Update on life...
I bought a wedding dress.
I bought a tiara.
I bought white heels.
Bridesmaids dresses are purchased.
All of my clothes are packed.
All of my scrap stuff--- is packed.
We are moving this weekend, meaning, my dad, mom, and I.
I have lived in the same house my entire life.
This is weird.
And i will be moving again in 4 months(when i get married), 12 houses down from where i am now.
Why unpack? i mean really.
My shoulder hurts a LOT now that i have stopped Physical Therapy.
Moving is stressful, no wonder we haven't moved since i was born.
Jill made me this AMAZING header with pics from our engagement shoot she did while she was here. it ROCKS.
Mike treats me like a queen & i love him more everyday.
We are getting married May 2nd, and that is in 15 weeks. CRAZY.
EDIT: my shoes came in the mail. my tiara came in the mail. my bridesmaids necklaces came in the mail. i bought frames for the tables.

Eventful weekend...
12.21.07
Half day at work.
cleaned the house.
doctor appt.
jill.jim.sage.emerson.amy & tim all came in town.
allergies.headache.blah.
so happy they all came & spent time over here!
12.22.07.
wake up 5:30.
mike picked me up at 6.
drove to the mountains near usery pass.
parked looking over the town lights.
waited to watch the sun rise.
got out of the truck to stand and watch.
He got down on one knee.
i said shut up...(like no way!)
and he said...mindy would you like to be my wife?
i said yes before he could finish.
and he slipped the ring on my finger.
we got back in the truck (it was 34 degrees outside!!)
and we finished watching the sun rise.
once it was up & called my family to tell them the good news :)
we went to breakfast at The Farmhouse in downtown Gilbert...with Amy, Tim, traci & scott to celebrate.
THEN...Traci,Mike and I were getting in his truck to head to Discount Card & Jamba...and i smashed her GOOD foot in the truck door. thankfully it is only bruised. i was a wreck, thinking i broke it and she'd be in a wheel chair.
after icing it...
we headed back out. this time, i sat in the backseat on the drivers side.
we went to mikes parents after that.
then headed to traci's to help her set up for her little shin dig.
on the way home from that, at around 9, we were about a mile away from home, and mikes transmission went out. Thankfully his good friend John, was able to come with a tow strap and pull us back to his Diesel Shop. We ended up getting home around 11:30.
it was a LONG. EVENTFUL day...so i'm on top of the world.
and i found out this morning, my dad accidentally hit the front of my car. My sisters broke the news to me, the didn't wait to do it yesterday!
Basically...i'm the luckiest girl in the world :)

 The Protector You live your life with integrity, originality, vision, and creativity. Independent and stubborn, you rarely stray from your vision - no matter what it is. You are an excellent listener, with almost infinite patience. You have complex, deep feelings, and you take great care to express them. In love, you truly see relationships as an opportunity to connect and grow. You enjoy relationships as long as they are improving and changing. You can't stand stagnation. At work, you stay motivated and happy... as long as you are working toward a dream you support. You would make a great photographer, alternative medicine guru, or teacher. How you see yourself: Hardworking, ethical, and helpful When other people don't get you, they see you as: Manipulative, weak, and unstable |
