4 more days....It's wedding week.

I haven't written in a while, mostly because I've become too busy to write anything down and we didn't have internet for a month.

Time has flown by and we are now 4 days out. I cannot believe it! Where has the time gone? I cannot believe that in 4 short days, I will marry the guy I fell in love with over 3 and half years ago. God is good.

I've realized over the past few days how much I truly love this man I'm about to marry. Yes, we give each other a hard time, but we aren't like most couples. I'm so glad for that. We aren't mushy/gushy, we're sarcastically in love. I wouldn't trade him for anything.

I keep trying to imagine what it will be like when I walk down the isle...will I cry like an idiot (probably, because I'm the most emotional drama queen around town, I hide it well right??) Will I laugh and wave at people who've come to share this day with us, will I pass out from how tired I am, will I be shaking because I'm so nervous to see my handsome future husband...I think I can answer yes to all of these. But then again, I still can't imagine it.

There have been great moments and bad moments...times when I laughed til I cried, and just moments where I cried. But, I am so ready to be there on that day....Please pray for me, my stress level will be at its highest point in the next few days.

Dave assures me the weather will be nice....

The only part missing is having my grandparents there. From the day I started planning this wedding I have incorporated them into this day. I wanted to have it in the fall because I loved going to Clintwood and walking in the woods with my granny and granddad during this time. I loved making piles of leaves and jumping in them. I loved bone fires with my dads family when I was younger (my cousins scaring my sister and I as they hid in the woods making indian sounds). My mamaw's birthday is in September, she would have loved Corey so much! She would have given him dozens of hugs and sat with him for hours just talking (And he would have listened because he's so patient). She would have payed him a dollar to dance with her to her favorite country/gospel song. And these are the things I miss the most. I miss them so much. I just hope God lets them look down from heaven for a few minutes. (that would be great)

On Saturday, I will walk down the isle with 4 small picture frames attached to my bouquet. (Pictures of my grandparents) I will wear my mamaw's gold tennis bracelet, my granny's hair clip, my moms pearl earrings and necklace,the border of my veil is lace from my mom's veil and on my right hand I will wear Corey's granny's ring, that he gave me when he knew I was the right one. For something blue, I'm wearing my Cowboy boots and praying that I don't fall down.

I can't thank everyone on here (mostly because I'm horrible with names) but thank you to each and every one of you, who have helped me in this process. (I'm still trying to buy stamps for all the thank you notes)

4 days people, 4 days! Get excited, I know I am!! And one more day of work, hopefully i won't fall asleep running cameras tomorrow.
