I knew this would happen....

I just discovered a gigantic zit on my face.... I'd post a picture,
but I'll spare you the grossness. Here's the deal... I rarely get
zits.... I've been blessed with a relatively clear complexion, but I
KNEW that wouldn't be the case when it counts.... In case you didn't
know, I'm getting married in five days. Anyway, I am half humiliated
to admit that I don't know what to do.... Do you pop it? Do you put a
potato on it. Or toothpaste? Oh my world.... My mom would be out of
town.

If you get bored, and feel the need to get your wedding fix, I guarantee you I have something you can do..... Just saying.

Should we or shouldn't we?

I was in the airport a couple of weeks ago, and I saw some interesting people. I don't know if my wedding radar was up or what, but I saw many "honeymooning" couples. One of them had mickey mouse ears with a top hat and minnie mouse ears with a veil.... Others just had a little luggage tag on their carry on labeled "honeymoon".... Another couple had t-shirts with "Just Married" in giant print. So I was thinking.... Are we supposed to buy giant t-shirts and wear some sort of sign saying that we are on our honeymoon? Or will people be able to just tell from the glow on our faces and look in our eyes....... AND will we be more likely to get free stuff if we have cheesy evidence that we are in fact on our honeymoon? Hmmmm....

Some tidbits....

~I am getting married three weeks from Saturday.
~I am ready to be done with wedding stuff.
~I have had ZERO energy for the past week. Today I tried to change that by letting myself sleep until I woke up (at noon). Didn't help. Something must be draining me.
~If one more person asks me where I'm going to live or if Nate and I have jobs yet, I am going to punch them in the face.
~I have a shower this weekend.... That question will come up a lot. I plan on giving very short answers with a very big smile.
~I am waiting for about ten thousand things to fall into place. I HATE waiting.
~I popped a tire on my new car today on the highway.... No idea how. But it wasn't my fault this time. I promise.
~My sister comes in town tomorrow. I can't wait. She will either really stress me out or really calm me down.... We'll see how it goes. But I think a facial is in our near future.
~Other than that, Beware of the Bridezilla, the joblesszilla, the homelesszilla, and the sleepyzilla.... All of which can strike at any time. I am sorry and handling it. Maybe not the way you would, but I'm handling it.
~I am excited for my bridal shower this weekend. I'm hoping it will give me a boost and not make me cry thinking about how all the gifts will go into a storage unit while we live with my parents anyway. Ok.... I think sleepy-homelesszilla is taking over.
~One day, I will look back at this particular post and laugh at myself... probably be embarrassed and completely amazed at God's faithfulness. That's why these things must be documented.

The Five Dollar Foot Long

I don't understand the five dollar foot long phenomenon. Don't get me wrong. I love subway.... but they keep telling me the Five Dollar Foot Long thing is going on. Maybe I'm taking it for granted.... but don't act like I'm going to miss it if I don't go right now to get my five dollar foot long.... because it's always going on....

Should I or Shouldn't I?

I have a shower next weekend. I'm really excited about it. But I've been cheating and checking my registries everyday... I'm trying to decide if that's allowed or not. Or if it would be fun not to. What an ethical dilemma.

This time next month....

.....I will be Mrs. Nathan Aucker!! Oh my. I am completely humbled and about to jump out of my seat I'm sooo excited! Nate is STILL in Baltimore.... I miss him very much. I can't wait for the day when we get to end each day together. And maybe when we have our own place to live. THAT will be exciting, and may not be happening for a while.... But who doesn't love my parents house? I sure do. :) Anyway.... Welcome to my wedding world... (Like you haven't had to deal with it yet)

RSVP cards! My mom and I race to the mailbox on an almost daily basis. It's like Christmas to us... and I'm sure a sight to behold.


Today, I officially deemed the dining room the "wedding room".... It does not look as pretty and organized as my friend Kristin's wedding room was.... But I'm working on getting it together.

San Diego!

The Monsters finished their race!! They ran really well. We are so proud of them. We also had a lot of fun together. Many happy memories were made!
