We've officially hit the two month mark so with less then 60 days to go we have lots to accomplish. Its been hard to find time to do things because of Brian's and my conflicting work schedules but when Saturday finally rolls around we have a list a mile long to see how much we can cross off in one day (so much for a relaxing weekend right?) but none the less it is fun to be busy doing something that brings so much excitement and helps us get to know each other just a little bit more. Last Saturday we went the Verizon store to get on the same phone plan, both of us had previously gone to the store and looked online at which phone we were going to get so we were already to go when we got there. Everything went great, except the next day i changed my mind and went and exchanged my phone and then the day after that he did the same, so i learned that we have a hard time making up our minds but it was definitely an adventure going back every time and fun to see Brian and i get so excited about our phones we actually had a phone date :) Last night my mom was altering my wedding dress and as i was wearing it i was burning up, the dress is like a sauna, anyway i am so glad i am getting married when it will still be cold out or else i would be sweating the whole time!
As well as getting new phones we also picked out the wedding bands and ordered those, we finished about a third of the invitations, finished the guest list, registered at two stores (boy that took forever!) and fell even more in love, cheesy i know but so true! As for this Saturday we get to do even more starting with retaking engagement photos and trying to find a nice area with cheap apartments for somewhere to live! Finding a place to live has been a rather hassle. Brian is very stubborn and insists that we live in a good neighborhood because he wants me safe when he works the night shift, i couldn't be more grateful to have someone that cares and looks out for me so well, but it does make things more difficult. I am sure we will find something though.
Aside from all the planning and frantically trying to get things done i always can just step back and look at the eternal perspective of things and i am constantly reminded of how blessed i am to be able to be sealed to Brian for time and all eternity and how wonderful that is. That thought always brings me so much peace and happiness. Brian and i started taking our temple prep classes about two weeks ago and we enjoy having that reminder of the temple and the wonderful blessings it entails. We are so grateful for our wonderful friends who take the time to teach us one on one all about the temple. Along with temple prep i am also going to the marriage and family relations class at church which has already been a blessing to us.
I can not say enough how blessed i feel to have met such a wonderful young man that is willing to love and embrace me for who i am and all my flaws and take me to the temple to be sealed together for eternity. I truly am so happy and thankful for the gospel and all the joy it brings.
