Dream Finally Becoming a Reality

Well the wedding is in a little over 2 weeks and it's FINALLY starting to hit me that I'm getting married!!! It's so exciting but at the same time a little sad to pack up all my things and leave my house and my mom. I will be 10 minutes away but it's still a big change that I will have to adjust to! Everything is finally starting to come together, all the little details that I thought wold never get done are getting done! We painted the lattice's Saturday and they look really great, I can't wait to decorate the church the day before! To be honest, I just can't wait for it to be over and us be on our cruise! I've never been on one before so I can't wait!!!

Yesterday the family came over and we ate yummy food and played madden and wii and watched football :) What a great day. Paul helped me make those yummy peanut butter chocolate cookies. They are amazing! I can't believe Christmas is in 3 DAYS!!!! And Emma gets cuter every single time I see her, I don't know how it's possible but it is! Here is my favorite picture of the angel girl! I can't wait to see her open presents lol.

One Month Away...

Ok, so the wedding is officially in 4 weeks! I guess I won't believe it till it comes but it still seems like a dream to me.. I still have a lot of things to take care of, putting ribbon on my center pieces, seating arrangement, calling all the wonderful people who didn't RSVP, stuffing favors, ordering cake, AHHH!!! Maybe instead of doing this I should be taking care of this stuff lol. I am a very weird bride....I don't get stressed very easily and I always have back up for everything in my mind like if my hair lady can't do it, ill have my sister in law do it and hair is not important at all to me. Neither is the flowers, or any of that I mean I hope everything goes well and nothing crazy happens but the wedding is only for a day I'm more focused and excited about our marriage and the future!

I can't wait to move in to our apartment and DECORATE!!!! Hanging pictures on the wall and making it our place! I can't wait! I'll post pictures when it's all done...:)

AND Emma has nothing to do with this post but she's just so stinkin' cute that I had to include her ;) She gets up on her hands and knees now and rocks back and fourth lol it is the cutest thing I have ever seen and she LOVES dogs...when we chase maggie and pennie she laughs so much!!! Too cute. Here is a picture of me and the princess...

Bridal Shower!!!

My shower was... to say the least, amazing!! I had so much fun and got so many cute things! I'm really blessed to have such an awesome big sister who pulled it off for me! The room was decorated so cute in my favorite color =) The games, the devotional..it was something I will never forget. I still can't believe I just had a bridal shower...and the wedding is 50 days away!!! That blows my mind... I'm just really thankful to everyone who helped my sister to make it such a memorable shower for me! :)

Moving Out?!?!

Soooo... Me and Paul found an apartment in Pembroke Pines!! It's really cute and it's perfect for us..nice and cozy:) I thought about being the one to move out and live there first and was going through with it, until today. Paul came over to take my night stand to start the process of moving all my stuff and the second we got in the parking lot I bust out crying because I didn't wanna live by myself and I really love my room and was sad to see it getting taken apart. I've slept in there for 20 years, It's not easy to just pick up and go. Soooo he said I don't have to do anything I'm not comfortable with and that he could live there till the wedding. I feel sooooo much better about it, and I get my room for a few more weeks:)

Engagement pics!!

A few weeks ago, me and Paul went down to beautiful Vizcaya in Miami to take some pictures with the photographer we're using for the wedding! It was a fun experience and we enjoy looking at all our pictures!





Wedding plans are coming together...All that's left are just a few small details! I'm so excited and time is flying by!! Looking forward to my bridal shower in a couple weeks :)

Invitations & Emma :)

So we decided to do our own invitations with a kit, it saves a lot of money and it's good especially since they will mostly end up in peoples trash cans! We got to pick the font, do whatever we wanted with them and printed them all out one night, which may seem boring but not with me and Paul doing it! :) We had itunes playing and both singing to every song, it was a lot of fun....the worst part is printing the envelopes because we have to copy paste addresses and its just annoying and takes forever so we still have half of those left to do! ugh...but it will be done soon and definitely be worth it! I will recommend this to any bride to be! Even cutting, tying and gluing ribbon on 100 invites isn't stressing me out...Thank you God and thank you baby:)

So I watched Emma all day yesterday, after flying up the turnpike at 6 AM trying not to be late (sorry Heather) we finally got back home and I really enjoyed my day with her, she is the sweetest baby and so funny! I was feeding her a bottle and when I made eye contact with her and smiled, she would stop drinking and smile back and it was so cute that I started laughing and she looked at me and stopped drinking again and screamed at me lol it was awesome. I love her!!!

Wedding Planning

I must say that having Paul be involved in the whole process has been one of the reasons I'm not so stressed. He has been more than helpful to me, we have A LOT of fun doing everything together and when he sees me about to start losing my mind he'll step in even more and help get it done! Couldn't ask for more, He really is a dream... That being said I have a to-do list from my MOH lol (Matron of Honor) and were pretty much finished! Yesterday was picking out the tux and buying bubbles at target, which are really cute by the way :) today is our first pre-marital counseling!! Yay We're both excited and very thankful to God for bringing us together, we know without a doubt that it's all because of Him....

January 9, 2009

I can't believe our "Big Day" is almost here! It seems like just yesterday that I was playing with my baby dolls, changing diapers and giving them baths, pretending they were real. lol. Now I'm getting married!! We both can't wait and are SO excited :) I'm really enjoying the planning part so far, not too much stress, I know that's going to change in the next few months! Overall this is all I dreamed that it would be and I can't wait to walk down the aisle in my beautiful dress to the man of my dreams :)
