I love my family!!






I love my family soooo much! Its amazing having them here!! I cant believe how fast the week is going though! I cant believe I get married the day after tomorrow!!! AHHHHH!!! haha. I cant wait though!




We've havent done a whole lot since my familys been here. Its just been good to relax with them, and for Norm to get to know them better.


We went horseback riding yesterday, which was a lot of fun!! My fiance looks hot as a cowboy..haha. We had a big bonfire and bbq here last night too. It was probably the most people we've ever had in our house. The Lyon family came which was fun. We all used to be good friends in NS till they moved to BC. So it was nice to spend some time with them. They're comming to my wedding too, which will be nice.




I have my car back now!! Its so exciting! My dad got here Tuesday night with it. Norms always been really great at letting me use his, but its just different having my own back! Like today, im picking Reta up from the airport, and had told Norm about it, and he was like I dont want to put all those kms on my car. And I was like..I have my own car, so we dont have to!! haha Mom and I are gonna go shopping in the city this morning too. There's so many little last min things I need to get done. We're taking everyone to Banff today too. It will be nice to show them the moutains. And to go back to where Norm took me for our first date!!




So I got the dress situation all figured out! I tried it on again yesterday, and had a total breakdown..haha. Im so grateful for my mom..hha she took charge of the situation. She took it down to some lady in town, and told her it was an emergency! haha So im going today for a fitting, and it will be ready tomorrow. I think that was the last big thing I was stressed out about. I should get going and start my day! The next time I write I'll probably be Mrs. Nelson, how weird is that?!!

Cant wait for 5:30!!!!!!

Can I just say that I am SOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!!!!
Im here at my parent in laws place for the after noon trying to kill time! My family flys in in less than 2 hours and I cant wait!!!! I've missed them sooooooo much!! Its all still so weird, I cant believe they get here today! And that I go through the temple tomorrow, and get married in 5 days!!! AHHHHHH!!! Its all too much to take in..haha

So I tried on my wedding dress the other day for the first time since I bought it...:s. I thought that with my crinoline and heals it wouldnt need to be hemmed..but its still an inch too long!! im totally freaking out and trying to find someone who can hem it for me in 5 days!! ahhhhhh!!! Other then that most of the wedding stuff is all set. I had my 2nd trial run with my hair today, I love it! My sister in law is amazing!!! Im so happy with it!!!

We just realized that with the rush hour traffic we need to leave early...i'll write more later!

Im not good at this blog thing right now...








I cant believe I let it go so long without writing an entry. I keep meaning to, then get side tracked with wedding stuff!

So I quit my job today!! haha. I'd had enough. I did enjoy it for the first little bit, but can I just say, some people are gross! You wouldn't believe the kinda stuff I had to deal with cleaning room..its was just gross!! I also had to clean the bar bathrooms last week, and that was disgusting!!! There was dried up puke on the floor that I had to soak then clean..blah! So even though I really liked the girls I worked with, it felt good to walk in there and quit! haha My sister in law is opening a restaurant just a block away from me, so im working there now full time as a waitress. I think i'll like it a lot better!!

Im getting soooooooooo excited!!! My family gets here in like 5 days!!! I havent seen them for 4 months! And I cant wait!!! Norm keeps saying that im more excited to see them then get married, and I have to admit that right now, yea I am! haha

All the wedding stuff is pretty much done now. Im just working on my flowers, the sideshow, and music right now. The easy stuff:) I cant believe our big day is getting sooooooo close! It doesn't really seem real yet!!

So Norm and I have a new little niece!! She is sooooooooooooo cute!! and tiny!! Kinda makes me want one, but not really.haha. I can wait a while:)

Norm got his firefighters uniform tonight, he looks way hot in it! haha There's just something about a boy in uniform! haha.

I should get to bed...im not used to working early anymore, and I have to be up early tomorrow! I'll try to update more often!!

Sick of invitations!!!







I need to take a break from doing wedding invitations before I go crazy!! haha So I thought i'd update a bit!!

Things are going good here. I have a job now. Im working at the Vulcan Country Inn as a waitress and housekeeper. Im really enjoying it!! I havent been working a lot of hours this week cause we're not fully booked. But its a good thing, cause it gives me time to get all this wedding stuff done.

Norm is living in town now!!! He's pretty much here all the time except at night, when he sleeps at his aunts. He started his new job on Monday too. He's loving it! He works 6:30 till 5:30 everyday. He's been framing a house this week, so is outside all day. I have to admit that im kinda jealous of the hot tan he's getting. I might have to go do some tanning before the wedding! haha. I cant believe that we're getting married a month from today!! Time is going soooooo fast!! I cant wait!!


Last weekend was a lot of fun!! We all just relaxed a lot. Went swimming in the pool..and had a few bbqs and bonfires. I'll upload some pics of it! I love that even though i've only known Norms family for like 3 months that I already feel super comfortable with them. Its like i've known them my whole life. It was nice having my house full of people!! Omg, guess what?! Norms sister and husband brought us out our wedding gift last weekend too!!! They had told us before that they bought us an air conditioner...so we were sooooo excited about that, since its been sooooo hot here!! And so when they showed up, they had not only gotten us that, but they got us a huge BBQ, and patio set as well!! We were in total shock! and so grateful!! Our backyard is so cute now! and our house is nice and cool! Its awesome!!!


So Norms letting me take his car, (which is totally his baby) into Calgary by myself today!! AHHH! haha. I have a few errands to get done, and them in picking Lydia up at the airport! She's comming to stay with me for a few days before she goes to EFY. Im excited!!! I've been missing NS a lot this week! So it'll be nice to see someone from there!!

I should go finish these invitations, and clean the house, and make supper for when my boy gets home..haha
