Wow!

I had my temple recommend appointment with my bishop today. I am so excited I can hardly stand it! I get to go to the temple and be able to have all the blessings of the temple. To quote Pride and Prejudice: "It is too much! It is too much! I wish that everyone could be as happy as I am!"

Cake is taken care of and that was the last thing other than getting my train bustled that was on my list. Done done done! Now I just have to wait... ugh.

19 days and Counting

Flowers: Check!

All I need to take care of is the cake! Sweet... no pun intended.

So Little Time

We have 22 days left and I am in a scramble. I went down to GA to pick up my dress over the weekend. It is amazing!!! I would post pictures, but well... Casey reads this blog too. It is so beautiful. I have the caterer all taken care of, the reception site is booked, I have a DJ, a photographer, the invitations are sent, and I just have to take care of cake and flowers.

Keeping up the schoolwork and wedding plans is getting pretty stressful, but I am keeping it together. Casey and I are going to pick out a tux today and then I am heading back here to school for more non-stop homework. Oy... it will all be here faster than I can blink.

The Plans are Raging On

That's right. Raging!

I have a reception location, I am meeting with the caterer on Friday, and I am working on ordering things that I will need from the interwebs. Life is going about a million mile an hour right now and that is all I really have time to write.

*drumroll*

So it looks like we will be able to be sealed on the 24th of November!!! I am so excited I can hardly stand it. I am rapidly making plans for a small reception here near SVU and then we will have two open house in May when my dad gets home. My dad is scheduled to have leave starting the 17th and should get to GA within 4 or 5 days.

So far, I have a DJ that is on standby for a location. The reception space is in the process of being reserved. I am going to check it out tomorrow. This week I am going to call the Temple and schedule my endowment session and the sealing. They are going to be on the same day. Yes, I know I am crazy... but I have no choice.

I met with my bishop today and we talked about plans and such. I am going to have my interview for my temple recommend around the 10th and then I will meet with the stake president within a few days of that. I was able to go do baptisms on the 13th of this month and it was amazing! I love knowing that I am worthy to go to the temple. It is pretty much one of the best feelings in the world.

Now that the wedding plans are underway I will try to keep this thing updated, but since everything is happening so fast it may be spotty. So far so good... just 37 days left!

Let Them Eat Cake

So I am bored and looking at wedding cakes online. There is one that I really like, but I am not on my laptop so I can't save the link...


So this one would have sage green fondant ribbon and dark purple calla lilies instead of being white.


This cake is a similar deal as the one above... sage green satin ribbon, purple gum paste calla lilies. Oh... and no gum paste dots. I think they are tacky.

So there is my boredom.

It'sGood to Be Back

Casey and I are finally back at school... still not married, but back at school. I am taking some pretty fun classes.

Spanish 101: yes, I am taking another language class. I thought it might be 'fun' to take it so Casey and I can talk to each other in 3 languages, English, Spanish, and German. He is taking German. To continue:

Intro to Business: I am a Business minor now. I thought it would be a good idea to have a little business background to go with my Art major.

Intro to Printmaking: I love art classes! They make my life happy and slightly less stressful.

Ballet: I have to take Phys. Ed. classes to graduate. This means I have to find classes that don't involve a lot of running. Also, I love love love ballet! I have always wanted to be serious about ballet, but I am not flexible. Alas...

Bookmaking: This is a great class so far! I am loving it! Again, art classes are wonderful.

Institute: I am in the Life and Letters of Paul class. It seems pretty good so far, but I don't know how it will be. It only meets once a week, so I haven't had a good taste of it so far.

Those are my classes. I am pleased with how things are going so far this semester.
