Wedding OVERLOAD!

I have to be honest...Ive been slacking with my blogging lately. ive been busy working and planning the wedding! I will say, the wedding planning hasnt been fun for me ..I hate every moment of it thats bad I know BUT however I think it will pay off for me on the day of! So here are some wedding updates!

1. Who knew the HARDEST PART by far would be the guest list decision (not me!) especially when you are trying to keep it at 150....sounds like a lot but trust me we have already gone over!! Bummer.
2. I had a really hard time picking out colors for the bridesmaid dresses..i kept wondering ...is this the right choice? I went with a dark purple. With that said I do like purple but I don't want other things to be purple...I don't want it too look like purple threw up at our reception....do you get where im going with that?!
3. Im not very "girlie" so with that said I have hired someone to do all of the following: Catering, Flowers, Centerpieces for reception, Wedding Cakes, blah blah! his name is Bruce and hes a genius! all i have to do is pick out what i want and he will bring it too life! Easy way out? so what!! :) 
4. We did get our Engagement pictures done and that was fun! We loved all of them and I cant wait to see the rest! Here is a few of my faves that we have seen so far.

 Im gonna leave it at that for now! Have a fabulous day!

help!...... im in a funk and i cant get out ..

So . Jeremy is still gone..its been oh i don't know a little over a month?!! and he wont be home till July 30th! and when he does get home he will only be here for 6 days then its back to Korea!! which leads me to my "funk." I didn't have the best day today..i was just not feeling it today ..i disliked everything and everyone lol! these are times when i wish he was home, but we have to pay for that wedding somehow :) ( that's what i keep telling myself! )

I usually try and have LOTS of girls nights when he is gone, but i have been working a lot lately. I started working at the hospital again PLUS i work at the spine and wrist center so those take up a lot of my time. Good thing we are having a Margarita Girls Night at a friends house this Friday because i miss my girls , and margaritas too of course ;)


I would also like to add that i was super excited to learn that i did not miss the bridal fair woop woop!! its august the 13th and i need all the help i can get so i will be attending and i am super happpyyyy :)

Mother knows best?

I know i have already blogged today. But as i mentiond in my last blog alot has happened since my last update...

In April  i lost my Mother. While my mother was on this earth we were close (in my younger years) and she was a great mother to me and my sister. Over time we grew apart. she never really made any effort to contact me, and that was partly my fault to, i should of tried to contact her more than i did. i am saddened by the fact i really have never had that mother daughter relationship you are supposed to have with your mom. To all my girl friends and guy friends even ..please do not take your mother for granted ..i will never know what it is like ever to have that kind of relationship you have with YOUR moms. i know they can get on your nerves and you don't pick up sometimes when they call because you just don't have time to talk to them at that moment..well trust me i never got phone calls from my mom and i wish i would have. try and see your moms , have girls nights, lunch dates, shopping dates, all that stuff with them! those are things i never got to do with my mom. And i want you all to say you got to spend the best times with your moms! xo

Soooo its been a while

Lots of new things have happened in my life since i last blogged!! for starters IM GETTING MARRIED! yep married. i always imagined this moment and how it would turn out , you think about all the ways it could happen, when , where , how old will i be!? well Jeremy defiantly delivered and i really wouldn't have had it any other way!!

He proposed to me on HIS birthday also known as the great day of ST. Patrick's Day! So basically we go downtown for the celebrations ..i kept wondering why he wasn't partaking in all the drinking activities right when we got there lol. He asked me to get every one together for a group picture so we could have one of the night before everyone started drinking.so i go and round everyone up. I make one more check around the place to see if i have forgotten anyone for our "group picture" and as i turn back around ...no Jeremy i look down and there he is on one knee!!! i immediately think hes joking! ( he joked with me one time on my birthday and said he should ask me in front of my friends as a joke! i told him kelley would have killed him if he did lol) So i slap him on the shoulder and said shut up!! lol then look in his hands and there is my ring! so i knew this wasnt a joke! i said yes and the rest is history!

I am so thankful to say that i will be marrying Jeremy. They always say you marry your best friend and i really be leave in my heart this is true. he is my BESTfriend and i wouldn't have it any other way! i cant WAIT! till May 5, 2012!

Baby i was born this way ..

This is an amazing song . You really have to listen to the words to know the real meaning of it. I think its inspirational and sends a great message to people who may not be conferable with themselves and who they love. Some of you may know i had a gay friend and his name was kyle. he didn't flaunt the fact that he was gay but he was proud of it and he would let you know he was. he was the most fabulous person i have even known! He was also my best friend and a very good one. I really think that its sad that some people in this world are so worried about other peoples lives. its really sad that they have enough hate for gays and lesbians that its saddens me to see them treat them with such hate. how do you think you would feel if someone told you that the one person you loved the most in the whole world was not right and was a sin, and they picked on you ,threw things at you, punched you , made fun of you at school or at work? what if the tables were turned for just one day. Everyone has their own opinion and i respect that opinion but i don't think it needs to go as far as bulling a kid to the point they take his or her own life because they could not take the hate anymore. Please stop and think the next time you see stories like this on tv and how its affecting real peoples lives and families. Kyle had a car accident a little over a year ago and i miss him everyday. i kno he would have loved this song for sure!! i am posting a slower version so you can really understand the words and get the full meaning! it really is a beautiful song!!

Take it or leave it sister!

Recently i have found myself being more of the person i used to be , and i like it! i forgot how nice it was. And what i mean by this is,..... well im not really sure lol!! i don't think i was ever mean to anyone but i had some really strong feelings against some people, and that just wasn't me at all! While i do not wish to mend things with certain people, i have learned some hard lessons from the experiences that i have had over the past few years that i will take with me forever, and that hopefully i can share with others. You cant be too nice though or the not so nice people in this world will take advantage of that, and i learned that the hard way as well! so i will be more cautious this time! ;)

I have a pretty full weekend ahead of me with lots of awesome things in store

Friday i will help my friend Tonya and her sister who owns Spoiled Rockin Kids, with a Justin Bieber red carpet event! yea i know you are super jealous :) i think this is going to be fun, and i mean who doesn't like Justin? I love his songs!! yea i said it! lol 

Saturday we are heading over to a friends house warming party for her and her boo! im super excited for her and im also excited to see some of my friends because its been way too long! im sure lots of awesome party games will be played!

until we meet again

Girlfriends

Girlriends well, they are your rock they will be there when boys come and go. The ones that will be there at 3 A.M. when you need them the most. Will drive however long it takes to come and get you from a situation you may be in , and not say one word about it , because they support you in anything and EVERYTHING you do. The ones you can be silly with and be yourself around. Some one you can tell your secrets to and you know 100 percent they will not tell a soul. I am very thankful to have some girlfriends i can depend on for these type of things. These girls without a doubt I can count on and well, I think they are pretty awesome :). And I think every girl should have friends like these, and if you don't have one like this ......well ill be that girl for you ;)
