13 Days!

As I sit here at work, with nothing to do.. All I can think about is July.

-Marrying the love of my life.
-Seeing friends and family I haven't seen in YEARS.
-Seeing friends and family I haven't seen in months.
-Having the time of my LIFE at the party which will be.. My wedding.
-My first trip to Vegas
-Spending a week in Cancun with my new husband.

Ahh July, get here faster. Please.

Puppy Update

Our application for Eli was turned down.. They didn't say why, but I am assuming that it's because we don't have a vet out here to refer us.. I am so bummed, I cried when Erik sent me the email. But I guess it just means I should continue the search for our new addition, and hopefully Eli gets a new, happy, safe home soon.

Summer 2010

Ahhh! 27 DAYS! I can't believe how close it is.
I am soooooo pumped to get married, go to Utah, Vegas, CANCUN, see my entire family and all my friends! This summer truely is going to be the best summer EVER.
Not to mention my birthday is the week after we get home from Cancun, AND we are getting a puppy!! {yay!}

So.. my dad turned 60 this summer! {June 2nd} and my siblings threw him this awesome party, that I sadly missed. The worst part about living so far from UT, is missing all the monumental things like that. I HATE IT. But anyways..
Here is the handsome birthday boy. I love him so much!


Here are my nieces and nephews eating at his birthday dinner. (Cutest kids EVER.)


And here is Eli...
My great friend Whitney knew I was looking to adopt a puppy. And found the EXACT breed I want, and semi close to where I live! (Upstate NY, but only a short road trip away.)
I want him soooo bad guys, you have no idea. He is so damn precious!! We have a lot going against us, because this shelter is SUPER strict about who adopts their dogs.. But pleeeease keep your fingers crossed for us!!
Btw.. if he isn't too used to being called Eli, we might change his name to Samson :)

Yeah I suck at this.

So not a lot has been going on lately, I just suck at updating this thing. Haha.
Well lets see.. I think we have about 47 days until the wedding! Crazy. Time is seriously flying so fast! I just went to Utah this past weekend to have my family bridal showers (one with Erik's fam and one with mine.) Both went very well, and I was spoiled. I also met up with our wedding planner and made some final decisons. Now I feel like SO much stress has been lifted off my shoulders, it's awesome!
It was SO good to see the family and spend time with my sisters and nieces and nephews. I miss them all so much. I can't wait until the wedding when I can see my WHOLE family, and all of my friends. (Since my trip was so short, I missed seeing tons of people.) It's freakin hard to see everyone while you're out there. I used to worry that people would get mad at me, but I can't worry about that. Because I can't be in a million places at one time. I swear, after being in Utah, I could use a vacation. Hahaha, it's just so busy, and non stop the entire time. (But you know I love it.)
Anyways! I know I gave you all a sneak peek at our engagements.. Well here are some more!!







We have lots more, but I am too lazy to resize them all to fit in the blog. I freakin hate how my blog cuts off my pics! Does anyone know how I can fix that??

I can't wait to marry Erik! And I definitely can't wait for our honeymoon...

Wedding plans...

I seriously cannot believe that we're getting married in 76 days!! I swear it was just yesterday that we set the date.
I am so lucky to have Erik. He is so sweet, caring, affectionate, funny, loving, and just plain amazing. I love him so much! :)

Well.. I was going to post some pics of all the awesome goodies I just bought for the wedding. But I figured I shouldn't show every part of my wedding before it happens! Haha.

I bought CUTE yellow shoes that match our color theme, an awesome awesome garter set, cute cake topper, and a guest tree that I have been in love with since the first time I saw it. I can't wait to show everyone! I am so excited for the wedding. Everything totally screams Erik and Liz! Yeah, it might not be "traditional" but it's us. And that is alllll that matters :)

Sneak Peek..

Erik might just kill me for this.. (Just kidding)
But I am too excited to not give you all {a small} glimpse of our engagements :)




Sorry if they cut off a little, I wish my pics didn't do that!

Crying at my desk, what else is new? ;)

I cannot stop reading this

I started from the very beginning. (June 2004) And I am reading every post. I love this blog, and I love this guy. Even though he makes me cry every 5 seconds.
