Other than school, we've been working and continuing on wedding plans. We got our announcements from the printer last week and are proud to say they are all in their envelopes. Now we just need to seal them, label and stamp them all.
Last Sunday we got to do some light traveling. Sunday morning we followed my mom's cousins, Scott and Jennifer Johns (Widdison) up to Pleasant Grove to see their oldest brother Nathan bless their new little boy, Carter. Then we drove out to East Carbon City, Utah (literally in the middle of nowhere) to visit Jeremy's adorable Grandmother and his sweet Aunt Rayleen. It was so much fun meeting them. Rayleen was kind enough to feed us dinner and send us home with leftovers as well as some chocolate covered oreos :) My favorite! We visited for a while and had a great time. I really enjoyed getting to know more of my soon-to-be family. I wish I had gotten to know Jer's Grandpa, but he passed away about a year and a half ago. Even though it was a long drive home, I really enjoy driving places just the two of us. It gives us a great chance to talk about our hopes and dreams, plans and what we see of our future family - I'M SO EXCITED!!! :D
Only 37 days to go until our wedding! We are so excited. Its gotten to the point that we always eat dinner together, shop together, pretty much do everything together except live together. Does that make sense? I guess we're just excited to have our own place to call home - instead of going back and forth from each other's apartment and all that stuff. I'm really excited to have a kitchen thats all mine (ours but...) like not having to share cabinet space, and just having an organized kitchen that I do all by myself and yeah. Not that my roommates aren't great! They are, I'm just ready to have our own place. Even if it is rather small, it'll be so nice to really start our lives together. Or rather, have one life together, instead of trying to mesh two. Maybe I'm just blabbing and this makes absolutely no sense... I'm starting to feel like this is more of a journal than a blog. I apologize. Well our lives really aren't that interesting right now. Maybe in a few years when I have cute pictures of our kids to put up it'll really be something worth keeping up.
Happy Thanksgiving! Most likely I won't post for a while - but who knows! I might surprise myself haha
Mine's more of a journal, too! I'm not sure there are many people who read it, but hey--it's a personal record, which we're all supposed to be doing, right?
ReplyDeleteIt's so smart of you guys to be doing as much as you can together before you get married! It'll make the transition so much easier! Mitch and I had a long-distance engagement (for all but a month, anyway!) and now we've been married for well over a year and I still feel like i'm trying to figure out what he likes and doesn't like when i'm planning meals!!
