Dali is my inspiration..... sometimes.... okay when it comes to mustaches..... but not weddings....

My Dali and me! So I learned how to make a little heart today during lunch today at work.  I self taught.... myself...... to crochet. Picking up bits from others YouTube etc. But today I learn to make something besides a rectangle-ish object. I was so happy, it was a ton of fun to get together with the ladies and tie ourselves in knots :)

A Few Wedding stuffs!!! 

I've been writing a list of everything we need and everything that has been done and now I'm trying to update it. Whew almost there. Just have to add a few things and buy a few more things..... and sew... yes sew.... I'm sort of making my own wedding dress....

I'm excited thought this should be sort of the final product. I have a really good frame going on, just need to add more layers to the bottom, bustle it and make a belt.

I am so proud to be wearing my Blondie's veil, I've always loved it. When finished I'm not sure if I'll wear it like this, but I'm looking  at different hairstyles to attach it to, but either way it's beautiful.

SHOES!!!!

I am currently watching for these on ebay... I would Love to have them!!!!!

My Bridesmaids, probably a little something like-a dis

Our colors are gray and yellow.

And finally collecting/buying quart-sized jars for center pieces. The Dude is wanting to make little boxes for them to stand up on so they are taller. :) I think the lemons will be just beautiful!!

And that's about all I've got for now :) I've designed the wedding programs and invites. I've asked one of my beautiful bridesmaid's, who's also an artist, to paint us a tree so we can have a tree thumbprint guestbook, I'm really excited about that. The Dude came up with that idea. We are making our own food and THERE WILL BE ICEE MACHINES!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!  I'm excited. 

My Dude made me smile yesterday, he was excited in 4 months he gets a wife and new cooking pans! 

Well heck who could ask for more! HA HA

Lot's of tulle and actin' like a fool :P

October 2014 I was a scarecrow for Halloween :D

November 2014 Would turn out to be the best birthday yet! I turned 31! Here is me and my Blondie :)

My mom and Dad FINALLY got me an Ice cream maker I've ben asking for an ice cream maker FOR-EV-ER!!!

See this beautiful view? It scared the crap out of me and became one of my favorite places in the whole world all at once. My Dude took me to Kansas City for my birthday the first place we went was the WW1 museum, it was really neat, but I could tell he was very nervous or didn't feel well. He finally got me to right up in the elevator to the top of the tower. It was crazy windy and my feel felt numb. I was working my way around the tower when he said, Babe, I looked around and there he was on one knee. I will never forget it. 

In his hand he held up the most beautiful ring I've ever seen, it is rose gold with 4 other types of citrine diamonds in it. (the color of my birthstone) He asked me to marry him. YES! YES YES!!!!
June 28th, 2015 He and I will be married 

I will become Mrs. Dude  :D

Wrapping presents..... with my useless helper..... thanks for holding down the furniture Phil....

My mom brought us a nativity, I've always wanted my own :)

Beautiful diamond earrings from my luv :)

We cook ALL the TIME!!

We once made this meatloaf that looked like a dinosaur brain.....

We bought a food saver! We love to freeze meats etc and making to-go salads.

Fresh green beans with garlic and butter!!

I was so excited to make this gluten free bread ( the dude can't have gluten) It didn't rise then  I started to bake it and it did... then it fell... and tasted like booty.... ahhh try again another day....

BUT I am good at making GF pancakes that are pretty amazing.

So then it was Valentine's day and it was wonderful, except both of us got sick ..... :-/ He got me these amazing chocolates that were hand ground and poured. Three different flavors, salt and pepper, coffee and cinnamon and chili pepper. They are so amazing!! I also told him that I would love to tan before the wedding to have a little color. Do you know what that stinker did? He went out and made me a Black Tier member, I can tan on anything I want and I get free spray tans. He takes good care of me. (exclude any cancer stuff, I don't tan all the time, It was pretty sweet)


So guess what you get next??? That's right Wedding Plan stuff!!!!!
Woot!

Lots of love and sprinkles and sweets!
