wedding tid bits.

colors:

soft yellow. soft grey.

lemons. lemons. lemons. 
chocolate fountains. 

wedding dress rule #1: 
go with your instincts. I almost signed my

name (life) to a dress and as I held the pen, 

I broke down and cried. It wasn't the dress for me. 

My sister is throwing me a bridal shower.

Kent will come 4 days before the wedding.

3 or 10 bridesmaids? 

seriously, I can't decide.

date: 6/16/2012

my fiance is cute. 
cuter than yours. 

kansas city temple. 

being in love is so, so great.
being engaged is so, so horrible.
you always hear that and it is always true.

I can't wait to always be with him.

it's only been 3 days since we have left each other and I feel like it's a struggle to keep the communication good. There is a time zone difference and our families are busy. only 46 more to go. 

Last night was the first night I was comfortably able to sleep in my own bed! I basically live in a dark dungeon small room with little air that circulates (and there is usually a sweaty seven year old  plus a dog next to me) but with the window cracked, them gone and a fan right in my face I felt awesome all night.

It's hard to think about getting out of bed now and going on a run. The finac is making me feel guilty because he is going on a run. 

I should at least get up.

oh brother

I miss this guy.

lots.

Tonight for Family Home Evening we tilled the garden with some lovely's in our ward.

 Shoveling is hard stuff

My family is awesome! It's so good and so fun to be home.

Wanna know what it's like to share a bathroom with a brother?

Fun stuff!

Can't wait to share one with a husband.

yayyyyy

This is what my life has been lately:

I <3 skype

one zero zero

days until we are married

(ahhhhhhhhh!!!)

When I don't know

I have officially decided something very cool. When I don't know what to blog about I will talk about our daily photo from a couple days ago. brilliant, right?

Family Home Evening is something Kent and I enjoy.

Kent enjoys MY FHE so much that he skips his :) 

On Monday we walked into my fhe brother's apartment to the smell of brownies. We played backwards charades and Kent was the lead roll every single time! The game is where you reenact a scene from a movie with all your team mates except one, then the one person guesses what the scene was. Kent was *so cute and played along so well.  My favorite was when he was Simba and he held onto the couch and then fell around a group of hyenas. 

I find that very attractive.

Kent went and dropped me off today and on his way home he saw our footprints in the snow. While going through his phone to find a recent pic to post he said, "Oh yeah! I took that one and that is how we are going to be for the rest of our life - Walking beside each other."

I think everything is cute (*proof in above paragraph), BUT THAT WAS SO CUTE!!!!

adiosss amigoososss

Here are some pics from our little excursion: 

photo of the day: http://kentandanna.tumblr.com/ 

 The roads were great on the way there! ...coming home was another story.

Chick-fil-a HAD FLOWERS ON THE TABLES! It was our 2ndish time eating at a chick-fil-a and we were IMPRESSED. The people were so nice, food was good and ambiance was fun.

 (photo from on the way home at 10pm)

Driving home we couldn't even see the road in front of us!! Occasionally we went to the side and just hoped and prayed we would make it okay. And we did :) Kman is such a good little driver.

After the day was over and the car/our bodies were safe and sound, we had to walk back to my house. I borrowed Kent's shoes because my little moccasins cannot handle the snow.

Earlier in the day I made the paper stick to the wall with magic (paper is not being held up with pen). This is Kent in IF trying on a 12 dollar sweater that he purchased!! He looks so gooood.

The purpose of going to the mall in IF was to find engagement picture clothes.

When we got back to my house, we had a little fashion show to decide what to wear for the engagements. 

Here are some pictures from that:

We liked it... but I looked too dressy and he looked too casual

So I conformed:)

New sweater!

These are 2 different blue shirts I am wearing...but I think we decided to go with the orange one.     

Maybe I'll wear a coat?

Fun times ahead :) We are SO CRAZY EXCITED for these pictures because then we will be thiiiiiis much closer to our wedding date! Happy Friday!xox anna
   

  

 I can't wait to give my kids a disposable camera because I feel like I'll develop pictures similar to these :) 

Saturday night Kent picked me up to go to a valentines dinner & dance! I secretly wanted to go with him last year (when we were just friends) - I'm glad we could go this year. It would have been so fun but awkward last year. 

This is us at dinner - looking all cute 'n stuff

 The right way to eat

 yummm

I made him take the napkin off and then he did this and he was for serious. 

After eating the WHOLE PLATE (so stuffed) we played with the squishy things in the vases :) 

This is right before I took a video of him drinking 

 Oh hey Derrick (Kent's brother) who broke the vase

 Waiting in line for our fancy picture :)

During the dance we got to dance swing, fox trot, waltz and slow romantic dancing. It was seriously so fun. During the tengo (which we have NO idea how to dance to) Kent made up his own moves. It was so fun and great just dancing for fun. We ended on the song "So she Dances" by Joshy-G. (*claire:) It was so crowded on the dance floor. We left the building and danced in the rain - it was pretty cute. 

We then went and swung on the swing in the gardens because it's something we have always wanted to do. 

I love Kent Buys :) We have fun together.

ps:

fun date coming soon. stay tuned.
