Our Growing Baby

Long distance is hard

Having your fiancee live in Rexburg while you live in Provo is rather difficult. And not just because texting all day doesn't make up for not being able to see his face and not just because every time we have to say goodbye I want to cry, but also because it is very hard to make wedding decisions and find housing when you can't go look at stuff together. But, we will survive and it will all be worth it, right? Right.
So here's the wedding update...
  • Went to Arizona last weekend and got to go see the reception site. It's gorgeous and we could not be more excited about where we're having the reception!
  • Reserved the temple for May 26, 2012 at 2:15 P.M. :)
  • Bought the wedding dress and shoes
  • Found Tommy's suit
  • Decided on a dress for the flower girls (shout out to Auntie M for her sewing skills that will make that beauty possible)
  • Found a site for the brunch (shout to the Allen's and their awesomeness)
  • Possibly have found an outfit for the bridesmaids
  • Possibly have found ties for the groomsmen
So, as you can see, we are chugging along. Tommy and I also spent our weekend together looking for a place to live in the summer and creating our wedding playlist and pictures for our wedding video. We haven't found where we are going to live quite yet, but we are liking College Park right now and we will see if one of the others we didn't get to see this weekend can top that one or not.
Anyway...there's the update! Hope you all enjoyed it :)

So where is College Park? Are you guys going to move to Idaho or stay in Provo, or neither?
We can't wait for you to come see your new bathroom too:)
Also, I'm so glad wedding plans are falling into place and I wish you guys didn't have to be so far apart too. Love, Sarah

So many decisions, but I've been impressed at your making them, it can be stressful, but it is good practice for the rest of your married life because the decisions continue to pile on :-) I think Jill and Glen lived at College park. It was nice, and she loved her ward.

yes, you are doing great at the planning so far! I have a great lead on flowers, so call me!!
oh, and imagine your fiance being in puerto rico for two years, no texting allowed!

You know where you should live summer?

Heather Cove. Ha ha ha. (Seriously, though.)

You forgot to mention that you found someone to do your hair!
Melissa: "Hey Amy, remember that time I tried to do your hair for prom?"
Amy: "Yeah, it was a disaster!"
Melissa: "Probably the worst hair I've ever seen."
Kimberly: "Hey Mel-Mel, will you do my hair for my wedding?"

So hard to be apart at a crazy busy time, but it definitely will be over soon!! Sounds so exciting though and it's makes the weekends pretty awesome right?

I forgot to tekk you that if you have videos for the wedding video send them too.
