Wow

Words cannot describe what I am feeling right now. I'll try...... I am the happiest girl in the world who might have a seizure at any second. I can't stop SHAKING! I woke up at eight this morning... I was supposed to sleep in until 9:40... that is in half hour... ;) I made my list of things to do today which seem super important right now. I'll look at this list next week and laugh. Crazy Bridezilla. :) I want today to be PERFECT and I know it will be.

The rehearsal was a little hectic last night, with timing of songs, slideshows, and that 16 person wedding party... :) The rehearsal dinner was incredible! Great food and good friends and family surrounded Mark and I. Tim and Jenny gave speeches that were excellent! I'll probably post them on here later. The best part was when Tim talked about getting his nipples pierced with Mark.... and the look on Mark's Dad's face was classic... (*He had no idea...*) It made for some good laughs and Bill didn't kill Mark so I would say it went well. :) Jen told us she hopes the only ups and downs we have in our marriage are the ones in our bed. Gotta love her. She brought up some great memories of the two of us... from kindergarten, through volleyball years, to living together in college and throwing away dirty dishes instead of washing them.

So now it is August 2, 2008 and I'm making my list and checking it twice. I am ready to see Mark when those church doors open. It is awesome to know today I will show up to Maryland Community Church an Alexander... and leave a Baker.... :)

Love you all!

Hope to see you at the wedding and reception!

PREMARITAL PREOCCUPATION

GOODNESS! WEDDINGS SURE ARE A LOT OF WORK!!! EVEN FOR SOMEONE WHO IS THE QUEEN OF DELEGATION!!!!!

so0o00o0oo0 I know that the wedding is going to run smoothly and be the most perfect weekend of my life, but the stress leading up to it is ALL KINDS OF CRAZY! I totally did NOT expect this at all!!! Why oh why did I turn into this crazy Bridezilla, trying to ensure I have the old, new, blue, and whatever the last thing is.... calling the videographer umpteen times to ensure everything is perfect.... ensuring that all the boys have been fitted for their AMAZING tuxes.... making sure all the gifts are ready..... and then it hits me......

It would be weirder if I wasn't acting this way. I am glad that I am stressing out, wanting to ensure every DETAIL is taken care of to ensure that Mark and I have a PERFECT weekend.

I am madly in love and want everyone to know it. I thought for sure I could be the 'cool' bride who didn't bring up the fact that she was getting married every four seconds. Now I'm the one people at work are rolling their eyes at... and avoiding... because I WON'T SHUT UP!!!

Now that I am on the other side, I don't care who is annoyed! I am so happy I could burst! ((And hope I don't in that rocking (but snug) wedding dress for Saturday)).... ;)

For those of you who will be there to share our special day with us, thank you in advance... please please please bring your cameras because I want an EXCESSIVE amount of pictures. ;) *You know me...*

For those of you who cannot be with us this weekend, you are MISSING OUT.... This is going to be one ROCKING WEEKEND.... whether I figure out that fourth thing I'm supposed to wear or not.....
