9 more days till the big day!!

I decided it was time to post a blog again. I have just been really busy doing last minute wedding things! I can't believe that it is only 9 days till I am married. I never thought the day would come, and here is it creeping up on me! I really really excited to be married, but also somewhat nervous. I think its the kindoff nervous you get when you start your first day of jr.high or high school, because you don't know what to fully expect, and you don't know what will happen. I know marriage will be great, but I just worry about finances and getting a new job(eventually..I'm procrastinating), and just how it will be to live with just my husband when I have lived at home my whole life..sadly. It just worked out that way because I went to colleges that were all close enough to live at home, and as much as I wanted to move out with roomates, I knew it would be more logical to stay at home and save money. So even moving is a huge transition for me since the only move I have ever made was when I was three years old, and it was about 20 feet! :) So I don't really know what it feels like to be away from the family and to be on my own, and depend on myself and my spouse for everything. So its going to be a fun adventure for me! :) I really love that we started this blogger(as I have probably said a thousand times), because it truly inspires me to be a better person and to look forward to having my own family by looking at all of yours. I have teared up at times just looking at the love that you have for your children and how cute your families are. I am excited to look forward to having kids one day! Well I better get to bed, but If I don't see some of you at the bridal shower(which will probably be Allie since shes in Texas, and Emily since she has her sister in laws wedding) then I will hopefully see you at my wedding reception on the 30th! I love you all and thanks for your friendship! I hope all is well for everybody! And Congrats on being pregnant again Emily!! That is awesome! :)

Jessica-
You're going to LOVE married life. It's a scary transition, but not as scary as it seems in your head! Trust me. Good luck with all the last minute things and I'll see you Saturday!

I agree with Andrea, you will absolutely LOVE it. It is really fun, yes, fun. Being with the person you love all the time is wonderful. Of course you'll have to get used to the new surroundings, but I don't think that will take very long. The best part of being married, I think, is that you don't have to say good night and wait until the next day to see each other. And in the morning, you can snuggle up right next to him, before even fully waking up. It's wonderful.
