Wedding Blues...


So... I'm getting married in 13 days. I'm really excited about being married, but this wedding stuff can get annoying. Why do we make things so complicated? It sure seems difficult to get the deed done! Is this what God really intended the beginning of a marriage to look like? Scott and I keep talking about how all we want is to be married and happy... without worrying about suits, earrings, menus, etc. I can't wait for the moment when I get to walk down the aisle (before the wedding since we're doing all our pics ahead of time...) and meet his gaze for the first time as his bride. It's going to be beautiful!! Oh, on the upnote, I got my ring back, and I swear it's more beautiful than the day I got it!! It's so shiny and sparkly!!! He did a great job!! I only have this full week of school left, and then two days next week before I get to head home to Illionis. This is all passing by so fast that it seems like a blur!! It's going to be my first Christmas as Mrs. Robinson... now that's crazy!!

Bye Bye Bling...


Where to start!?! I had a great break!! I wasn't ready to leave Illinois... but the exciting thing is that I'll be back there in 16 days, and married in 19!! YAY!! Scott and I had a great time visiting with my family, and of course we had to do like 50 million things for the wedding! I felt like I never really got to sit down except for Thanksgiving Day, and then of course the 12 hours in the car there and back! I had a bridal shower on Sunday, and we received so many nice things. We are so blessed. Last night Scott and I just sat on the bed at my apartment and talked about how we are both experiencing the the "whoa" factor right now. We're both really excited to be getting married and ready to be married, but sometimes we catch ourselves going... "Whoa! When did I get old enough and grown up enough to be married!?!" It's a little crazy to me. Oh, and when I got my ring cleaned at Kay, they said the center stone was loose, so I had to send it off for TEN days so that it's back and perfect for the wedding. I miss it. So... I'll just look at this picture instead. =)
