e-pics!

Hey Hey Hey
So yesterday we got our engagement pictures taken. Can I just tell you how much fun it was and how our photographer truly did capture so much of who we are..

We got to see about 20 of our pics from yesterday and most of them I LOVE! some not so much but that's why he took a couple hundred :)

Here is the link to look at the ones he posted and tonight he's going to post the rest of them on his webpage... http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/album.php?aid=113498&id=145399012898

Also, I just can't help but say I'm crazy in love with my gorgeous fiance! He is so amazing. Lately, I've been so hard to handle and he still loves me.. it really suprises me that I have someone who loves me this much.. he the greatest and the best.

Anyways... Enjoy!

** I think next I'll post some new pics of the house.. we'll see** Also I need some wedding ideas to make our wedding personal.. but I need DIY ideas.. got any?

this kind of l<3ve

Lately, I've been overwhelmed with feelings of love for my FANTASTIC fiance! I mean don't get me wrong.. I've always loved him with all my heart but I truly have never felt it so deep. We've been dating since we were 16 years old (now going on 21).. to some this doesn't seem like long but i've spent the best years of my life with him... and I plan on spending many more, God willing! It seems like times a good when I'm not around him but when I'm with him life is GREAT! He truly goes out of his way to make sure i'm happy and he strives to love me as best he can and that to me is so selfless because I know i'm a hand full. I'm moody, loud, silly, strong willed, and a BIG BABY! But he loves me... he always tells me how much he loves me so that I always know.. I never doubt that i'm loved. He tells me I'm beautiful and how much he misses me. I have been thinking about all these things that he does that make me feel special and I realized these were all words.. words mean so much but actions speak louder than words.. so i thought about EVERYTHING he does for me.. he lets me skip class and takes notes for me when i'm sick, he gets me water when i'm thirsty, he lifts me up when i'm discouraged, he reminds me of how much Jesus loves me when i'm struggling, he knows me so well that without words he knows what i'm feeling and what he can do to help.. I am so lucky!!

I have been thinking about when Jason proposed to me and the look on his face.. he was sooo happy! He suprised me *for the first time EVER* he got the perfect ring.. he made my heart drop to my toes when I looked beside me and saw this gorgeous man on one knee with a smile from ear to ear asking ME to marry him.. I just do not know how I got such an amazing man.

And I've been praying for those that don't have this kind of love .. that everyone would find that person God made for them. Someone to treat them right, make them laugh, know them so deeply that words aren't needed.

just to blog

oh me, oh my... it has been busy around here. however, i hate to report that none of it has been because of wedding things. i totally slacked over this summer.. i'm a list keeper and i like to check things off but this summer i neither followed nor checked off any of my list. we were suppose to register for our bridal showers ... but.. that doesn't look like it will get done until around December(if we're lucky!) The best part of it all is that i'm okay with the fact that nothing got done!! Go me (this is really good for me because i totally freak when things don't go according to planned.. so i'm learning to chill out.. though i DO NOT, i repeat DO NOT have this mastered just yet!)

so with the hustle and bustle of our junior years coming to full force i'm just taking it one day at a time. i've adopted a new mind set this year.. if i'm ahead then i'm not behind and each day is it's own.. so i've chosen to keep on top of my assignments (however, i can't say i've been keeping up with studying.. oh well!!) and i've made lists which i could care less if get accomplished in a timely fashion. i feel a lot less stressed.. however, i'm still stressed. did i mention i was in nursing school? ahhh, talk about crazy! so far i've seen a robot give birth (yep! that's right.. a robot!!) and taken pages upon pages of notes.. oh, and played with needles!! haha, to those that don't know the life of a nurse you'd think i'm crazy but to those that do.. it's daily life! now that i'm rambling..

here are some updates.. our house is coming along and the wedding.. well yea that will get done before May 28,2010.. for sure.. if not then it will just have to be left out! (can you tell i like dots..)

so much for now. ps. i miss my family and cannot wait to see everyone again.. i had tons of fun with the fam from NY (yes ma'am.. thats you Cheryl) and i'm already missing my little cousins who are back in school. what am i going to do when i'm married and everyone is living life? i vote.. TRAVEL! hint..hint Jas.. SAVE UP ;)

Well i'm off for now. Enjoy!
