Soon as we left, I wanted to try my dress on with it. We went to Emily's house and I put it out and it was like fire works! My dress fit like a glove. I kinda got teary eyed knowing this is really the dress! I was secretly screaming on the inside, "IT FITS, IT FITS!!

On Monday, January 7th, I went over to catch some of the National Championship at Emily's. My opinions on football will have to wait for another post. I decided to try my dress on again....bad idea. This is where the hate part comes in. IT DID NOT FIT. I mean really?? And this time it didn't fit it my thighs, I mean really? That's all I kept saying. I made the decision, with help of course that I was going to wait until mid February and if it didn't fit then, I was taking it to get in altered, yet again.

That is my wedding woe as of right now and I really hope it's the only one. On a much bright note we are 130 day mark until I am a MRS.!!!!
