I - I Love Mike Free!

Ladies and Gentlemen, I am officially marrying the most amazing man on the planet! I'm sorry for those of you who missed him, but he's mine now, and you'll just have to take your pick from the "second bests." =)
When am I marrying Mr. Perfect? Oh, three months from... TODAY!


(...this is where we pause to celebrate and admire the adorable love note found on my door this morning!!!)
Yes, after much waiting (some patiently, some not so patiently... probably more the latter...) we have reached another month mark! I feel like Sadie waiting for Josh, "we're in month 9 now!" Thankfully I do not have to wait two years for my Prince Charming, but it's still nice to see another month successfully pass by! We haven't gone stir-crazy yet, and have even managed to have a lot of fun!
I love you Mike! =)

H - Hilarious!

I am quite convinced that I have the silliest roommate and sister ever! These two quite enjoy taking pictures together, most of which are ridiculous and include one or both of them sticking their tongue out or making some other silly face!
Enjoy!









Notice how Kenzie is always on the left and Elizabeth on the right...



Weird huh?


Even when you throw Barrett into the mix they still keep to their own sides.


Believe it or not, they also know how to take cute pictures together!


See?


So much fun!


I love these girls!


They're so cute! Even when Barrett is making a creeper-ish sort of face.


Sometimes they're totally random and weird...
Like when Kenzie tries to pretends to scare Elizabeth while E's not looking...
See??


On very rare occasions they sometimes they decided to be normal. =)


I love my cute, sweet, funny, crazy, totally random roommates!

G - Gowns, Gems, and Gâteau

I bought my wedding dress! As much as I'd love to post pictures of it, Mike reads my blog (hi Mike... I love you!) and it was determined that he will not see the dress until the day of the wedding... thus no pictures.
However.


My roommates went with me to pick the dress up, and had a blast trying on things for themselves! Just see for yourself!
Three cute girls in three very different dresses... Ariella's face is the best!
Kenzie's lovely yellow dress... complete with Christmas socks!
Cute! I love this one!
Who'd have thought Ariella would like trying on dresses? ... Not me!
Elizabeth LOVED this dress! She danced all around the store in it, not paying attention to anything around her as she dreamily twirled from rack to rack... it was cute!
Ariella just being silly =)
Kenzie tried on a dress that was so big for her that she could turtle inside of it. We laughed for quite a while!
Cute girlies! =D


Sadie found the dress of her dreams! Doesn't it look fantastic on her??


SO flattering... I love the buttons down the back! And the train, and the fittedness... and everything else!


So... I realized the other day that Mike and I have been engaged for a few weeks and I STILL hadn't posted a picture of my ring yet.

So here you go!

A far away and a close up!
I LOVE my ring... out of literally about 100 rings I tried on, and TONS more that I looked at, this one was my favorite! I love how the wedding band interlocks with the engagement ring part (pictures to come later when I'm allowed to have that part!)

Thank you Mike for letting me pick it out! I love it... and I love you! =)



Along with all the other wedding plans, I've been looking through wedding cake ideas. Nothing official has been decided yet... nothing unofficial either for that matter! However, here are a few ideas I've found that I like. Enjoy!

I don't love the green (obviously... this IS me we're talking about!) but I do like the swoopy, drapiness of it!

SUCH a cool idea! A water fountain on your cake?! I love it!

I actually don't really like this one, I just like the idea of swirls and flowers, but not the way they're done here


Again, swirls and flowers, this time incorperating the drapiness of the first one... at least to some degree. I really do like this cake!



This is probably my favorite! The swirls are just right, and I love the white frosting flowers. Obviously if I had colored flowers, I would do them in blue, because hey, this IS me we're talking about! =)

G - Great Gatsby

Preference: Great Gatsby Style!

... it was fun!

Mike and me ready for a great time!



Elizabeth and Barrett... they started dating right after this!



Kenz and Zac... they had SO much fun together!


Ariella and Alex... they're so adorable!


And here we are! It was definitely a night to remember!
