123's of my life

1. Tonsils

Poor Poor Landon. A week ago today he got his tonsils taken out. This was a picture his sister Brynlee sent me right after his surgery. How sad is that picture?

He has been such a good sport all week! Denise and Rick took off and went to the Cayman Islands for a week, so I was in charge of babysitting Landon. It was such a fun week, well at least for me! The first few days Landon was doing really well. He would edit videos all day and be pretty chipper when I got home from work. About Friday is when the troubles started. Landon promised he would be at my graduation, and he was, but he was in a lot of pain. I am so grateful that he was there to support me even though he was so doped up on pain killers he may not remember the actual event. Hopefully he will be feeling better soon.

2. Wedding Plans

This week is an exciting week for Landon and me, this week is the start of our wedding showers! I am so freaking excited. I am starting to feel like we are actually getting close to being officially married.

We found our first apartment and we can start moving in around memorial day! It is the cutest little two bedroom, really close to the U. On Saturday bought our first tv stand and kitchen table! We just need a couch, desk, hutch, bookcase, rug and a few minor other things now. Haha we will be fine!

Our invites are ordered and should be done in about a week or two. I can't wait to see the final product of these because they have taken forever to finally get ordered!

3. Everything Else

I am so blessed to have the life I live. I am grateful everyday to have such amazing family and friends, and I am so grateful to have such an amazing new family to be joining soon. I couldn't have asked for better in laws, they are the best! I am so happy that I have a good job because I know there are so many out there right now struggling to find a job. And I am so grateful to have found Landon. He is the most amazing person and I can't imagine my life without him. He is my other half and I will love him for forever.

SO here is the thing.

I blog when I am bored, but lately, I haven't been bored. LIKE AT ALL. Planning this wedding and my future life has been so much fun. Anyway here are a few things on my mind today.

1. Note to self: Don't bring chocolate raisins to work when you work with two prego ladies. They will disappear before you even get some. #r.

2. Landon and I found our apartment last night! I am so excited, and Landon didn't sleep at all, he was cruising IKEA for stuff. I seriously cannot wait. It is a perfect little 2 bedroom on non other than Elizabeth Street! Blah! So Excited. I can't wait to live with Landon, it is going to be a blast. He is honestly the funniest person I know.

3. Example of Landon's funny-ness: He is getting his tonsils out on Tuesday, and the hospital called him today to ask him if he had any pre-existing heart conditions that they needed to be aware of. His response in a very serious voice "actually, I have a horrible heart condition. Many people tell me I have a heart of gold". Haha really? That is genius. He is amazing.

4. We took our engagements this week, and what I have seen of them I am loving! Seriously, they turned out even better than I expected. Here is a sneak peak of the amazing work of Christine Olson Photography. She was SUCH a blast to work with and did such an awesome job. I could not even explain how great she is!

Ok, I admit, the last post was a little depressing and I apologize. But it was just such an off day. Today is pretty much the opposite. Landon is moving all of his stuff home today!!! No more nights in Provo for him! I could not be happier about this!!!

On another note, I found the perfect top for my mom to wear at the wedding from Zara. Here is the kicker, Zara doesn't ship! Yeah, that is real. The only way to get their clothing is to go into a store and buy it. Well since the closest store is Vegas I am depressed. I have to make this happen.... so if anyone who is reading this lives in the same city as a Zara, I will literally do anything if you can mail me this top. Like ANYTHING! So please let me know.

Anyway, the sun is finally out! It may not be super warm, but it is getting there. Hallelujah!

That is all for now.

Blah Day

Dear April 12,

You are not a Monday, but you aren't even close to a weekend.
You are gloomy and grey and raining, and I need it to be warm and sunny.
You didn't let me sleep a wink last night, there was way too much running through my mind.
You are the beginning of Landon's week and a half of tests in stupid Provo.
You are 72 days away from my wedding, which seems like an eternity right now.
You are such a blah day.

Sincerely,
Beth

Wedding and Bow Obsessed

So the wedding plans are coming along nicely! When I got back from Spring Break (I will blog about this amazing trip soon), I felt like I have a list a mile long of wedding things to do. After being home 2 weeks I feel a lot better about where Landon and I are in the planning timeline. We have gotten so much done this past week! Basically our whole wedding party now have their clothes at least ordered, we registered this weekend which was SO much fun! We ordered our wedding rings, and we have almost finished the invite list for the wedding, all of the showers and the wedding dinner! Life is feeling really great.

Also I have my first fitting with Penny in a week and I couldn't be more excited! I know it won't even resemble my dress at all, but I am just so excited to get the process started!

Throughout all the wedding stuff, I have come to realize that I am weirdly obsessed with bows. I am not a flowery or a glitter girl, I just love bows!





I am having WAY too much fun planning this wedding. People say planning a wedding is stressful, I am still waiting to realize when the stress sets in? I am having a BLAST!
