That's right, we are LESS than 2 weeks away from the wedding. Actually, less than 12 days (starting at 7:30pm). Lance and I had a wonderful weekend. My mom was able to come down and spend it with us AND brought us the best gift ever- well, maybe I am a little partial- a Rainbow vacuum cleaner. Just in case you have no idea what I am talking about, I can sum it up by saying it is the greatest vacuum cleaner that has ever been made. I have never been so thrilled about a vacuum in my whole life. Lance and also moved all of his belongings into our place this weekend, so that called for some rearranging. I was so proud of myself. I have a beautiful daybed that my parents got for me when I came to Auburn 5 years ago. It has always been in my bedroom, which is going to become mine and Lance's room after the wedding, so the bed had to be moved to the guest room. I got 3 sets of tools out and got to work. I took the bed completely apart and put it back together ALL BY MYSELF, and it is still standing :) I am still celebrating that feat!
On Saturday, some of the instructors I teach with gave Lance and I a shower. A couple who I teach with had it at there beautiful new home, and did an amazing job putting it all together. It was a tailgating themed couples shower, so we got some precious Auburn and grilling goodies. The sweet couple who hosted, Richard and Amy, are so precious and special to Lance and I! We had a great time and are so grateful to everyone who joined us!
I have one more week left here in Auburn before I pack up and head to Corner for wedding week! I have a test on Tuesday, and do not care at all about it. I try to study, and all my brain can process is that I will be marrying my sweet, amazing, wonderful sweetheart fiance in 12 short days!!!! I am so excited! Everything is done, we are just waiting on March 12 to roll around. Finally! I never thought we would get so close!!!
One more thing, CONGRATULATIONS to one of our close friends, Blake. He ran the New Orleans marathon this morning and qualified for Boston with a time of 3:13:13!!!! We are SO HAPPY for you, Blake!!!!!!!
a) Congrats on the impending marriage ... learn from my mistake and don't have your bachelor party two nights before the wedding. Black eye at wedding = bad! But really, congrats on your wedding. I look back on wedding day as basically the first day of my life, because it's truly the beginning of everything.
ReplyDeleteb) You're really, really tempting to make a joke about how much the gift sucks. But I'm not gonna do it!
c) That 3:13:13 is about the coolest time I've ever seen. 3-1-3-1-3. I love it!
