Less Than 2 Weeks Left!!

I am now getting so excited I can hardly stand it. There are about 12 and half days left until Nate and I get married! Wow! It's going to be amazing and I'm so giddy it's ridiculous. This also means that I have a very busy couple of weeks ahead of me. This past week started off with all of the last minute busyness. I got my official bridals taken last Wednesday and I cannot even tell you how amazing this photographer was. He is so talented and really has an eye for it! He showed me a couple of pictures just off of his camera right after he took them and they were awesome! He made me look like a model out of a magazine...and that's pretty hard to do...lol. I cannot wait to see the final edits of the pictures! The experience was one to remember too. I was supposed to get them done on Tuesday last week, but due to the really disgusting dusty, windy weather, we had to postpone it. Thankfully we were able to work something out on Wednesday (I had to rush home from work and hurry and do my hair and makeup...which turned out only average...and then rush off to meet him in my dress). Mom came down to help me out (THANKS MOM!!!!) and drove me where we needed to be since my dress took up half the car...lol. It was freezing outside but at least we had some sun and a little less wind than the day before. In a couple pictures there were some snowflakes falling down....nice thing to have for a spring wedding :). Mom also had to hurry and grab a bouquet of roses from the store so that I had a bouquet in the pictures. We didn't even cut the stems or the thorns off so I got poked quite a bit. But depsite me being frozen, purple, poked, and looking only average, the pictures he showed me were amazing! Ten times better than the ones that were in that link I posted...no offense to them. Seriously, this guy is amazing and I can't wait to see what our wedding pictures look like! It was so fun! For the rest of the week Nate and I pretty much finished our slideshow and music playlist, wrote our song, started packing to move, waited to hear from Boeing, went shopping for stuff we needed, saw Horton Hears a Who (which we loved!! so cute!!), and started printing pictures for the frames at the reception. So it was pretty busy but we got a lot done. By the way, Nate will be receiving an offer for a project manager kind of job at Boeing in Seattle tomorrow. We don't know any details yet so we are dying to get it so we will know what exactly they want him for, when they'd want him, and how much they're going to pay him. His interview up in Seattle went really well and they really liked him. I'm so proud of him! He's so amazing! I'm so so so blessed to be marrying such a wonderful and talented man! So we'll see what they say tomorrow! Who knows, we could be moving to Seattle right after the honeymoon! Crazy stuff! Don't know what we'd do about our Springville contract but I guess everything will work out. So anyways, this week is also going to be very busy. We got our temple recommends today (yay!) and so Tuesday Mom and I will be shopping for temple stuff. Then Thursday and Friday I'll be graduating and Mom and Dad and Nate's family will be there. Then Saturday I will be receiving my endowment at the Mount Timpanogas Temple...I can't believe it! Crazy! During all of this I have to pack up all my stuff, deep clean the apartment, and move everything out since my contract ends and we have cleaning checks...plus I have work Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday all day. This should be interesting...lol. Then next week is the week of the wedding and there will be plenty to do! I'm so excited about it!!! I also can't wait for the bridal shower. The invitations were so cute and Jayla is so amazing!!! Her and Cathi have put together a great shower and I cannot wait! They are both so great! So I guess these next couple of weeks will have 3 major life-altering events....graduation, endowment, and marriage. It's crazy how these 3 things that will affect the rest of my life and the rest of eternity will all happen within about a week of each other...lol. How exciting! Well I hope everyone is doing well!
