Prepare yourself.
I'M GETTING MARRIED THIS MONTH!
Actually in 3 weeks exactly :)
I'm so excited to be Mrs. Peterson and become Logan's wife!
The past month has been full of photoshoots (including our own bridals:)), sickness (both of us), work, and little odds and ends for wedding things. And I have learned a lot about our relationship and myself in the past month. Our announcements came in, we took bridals, tried lots of different cookies, and we did our wedding video with Emily (Logan's little sister).
While we were recording the video, Logan was downstairs as she interviewed me and vice verse so we didn't hear each others answers. I'm not comfortable in front of a video camera; Pictures are just fine, but when it comes to expressing myself and my thoughts in front of a camera, I totally clam up. I know I sound like a cheesey goof ball in my part of it. On the other hand, I know Logan is very natural in front of any camera setting. I'm excited that he has that talent and natural ability.
When we took bridals, he saw me in my dress (and my dress for that matter) for the first time. We blindfolded him and set it up to be able to get his reaction to see me. Well, when I went to lift the blindfold off, Mr. Logan had tied it on a bit too tight. I was trying to take his eyebrows off with it. We got some fun pictures of that and had a good laugh. Then the moment of truth came, he reached behind his head to untie the knot, and let the blindfold fall as the compliments and love flowed from his words and eyes. It was SOO fun to take pictures with him and I'm pumped to have them at the reception!
Enough about wedding plans... Now for some Mr. & Mrs. Petey Adventures :)
We went rock climbing for a date and it was wicked fun.
I'm a total wimp and sometimes it took me a really long time to get to the top, but he was always there at the bottom cheering me on. The last one we climbed up was really hard for me. He had to let me sit down in the middle of the wall because my arms were giving up, but I wanted to make it to the top. I know that is something that will come up in our marriage and life together. There will be times when we want so badly to reach the top, but won't be able to without each other. I need his help, influence, and love in my life to help me become the best I can be.
Yesterday (Friday) we met up when he got off work and went back into Olive Garden to fill my soup and salad craving. We aren't the eat in silence type. We talk, a lot. I started to explain to him about how excited I am to be wifey for real; such as how much I'm looking forward to having a little place of our own for me to vacuum and sweep. That's in all honesty too, and he started laughing at me. We drove across town to go look at a few things form TJ MAXX and Ross.
We seriously laughed all day.
There were these two purple chairs for little girls that were cute for a photography prop and I half considered buying them. I decided to think on it. Well, when we were in line to check out, this old lady came walking up with them and it made me laugh so hard. Then when we were walking out to his car I did something and he told me I was like a five year old (all in teasing and playfulness). So when we got to his car I stood outside the car "pouting," he opened my door from the inside and said all sweet like, "Honey," then in a pretend angry voice, "GET IN THE CAR!!" I honestly started crying it was so funny. Logan is the most chill and non angry person I know making that very unlike him.
A monumental thing happened in our relationship; In the past 10 months of dating, Logan has never farted in front of me. Well, that's crossed off the list and I feel like we can get married now :)
