Happy Birthday Joshy!

Today is Josh's 21rst Birthday! I know!! I am so excited for him! Mostly I am excited for the present that I got him! We are going to the beach with our families this weekend to celebrate. I love Josh and I am so grateful to have him in my life! He is way too much fun! I know you are all very Jealous! JK! I had my first Bridal Shower of the season in Myrtle Creek on Tuesday. It was awesome! I just want to say thank you to everyone who was able to come and have a good time with us! I am so glad I was able to spend time with people that have known me since I was a little girl! I loved it! I will soon have pictures up because my new aunt Lorie took a whole bunch! Well I am going to bed! Oh yeah I wanted to say that watching the Olympics this year has been a really cool experience. I guess I have always taken it for granted. It is really cool to be able to watch history making athletics! Well, if you haven't watched anything yet you should!

My Grandma and my Brother

I just wanted to drop a line. I am at my Grandma's house in Myrtle Creek hanging out with my favorite brother and my Grandma and Grandpa! I can't believe how amazing they are! We are here in MC because I have having my very first Bridal Shower tonight! I am really excited! I know it is going to be a good time! My Grandma and Grandpa are the coolest old people I know! OK! I will keep you updated!!

It's Official!

Well actually it is official in a few days, but we now have our marriage license! It has been a very exciting experience. We made it today by only 5 minutes! We even went for the novelty marriage certificate so we can frame it and put it on our wall when we get married. It was fun being downtown again. This time I didn't get to walk though. Josh picked me up and we took the car. I love putting change in the parking meters! I always make sure we have as much time as we need. Josh had to stop me at the meter in front of the post office. I thought we were going to need like 30 minutes(You never know how long the line will be!) but Josh only let me put 10 cents in it. That gave us 15 minutes. When we were done with the post office we had 8 minutes to spare! I know... our life is way too exciting!

I also wanted to let everyone know not to worry! Josh is doing a really good job helping with the wedding! Victoria, Jordan, Josh, and I were working on the invitations and I just happened to get a great picture of Josh in action! He is doing so good I can't wait to see how well he does on the favors and decorations!

Kristen Will you Please Be my Matron of Honor?

My Bestest friend Kristen brought up a good point in her comment. I forgot to mention that I walked from my dentist office on 23rd & Willamette all the way to the court house on 8Th and Pearl. It really wasn't that bad except that I was really thirsty so after I got to the court house I walked to the 5Th street public market and had a refreshing cup of ice water. I called Josh and told him to come pick me up there because I didn't want to walk anymore, but after he called and said he was running late I decided to walk back to the courthouse and get started on the paper work. When I go to the court house I thought they might be closed already, but actually they had no power and wouldn't have power until Friday. The woman at the counter said I could get started on the paperwork and if Josh got there in ten minutes then we could finish it. Unfortunately josh didn't get there in ten minutes. They closed early because of the power outage and all of my walking was in vain, except I got a nice workout. We will have to go back today or tomorrow.
OK, back to the main reason why I am posting right now. Kristen has always been kind of a weird person I never really wanted her to be my matron of honor but when we went and visited her in June she said that If I didn't make her my maid of Honor she was going to eat all of my Wedding cake at the reception and she would put really embarrassing pictures of me in the slide show. I know! Raging lunatic. There have been a few rumors going around that I might have asked someone else. I just want to reassure her that I have not. I still tremble in fear at the thought of going against any of Kristen's Ideas. I know what happens when you do.... Black Eye in my junior year of high school...where do you think I got that. Well Let's just say back in high school it wasn't cake destruction or public humiliation...it was a headbutts of rage! I can't even believe I survived High school. Do you know how many times she had to take me to the emergency room? Everyone else better be careful to because I hear she's training kroten to be a biter! Well enough about my Matron of Honor(that's right Kristen you are it!) who I love very much! I know how lucky I am to have a bestest friend that is so amazing! She is the greatest person I have ever known! I have to get back to work so I will post again tomorrow or maybe even tonight it is kind of FUN!

24 Days to go!!

Yes really!!! Only Twenty four days until we get married!!! Yippee!!!!! Maybe we should do one of those count down things!!! Today we went and got our marriage license but court house was out of power so we have to go back tomorrow. Josh is really excited about going to work tomorrow! He loves his job and his really cool boss! OK well it is late and we are going to bed now... oops I mean Josh is going home and I am going to bed at my house and him at his!

Trisha and Jordan and I made really cool lantern things for our reception, I hope they turn out. My mom keeps getting crazy with me because we have all of these crafts going. I know it is all going to work out in the end and will be so awesome because we created it ourselves. OK now I am really going to bed!!!

Good night!
Hugs-n-Loves!

Our First Blog Officially

So I guess I can't really call this our first blog because it is just me, Sam, but I couldn't wait any longer! I am really excited to join the world of blogging. First I will tell you a little about Josh and I. We are getting married on August 29th 2008 in the Portland Oregon Temple, we are really excited. We will be living in Monmouth Oregon where I will be attending Western Oregon University. Josh has a dog that will soon be our dog. His name is Copper. Yikes! Main questions most people ask....(well the answers to them) Yes I have my dress, No we don't have a cake yet, no we haven't picked out the flowers yet, no we haven't got our marriage license yet, yes we have a DJ, a bounce house, cotton candy machine, snow cone machine, chocolate fountain, and the rings, Yes I have a Matron of Honor, Yes bud is Josh's best man (Another Yikes), and we are going to Canada for our Honeymoon!!!!
Josh proposed at sweet creek falls, one of the coolest most full of memories for all of us places in Oregon. It was great I laughed at him, and then I said yes. We danced around like dorks and then I cried. I totally knew it was coming though because 5 minutes before he asked me he actually poked me in the finger with the ring. I love Josh he is great. Well I guess we will be writing more later!
Loves-n-Hugs
