..1 week..

1 week from today, from this time exactly, I will be taking pictures with my new husband, Tyler Simonsen, outside the Oquirrh Mountain Temple.....Oh I can hardly wait to feel that feeling. It brings a smile to my face even thinking about it......:)

Tyler and I have been very busy getting our house ready! I have moved most of my stuff over, we set up our office, We planted flowers!! I cleaned out cupboards and the fridge, and we hung our beautiful new mirror. I love my Dyson, and my LIME GREEN Kitchenaid!! I love my house so much, and I can't wait for it to be officially mine and Tyler's. together. forever.

We leave Thursday morning for Salt Lake for FINAL WEDDING PREP!! Things still left to do:
  • pack
  • get my dress steamed.
  • get my nails done.
  • get my toes done.
  • go to the temple
  • make chicken salad
  • make cupcakes
  • print pictures
  • frame pictures
  • freak out
  • get married!
and probably a million more things I'm forgetting at the moment....haha.
Anyways, there's still a lot to do! BUT it's sooo close!! :) :)
I am so excited.

Yesterday was my birthday and it really made me realize how blessed and lucky I am.
I'm lucky to have Tyler.
I'm lucky to have wonderful brother's and sister's.
I'm lucky to have wonderful parents.
I'm lucky to have wonderful friends and family.

.paint.

Today has been a good day.....It actually started last night when I went to bed at 10:00 pm and then got to sleep until 8:00 am. Oh it was so wonderful! And then I woke up and went to my home to be (in exactly 2 weeks!!!) and me and my hubby to be (in exactly 2 weeks!!!) started prep work for painting our office! We masked everything, cleaned the baseboards, and layed down plastic on the carpet (good thing we did!). Then I painted all the baseboards and molding and window!!! And Tyler painted the ceiling!!! yayayaya!!!! We now have white baseboards and a white ceiling in our office!! Now just our bedroom, bathroom, hallway, family room, kitchen and entry way to go.......
Who paints the ceiling, baseboards and walls ALL the same color TAN??? Talk about LAZY people!!
It was fun making memories with Tyler though :) Painting together for the first time!! AH :) I was laughing to myself the whole time because me and Tyler....well apparently we're not the best painters in the world. It was HARD! haha. I kept tellin Tyler I could see us 20 years from now telling our kids,
"When mom and dad painted together for the first time we struggled a little. every five minutes your dad would say "ugh!" "grrr....." "oh my he**" "dang!" as he would get white paint in the WRONG places! and mom had to run to the bathroom every five minutes to wash her hands because she couldn't get paint on her fresh acrylic nails..." OH that will be fun :)

I love Tyler Simonsen.... yes I do. I can't wait to marry him and start our life together!!
14 days!

Oquirrh Mountain Temple


Just a thought:
I heard this song this morning and was inspired.
Live like you're dying by Lenka-

One of these days you’ll be

under the covers you’ll be
under the table and you’ll realize
all of your days are numbered;
all of them one to one hundred.
All of them millions.
All of them trillions.
So what are you gonna do with them all?
You can not trade them in for mall.
no no

Take every moment; you know that you own them.
It’s all you can do, use what’s been given to you.

Give me a reason
to fight the feeling
that there’s nothing here for me.
Cause none of its easy,
I know it wasn’t meant to be.
I know it’s all up to me x2.
So what am I gonna do with my time?
oh

Ill take every moment, I know that I own them.
It’s all up to you to do whatever you choose.

Live like you’re dying and never stop trying.
It’s all you can do, use what’s been given to you.

All of the moments you didn’t notice;
gone in the blink of an eye.
All of the feelings you couldn’t feel
no matter how you try.
oh oh

I challenge everyone to think about these lyrics.
"All of the moments you didn't notice;
gone in a blink of an eye.
All of the feelings you couldn't feel
no matter how you try."

let's not let this happen to us.....
