twenty three days and I will officially be a Mrs. what a wonderful thing i can not wait for. At this moment I can't really tell if I'm excited to be married or more excited to be done with the whole wedding planning thing. who knew all the tiny but very important details that happen behind the scenes. Chris is still pretty much out of the loop. I tried to let him in the loop for one day and ever since then he hasn't even asked whats going on. to be honest, he hasn't even seen the engagement pictures yet and I got those back days ago.
Three weeks to go and things are finally getting the finishing details. I feel like I can focus more now on the little gestures with all the major road blocks out of the way. And hopefully at this point everything is solidified.

All I'm waiting for now are the days of things. Like the day i get my bridals taken :)
or the days of all the showers.
Luckily there hasn't been too many fires that I've had to put out. Some miscommunication, Some scheduling conflicts, and some jitters. But nothing too major. Knock On Wood.
I still can't wait to be a wifey, even though its becoming more real. Chris has started to not be able to do things by himself already. What happens to men when they get married, its like their brain shuts off and he hands the steering wheel to you. Not literally, Driving is still something that's "a mans job" according to "the mans law of the land". ridiculous right?
I think our biggest struggle with getting married is Chris letting go of the word "mine".
Yes it is technically his house. but just because i want to hang up some pictures, buy a couch and own more than one towel does not mean that I'm trying to change everything in his life. He has ALOT of adjusting to do. not that i don't, i just think its gonna be really rough for the both of us for a while. At least he is learning early :) he actually ASKED me ladies he could go play golf this week instead of his usual telling me he was going. Hopefully he keeps that one up!
more to come as the days pass by.
oh my dear! And reality is setting in! Just be aware as awesome as being newly married is...there is a reason they say the first year is the hardest! I think women have unrealistic expectations as to how things should be, or at least I totally did! lol Good luck! :) compromise and let the little things go, pick your battles! Love you! ;)
