Today started off pretty rough (lost a friend to cancer) but the day got better with time... I have 3 more bridesmaids! I am so lucky that everybody has said 'yes' so far, and I am ecstatic about who is in my party! I asked my cousin Laurel on Sunday, and today I asked two very close friends from 2nd and 3rd grades, Megan and Sarah. :) Two more girls to ask, but Ryan and I just have to catch them!
Tonight was really nice as well. My mom and I met Megan and her mom for dinner. It has been a year since we've seen them and it was great to catch up. Everyone seems to be doing well and I can't believe how adult like everyone is becoming! I also talked to Sarah tonight and she's busy in Las Vegas and is on the verge of finding a job leading to Cirque. So exciting! Can't wait to have these girls in my wedding. :)
That's it for now, time for bed.

Wedding Colors!
We have our wedding colors! It was funny, my mom brought home a bouquet of gerber daisies and as soon as I looked at them they matched the idea of colors that I had. They are fall like, yet still incorporate pink like I've always wanted.

25th Anniversary
I love the thought of marriage. Tonight we threw my parents a surprise 25th wedding anniversary party. It turned out to be really great; lots of family and fun, and as a bonus it was great that our out of town family members were able to make it! The party was very fun, and I am so fortunate that my aunt and grandpa were there to help out so much with everything. It was so cute to see my mom's face when they came in for the surprise, she couldn't look at anybody! I'm pretty sure they were surprised. :)
Ryan and I are lucky to have parents that have been married for 25+ years, it's promising to know that marriage can be so sweet and loving and that it's so exciting to be married for so many years. There is obviously no doubt in my mind that we will lead a long and healthy marriage, but to be surrounded by loving marriages that last for many years makes our relationship that much better.
As far as wedding planning goes, not much more has been established. Actually, nothing at all. I have been so tied up with school it's not even funny. I swear, sometimes I have to remind myself to breathe. The week that I go away to be a camp RN will be nice.. I'm going to bring some bridal and wedding magazines and am going to start to come up with some stuff (colors, dresses, etc). Oh, I lied! We do have a few more updates. My brother Joe is going to be a groomsman, and my cousin Jacob will be our ringbearer (or, as he said, "I get to be a ringbarrow for two weddings!"). More people to be asked in the next couple of weeks, yay!
