"I'm Getting Married In the Morning, Ding Dong The Bells Are Gonna Chime"

So I am sitting here at 12:35 AM on the DAY of my wedding. I should be sleeping OR getting the million little things done that I have left to do... but I am blogging instead. I thought I would just take a minute and write down some thoughts.
The wedding day is a day that every girl dreams of her entire life. It seems like it has been such a long road, but that day is here for me. And I can't believe it. This really has been the longest 2 months of my life.
I am so ready for the wedding plans to be over and to just enjoy my new life with Daniel. Sometimes I think I should have taken my mom's advice to skip the reception and just save the money. Weddings are hard. There are a lot of emotions (from every side) that go into planning a wedding and there is a lot of stress. Sometimes I really wonder if having a reception and big wedding celebration is worth the stress and strain that it causes. I guess we will find out tomorrow.
For all you helpers out there, I would like to give a big, huge, THANK YOU (informally, you will get a "thank you" note too). So many people have been there to give me ideas and support. I really couldn't have done this without the help of so many of my friends and family; especially my mom. She has done some pretty amazing things for me. Thanks to her, my reception looks amazing! There was no way I could have come up with it all on my own.
Anyway, sorry to be so deep and talky right before my wedding. I do want you all to know that I am very excited to get married and to start a new journey with Daniel. Let's hope it's a good one! Wish us luck!

Look At The Pretty Flowers......

This is a picture of my yard (I rent from Ashley and Heber). Aren't the flowers pretty? And no, I am not just talking about the tulips. I am also talking about the OTHER pretty little yellow flowers scattered all over the yard. They are called Dandelions. And they wont go away. I think I have the prettiest yard in the whole neighborhood. Too bad I am moving soon. :-)
