A perfect day!

Wow, how fast the time went! Our wedding was one of the best days I've had so far. Everything was absolutely perfect. I've never been on such a high, everything was simply amazing! I wish I would've trusted everyone when they said to not sweat the small things. In the end, they went unnoticed and we both had such a blast! And the weather was perfect. Beautiful, no wind and about 90 degrees.

Our Honeymoon was amazing as well. We stayed 10 nights in Maui, 6 in Kaanapali and 4 in Wailea. It was definitely the trip of a lifetime. We went zip lining (so fun!), snorkeling, hiking, kayaking....it was great. We also wined and dined like never before and enjoyed ourselves immensely. And surprisingly, I'm not quite as bummed about being back home as I thought I would be. I guess I'm still on that high, SO much to look forward to in our new life together! Thanks to all of you for making it an unforgettable day for us.

I'll be a Mrs. when I write my next blog!

This, my friends, is my last blog before the big day. Today is my last day of work until the 28th, therefore it's my last day of routine. And when there's no routine, there's even fewer blog posts!

I'm SO excited for Saturday! And it's supposed to be 90! That's a huge relief after the crappy weather we've been having.

I'm so full of so many different emotions at this point. I have butterflies and I feel like I will start crying at any moment. Anytime I hear any of our songs I start tearing up. And I've been having really weird dreams this week, one on Monday was about my Grandpa Gaston. It was so real---nothing about him had changed. He was exactly how I remember him. In my dream I had gone down to Grandma's for something and Grandpa was sitting on the patio. I was so excited to see him to tell him I was getting married and tell him all about Joe. I know he would definitely approve of Joe! Maybe that's a sign that he'll be with us in spirit on Saturday. I sure hope so.

Hope everyone has a great rest of the week! Be back to reality on September 28! :)

A perfect day

Yesterday my mom, sister and I had a girls day. It was a perfect day! It was the first time Kim had left Sophie for more than an hour or two so it was really a treat for her! We started our day with brunch at Mother's in Portland. We had to wait an hour for a table but it was well worth it. It was delicious! We each ordered something different then shared. Kim had fresh raspberry pancakes, mom had 'Crunchy French Toast' and I had biscuits and gravy. If you're in Portland, this is a must eat place. Even if you have to wait, wait. You wont be disappointed!

After breakfast we headed to Bridgeport Village to our spa appointments at Coldwater Creek. It was so relaxing, felt like we were on vacation. Our only regret is that we only had one spa treatment. We weren't ready to leave!

It was a great day to relax a little before the big day. We got back to Kim's house at around 5 and George made us Roast Beef Po Boys.

It was truly a perfect day! I love my mom and sister!!

FRIDAY!

Happy Friday! I can honestly say this is the first Friday that I've actually been not excited for the weekend. I needed this past week to go just a little bit slower. Actually, a lot slower! Tomorrow when I wake up the, "Oh my gosh, 1 week" feeling will hit me big time. Ahh! Not nervous about saying 'I do' just a little stressed about all of the last minute things that we need to get done. They'll get done though. And if things don't turn out exactly like I had visioned, no one will know. Right?! I'm getting so excited! I feel like I'm already on a high, hopefully it keeps up as the day gets closer! I'm also feeling a little sad about how fast it will all be over but then I remember that we're going to MAUI. That's a huge detail I haven't really had time to think about. So exciting!

Hope everyone has a fun and safe Labor Day Weekend!
