Home Sweet Home

Provided, nothing disastrous happens, Tyler and I shall be proud homeowners in exactly three weeks from today!!!!!! We are both extremely excited about this! It was something we weren't expecting to happen for a few more years, but God has blessed us and allowed it to happen much sooner! I'm extremely excited about painting and decorating. I can't wait to have cookouts in our very own backyard. I'm ready to have a dog, a spare bedroom, and an office. I can't wait to plant a garden and beautiful flowers. We are just so excited by this!!!!

Although, even with all this excitement, I can't say this house buying process has been stress free. In all honesty, I am completely drained and exhausted. I can not wait until March 5th, when we can move into our cute little house, and I don't have to deal with anymore paper work!!!! Haha, we have signed more papers than I thought was possible, and we haven't even closed on the house yet. Supposedly, when we close the paper work is ridiculous. Oh joy. lol. But after that it'll be done and over with and we can enjoy our beautiful little home! And then I can start focusing on the wedding even more.

The wedding is a little less than two months away. I still have a lot to do. But I do have help, and that is very comforting. I am also very excited about walking down the aisle and marrying the love of my life! I can not wait until that beautiful day! It will be amazing!

I've been realizing a lot lately about how much life changes. It's best just to take things one day at a time. Ashley has become one of my best friends. I love her to pieces. She is really making me think that I missed out on a lot by not having a sister, but whatever I have two now!!! It's pretty awesome, because we're like peanut butter and jelly. lol, I am very glad I chose her to be my Maid of Honor. Because out of every person that I know right now, she would be my first pick! When I first chose her, that is not how things were, but it seems that things have changed. lol, Tyler's not so sure about the closeness between us, but he'll get over it ;p

I have decided that long engagements definitely have their down sides. They are nice, because it gives you plenty of time to save and plan. But also, life changes so much, that what you decide at first is not always what you want come wedding time. I do not have the same best friends that I had when Tyler and I first got engaged. I'm still friends with those people, I just would no longer call them my best friends. Over the last year I've grown closer to people that I never imagined I'd be close with, and I've also become really close with people that I had lost contact with. Life is so beautiful and wonderful. Noone can predict how things will go. How relationships will change. That makes me love life. The fact that I can not tell you for sure what tomorrow will bring. It's unpredictable, and to me that is beautiful!!!!

PS, I'll put up house pictures as soon as I get some more.
