Birthday Time!



Happy Birthday to my Kristofer!!! Well today is Kristofer's birthday, and I am sad I can't be with him. So I made it special! I sent him a package last week. I hope it gets there today! That would be sweet. So i mailed him some random things he wanted and I made him some cookies. But his big surprise is a t-shirt from the Gators big win last football season. For those of you who don't Kristofer loves the Gators! Here is what it is...

And then I had him made a Personal Cookie Cake that says Happy Birthday Kris. And Also I am ordering him pizza and sprite. After he gets out of class I am going to send him on a scavenger hunt to pick up his surprises! how fun!!

I love him so much, and I can't wait to spend days like these together after we are married. 

I love you KRIS!

Check!

Well slowly but surely we are getting more things accomplished. We finally ordered our invitations on Friday. I've started our guest sign-in book scrapbook, and it's looking pretty sweet so far. Although there is still lots to be done, as always. Things are getting checked off our huge checklist day by day. Which is good because we are THREE MONTHS AND COUNTING TODAY! how exciting. I will also be home in a little less that three weeks to help finish up the plans there. It will be a splendid trip with a little trip to the beach with just my mom, sister, and best friend for some R&R. I can't wait.

Little "nuggets" about us...


Well. I thought I should tell everyone a little bit more about us. I will start with Kristofer, because you probably already know about me. He is 23, he will be 24 on the 23rd of this month. He served a mission in Argentina, and he loved it. He has two brothers and a sister, and two nephews who are adorable. He attends the University of Alabama, majoring in finance and spanish. He loves the Florida Gators, he even bought me a sweatshirt so I can support. He loves to play soccer. He played for SVU for a year before his mission.  He likes to play most sports, and watch most sports on T.V. as well. He plays the guitar and sings if you are special. I tell him all the time he should write me a song, he won't do it. :( He's very well mannered, and a wonderful gentleman. I couldn't have gotten anyone better. 

Now for me, well I am 20, still a kid I know. I will be 21 on August 30th. I grew up an Army brat, so I have lived and traveled constantly since I was little. It will be a change to actually be settled, we will see how I adjust to not having change. Right now, I am attending Utah State University majoring in Family Life Studies. After I move home to be married, I will be able to finish my degree on-line. I try to be active, right now i am taking a spinning class and it kicks my butt every week. I like to run too, except not in Utah in the cold and elevation, not so fun. I can't wait to be in Alabama again for good, that's where I call home. 

Kristofer and I met officially in May 2008, short dating period, long engagement. We are weird, we know. We knew very fast that we loved each other so much, and we wanted to get married. Friends and family were all taken back about how fast, but that didn't change how we felt. Well come to find out over the past few months, our paths have crossed at various points over the past five years through mutual friends and what not. Crazy how life works out isn't it? We're goofy as can be, we are constantly laughing and smiling like little school kids. We spend every moment possible together when we are in the same city, we are best friends too. We don't care where we are as long as we are together. Cheesy...I know, but very true!


We are getting married on May 16th in the Birmingham, Alabama LDS Temple. We can't wait, we really wish it was tomorrow. We are currently 2000 miles apart, and it sucks very badly. It could be tons worse though, and we are very grateful for technology and webcams :) We web-cam everyday for hours on end and its wonderful. I wouldn't trade it for anyting, except maybe being physically next to me. Well if you have any questions, just ask. 

100 Days and Counting!

Today is 100 days until the best day of my life! I am so excited i can hardly handle it, and I think I get more excited everyday. I'm not on top of the planning stuff, but I am getting there slowly. I FINALLY have a dress, and I love it. Mostly all we have left are the little details. I'm a big picture kind of girl though, so this is a bit harder. I am also a little bit indecisive and I suffer from decidophobia (and yes this is a real thing, I learned about it in Resource Management). But as time is getting closer, I've gotten a little more nervous to get everything done, so maybe I will kick into over drive soon and knock it all out. :)
