ahhhhhh!!

i am getting married in 5 days.

5 days!

after hours and hours of trying to contact the stake president we finally got our temple recommends signed tonight.


it's amazing to think that something i've been working forward to for my entire life is in my hand.
i get to go inside the temple and be sealed for time and eternity to the love of my life & my best friend!
i love the temple :)
and i love nick!


anyways, last wednesday i had a wonderful day with my loving mother. 
we ate breakfast at paradise bakery, shopped for makeup and jewelry at the mall, and decked out my soon-to-be apartment with all my goodies i got at my bridal showers.
then we picked out roses for my bouquet {my mom's a genius! she made me the most gorgeous bouquet i've ever seen}
and i got my hair done. 
then, i spent the next 2 or so hours getting our pre-wedding/bridal photos taken.
ah, i wish i could post them! 
but, i can't until after the wedding for reasons. 
they're so amazing! 


anyways, i'm completely stoked for saturday!! 
i can feel myself getting more and more excited every minute. 
and, i get to go through the temple for my first time on wednesday.
i've been dreaming about this week for my entire life and it's finally here.
i'm so thankful for my decisions to live righteously so i can finally do what i know to be the best thing i can for my future marriage.


5 days and counting! woot!
