We're Married!!!

Well it's official! We have been married for one week and it has been the best week of my life! Our wedding day was absolutely perfect. It even snowed the day before! I wish I could say the past week has been as perfect as our wedding day. On Sunday we drove up to McCall, Idaho where we were planning on staying for three days. While we were in McCall my car broke down, and since it's a small town we had to be towed back to Boise to have it fixed. We stayed the night at my parent’s house, hoping our car would be fixed so we could get back on the road. They didn't have the part, so my parents loaned us their extra car so we could get home. We had to make a stop at my brother’s house in Moses Lake so he could perform a little minor surgery on me. Four years ago I had a cyst on my tailbone removed and two days before we got married it returned! Luckily, he was able to remove it for us since I don't have health insurance right now. My sweet husband has been nursing me back to health. He has to change the dressing on the wound twice a day. As we were getting off the freeway to get to our house, Michael told me it sounded like we had a flat tire. We pulled into our driveway and got out of the car and the back tire was flat! Despite it all we are just so happy to be married and to have each other. We're in Spokane and are so excited to begin our journey here as Mr. and Mrs Lightner!!!

Loved It!



My mom and I took a break from all of our last minute wedding business to see 27 Dresses. It was your typically chick flick, but I loved every minute of it!

Here comes the Bride!

MY DRESS IS HERE!!!! I'm so happy! I feel like I'm really getting married. Having the dress just makes me feel complete! It came in on Friday and it fit perfectly. I thought it might need some alterations but the length was perfect with my shoes.

My sister and mother in law to be had a bridal shower for me today(pictures to come). I didn't want to have a bridal shower because I don't like attention, but I'm glad they talked me into it. A few of my favorite gifts...the bakers edge from my mommy and a belgian waffle maker from my sister in law. Thanks for everything!

14 DAYS AND COUNTING!!!!!!

Meet Bridezilla!!!

The wedding day can't come any sooner. I have been very calm and collected until today. I had my first meltdown. I ordered my wedding dress in August. They said it would be here no later than December 20th. I was ok with that. They figured it would probably be in around Thanksgiving. Before Christmas I called to see if it was in. No word on the dress. After Christmas we went into the bridal store and they told me the dress was at the warehouse and should be here in the next few days. Today, a week later, they call and tell me they can't find the dress! The girl tells me not to stress because they are stressing enough for me. An hour later they call and tell me they have located the dress in China and are seeing if it can be air expressed in time!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!!!!!!!

I just want to be married and snuggled up in a blanket with the love of my life. I don't want to worry about the dress, the food, or the flowers another second of my life!
