Who Knew...

     I have survived my first day of senior year.... Yes. I said it SENIOR year. Cam has yet to start his last year because he is one of those college kids who only has class on Tuesday and Thursday... Yeah he is pretty smart.

    So I have been finishing up the last of my Bridesmaids gifts... Hopefully by Friday I will be able to blog about how I asked each of them... Until then I will tell you that there are 5 Bridesmaids, 1 Maid of Honor, and 2 Honorary Bridesmaids. They will in fact be the prettiest bridal party you have ever seen. I also have THE 2 cutest Flower Girls and Ring Bearer or all time. Cam has yet to ask his Groomsman so we will be waiting to hear from them a little bit longer... 

    Anyways, who knew that finding a place to get married would be so hard. I never knew that there was so much stuff that went into planning a wedding. I mean you have to literally think of everything. Obviously every bride wants there wedding to be beautiful and memorable for everyone. I definitely want that... I also want it to represent Cam and I. I think we are pretty simple folk who genuinely love being with our family and friends... We are even lucky enough to have a handful of friends that have become family. We want everyone to be involved in our wedding and everyone to have fun. I think that is one of the most important things... FUN.

    So, with that said I am trying my best to calm my crazy nerves and to not stress out. It has all been so fun so far, even with the little bit of stress I have encountered. I know I have way more stress in the future, but I am going to take one of my friends' advice and "remember its my big day and that I need to enjoy every second of it". Thank you Sarah for reminding me weekly about this.

    I was going to give yall some ideas about how I am thinking I want our wedding to look, but I just decided that I want to start this new thing.... WEDDING WEDNESDAY! From this week on every Wednesday I will post tidbits about this whole wedding planning thing. :)

Life Lately...

    My life lately has been a big jumble of memories and busyness and I have loved every minute of it. So, I thought it would be a good idea to retell my life lately in bullet points because who does not love bullet points?

  • I returned home to Texas after two wonderful weeks in Florida complete with a big rock on my left hand!
  • I have spent a lot of time retelling "THE STORY" of how Cam proposed... It has been so much fun... everyone please keep asking ;)
  • I have finished up my 4th and final year as a swim team coach to some of the sweetest kids around. 
  • I have spent time with my family, fiance, and his family. 
  • I have laid in the sun with some of my favorites. 
  • I went to my sister-in-law's baby shower with my other sisters!
  • I have hugged and kissed on all of my puppies. Many many times.
  • I have hung out on the lake with THE 3 sweetest and funniest little kids ever (Camden, Braelynn, and Crayton) and got to watch my fiance show off and talk wedding with my favorite Ally!
  • I have read and read and read bridal magazines.
  • I have become totally and completely obsessed with Pinterest... wedding plan at its' best!
  • I have decided on the bridal party... now to ask them :) 
  • I turned 21!
  • I have successfully moved into a new rental house with my fiance! 
  • I have been to several rangers games with awesome seats!


    Now on the agenda is to knock out this intercession course that I am taking. Health psychology I am coming for you. I hope I survive this 8-5:30 class! Then I am going to find my inner pinterest girl and create the best bridesmaids invitations ever! I will let you know how those go....
