So...the day is swiftly approaching. In only 12 days, Chris and I will be married for time and all eternity. Pretty awesome, huh? It was really great to come home to Chris after being in Michigan for two weeks, and the time since then has flown by. I started working fulltime as an accountant with the company I interned with last summer. It's called AgReserves, and they oversee the investment farms and ranches of the LDS church. It was pretty awesome to receive that first big paycheck! In the meantime, Chris was studying super hard for his exam to become licensed as an insurance sales agent for New York Life. He took the test last Wednesday and passed with flying colors! I'm really proud of him. :)

Wedding planning has also taken off in the past couple weeks. I had three more showers when I got home, which were all absolutely wonderful. Thanks goes to Natalie and the rest of the girls for the great dinner and party that we had! I also got my bridal photos taken last Thursday, which I'll give a sneak peek of in a minute! I LOVE THEM!! I'm really glad Natalie went with me to do those. We had such a great time and she was a really great help with everything! Chris and I also have put in orders for many last minute wedding things. Our guest book is one of them. Thanks goes to Mallorie for getting us the website and everything for that! I put in the order on Tuesday and we already got the book!

Things are all falling into place. The cake is ordered, menu decided, guest book, serving set, and party favors acquired. Now we just need the next couple of weeks to go by quickly! My family is all coming in a week from tomorrow and I'm super excited for them to all be here. My bridesmaids will all soon be here also, as well as Chris' sister Ashley. Lots of fun time are coming up, and we're excited for all of you, our greatest friends, to be a part of it too!

We have a blog!!

So I've known for a while that I wanted to create a blog for Chris and me, but I hadn't gotten around to it until now. It's boring right now because I don't have a clue what I'm doing, and currently I'm at home in Michigan with dial-up internet, so I'll need some help!!

Just a brief synopsis on the life of Chris and Ashley: WE'RE READY TO BE MARRIED!!! Yeah, that about sums it up. All the planning, decisions, parties, and attention are fun and all. But it's time to get it over with and start our lives together. Especially because these two weeks apart while I've been in Michigan have been pretty tough. We're ready for married life, enough said.
