The Future

Like most college seniors I'm terrified to graduate!! Even saying I'm a college senior scares me to death!

I was so scared that I was going to hold off a semester and graduate in December, but recently my plans have changed.

Now I'm graduating in April.

APRIL!!!!!!

I have never known anything, but school.

I haven't had a summer off school since middle school. Literally.

I am even more terrified that I'm graduating with a degree in a field that I have no interest in working in.

All these questions arise when I start to think about the future.

What if JRP and I can't find jobs in the fields we want to be in? What if we can't find jobs at all?

Are we going to stay here? move out state? out of the country?

What does the next 5, 10, 20 years look like for us?

How are we going to pay off all our school loans?

This is hilarious to me and probably most of you because getting married doesn't scare me at all! I mean why would it I'm marrying the love of my life, my best friend, and my brother in christ. Even though I know everything is not always going to be perfect. I know we will fight, I know we will get annoyed with each other or hurt by te other. I also know that I can get through anything with him and that I love him more than I ever thought you could really love someone.

Luckily I have JRP by my side, I don't know what I would do without him!

Details, details, details

Any good costume designer will tell you that everything is in the details.....EVERYTHING. From the feather on a hat to the lace on a petticoat. Its all important and it brings the whole concept into view.

Being an aspiring costume designer and planning a wedding, the details are driving me CRAZY!!

I can't fall asleep till 3 hours after I go to bed because I'm thinking about everything that needs to get done!! About everything I could do or should do or need to do. I make to do lists in my dreams, not to mention the nightmares about not having everything finished!

We are coming down to the end, a month and a week...Let me repeat that A MONTH and A WEEK PEOPLE!!!! 38 days!!! Thats insane, amazing, exciting, and wonderful all rolled into one!!

I am beyond excited to marry JRP!!!! And really marrying him is all that matters!

I just can't tame the designer or the perfectionist in me nor my mother who is just like me, not mention my father!!

Hurry up August 14th!!!!!!!!

Transformation from Me to We

Today I realized that I am no longer a "Me"

I now say things like:

"We are so glad that you will be able to make it."

"We would love to come."

"We can't, We have a prior engagement." (Apparently I also speak more refined when I answer as We)

I also sign both of our names on thank you cards and forms.

I RSVP to events for 2 instead of 1

I think and talk to JRP about how something will effect us before I make any type of choice.

I love the journey that we are on and I can't wait for our future! (See I did it again!)

I don't think I could have picked a better person to be a "We" with! :)

Heathrow & JRP

Great Day

Thank you for all the votes!! We are going with pillows, now I just have to buy or make the perfect pillows, but I'm already making so much I might just buy them off Etsy, aka my new addiction which is funny because I use to hate Etsy so much!! I know i know Judge me.

Today is a great day!!!

Invites are done and out!! (RSVP PLEASE!!!)

My dress gets here in 2 weeks!!! Hopefully.

JRP moves into our apartment in a month Which means I get to start decorating and putting everything together!!!

My sister gets here in a Month and a week!!!!

JRP and I get married in a Month and a half!!!!

Wow, I have so much to do!!!!

I will not get stressed out, I will not get stressed out, I will not get stressed out!!!!!!!

Kittens!

Here are our FOUR brand new baby kittens!!! We just got them yesterday!!! We haven't named them yet we are waiting for my baby cousins to get here tomorrow!!



They are still too small to live outside so their home right now is a tub in my room!

They are a handful, but just so dang cute!

Good thing P is my favorite letter

She's an AMAZING cake decorator!! Right now she may a be a little blog challenged she'll get better!!

If you want to order a cake from her email or comment on her or my blog and I'll get her contact info to you.

Also we got our beautiful toasting glasses back!! Take a look.....



I LOVE them!! Simple, elegant, classy, timeless.

I noticed last night we kind of have a "P" theme going on...didn't mean to do that "P" is just one of my favorite letters I think its so pretty and perfect!! I'm so glad its going to be my last name!

Funny story about changing my last name:
JRP and I had a small, funny spat about this

ME: It's kind of a hassle for me to change my name on everything! You should change your name!

JRP: Um..No

ME: It's 2010 I really don't think I should "have" to change my name....

JRP: When I asked you to marry me, it was implied you would take my last name!

ME: Fine! Let's flip a coin you win I change my name I win you change yours!

JRP: DEAL! I call heads

*Flip coin*

ME: Dang heads, you win, but I'm dragging you around to all the places with me to change my name!

Also, I got JRP's ring engraved sorry I can't tell you what I wrote it's a surprise for him and he occasionally reads this blog key word being occasionally, aka he goes read it after I ask him if he read it or not.

Also vote on my new poll now thats its finally working right!!

Peace out ---<
