Married

Saturday was the most wonderful day of my life. But it was so weird...the whole day was such a blur. Especially the ceremony. The ceremony was supposed to start at 2 and I got to the church at 1:45 from my hair appointment. I frantically came running in and...no one was there. It was something I have always pictured...getting ready for my wedding...all my friends around me helping me. I walk into the room and no one was even there. The flower girls hair wasn't done, my dress was wrinkled, my lip stuff never made its way to my bad...AH! I was ready to kick someone! Eventually people started trickling into the room to help me frantically. ( I guess it was a crazy morning for everyone!) We got an iron out and ironed my dress while it was on me...and then the maid of honors flower ball fell apart! Oh what a mess! But then they moved me over to a room in the church...and I saw my dad in a tux for the first time in my life. I almost lost it there. He looked so good! Everyone suddenly seemed so calm. I heard the music start...My heart was pounding and I was trying to think of anything to keep me from crying. My dad noticed I was trying not to cry so he started telling me a funny story about the last time he wore a tux. Then Becky Jones came in and asked if I was ready. She closed the doors and the music paused. When the doors opened, This huge rush of energy overwhelmed me! I was in a room full of people who loved me...and it was as if I didn't recognize a single face. The only thing I saw...was George. He was smiling so wide...just gazing as if he was stunned. My dad and I were both shaking...I couldn't hold back any longer...I just started crying. It was the most beautiful moment! And even though the aisle was only about 15 feet long, I felt like I was walking forever... When I got up there, everything calmed down. I still am not quite sure what anyone said. I do remember my bouquet was sooo heavy! My arm was shaking through the whole ceremony.


Being married is such an out of body experience... I just remember staring at George and not thinking about anything else except..."Oh my gosh...this is my wedding!" because it's so weird to be in that spot...especially if you have seen it in so many movies...it was just...sureal.


I am not going to lie...these past few months were probably the worst months of my life. But for those 7 hours on my wedding day...EVERYTHING was worth it. I could not have asked for a more beautiful day...The weather was perfect...the people were perfect...George is perfect.

My biggest worry about that day was George's mom...I didn't think she was going to enjoy the day but I think she even had a great time...which was just so wonderful!


I can't believe I am married! But I just can't wait for the rest of mine and Georges life! We had a perfect begining to the rest of our lives.

One thing George and babies have in common.



So my cousin Graci just had her first baby on May Day...and I was a little worried about being there for the whole experience because I thought it would make me want to have kids soon.
As effortless as Graci made it look to have a baby...and as BEAUTIFUL as little perfect Harmony Grace is....I am so glad I am not yet at that stage of life yet. I am so excited to get married though. Everyone keeps asking me if I am nervous....Being nervous would mean that I am worried about something or unsure of something...but it's the exact opposite. I have never been so sure about anything else in my life. Before when George and I were dating....I always said to myself..."I would be the stupidest person in the world to not marry this man" Obviously i'm not the stupidest person in the world. :)




The other day he was playing guitar and he was really bummed because he thinks he can't sing. I went up to him and said...God didn't have enough room to make you a good singer because you're so perfect at everything else. He is going to be the most amazing husband and someday a wonderful father. I can't wait for the 16th to come. It will be the happiest day of my life!! :)
