7 days!!!

....and single digits until our 1 year anniversary. Cannot believe it. A week from now we'll be celebrating the wedding of our two friends, and celebrating with some fine dining, some relaxation and pampering :)

I found a website that features the "traditional gifts" you should get each other. And I can already tell you, we AREN'T doing this. We'll definitely be spoiling each other with expensive dinners. We'll definitely be opening the amazing bottle of Silver Oak my mom got us, and we'll definitely be eating our cake that I fear will be disgusting but Jarrett assures me will not. But apparently we were supposed to get paper? Yes, paper. Or the 'modern' tradition of PLASTIC?! wtf.

According to this, I don't get diamonds until the 60th. GOOD GOD.

ONE WEEK!

ONE WEEK.
Enough said.

I'm not stressing out or anything. lol. Just lots of little things to do. SO EXCITED!!!!

"Here's what's happening in your neck of the woods"

We've hit single digits ladies and gentlemen! And yknow what that means??? We can start checking the weather. And yes, Al Roker gave me the weather forecast today.

As we all know in New England, a 9 day weather forecast means NOTHING. So at 9 days out, we are looking at isolated thunderstorms and a temperature of 77 degrees. I'm ok with that. Not too hot, potential storm...and frankly, I bet it won't even come close to being that forecast by Sunday so no worries or stress here!

Hey, August has already been better/different than the Farmer's Almanac:

1st-3rd Heavy rainfall. 4th-7th Partial clearing and cooler. 8th-11th Hazy and muggier. 12th-15th Increasingly cloudy skies. 16th-19th Rain moves in from west; possibly heavy at times. Potential hurricane threat along the coast.

ONE MONTH!!!

holy moly batman. wasn't it just yesterday we got engaged? If fact it was one year and 2 days ago that jarrett proposed to me at La Campania.

well as of today, we are one month away (31 days) from the day i have been waiting for since i realized that i wanted to spend the rest of my life with him. (i think i realized slightly before he did, ha!) the countdown has begun.

We have a lot to do, little details to finalize...but both of us are over the moon. I find myself trying on my wedding band at least once a week and daydreaming at work about the day. I'm totally obsessed with people's pictures of other people's weddings and any good facebook wedding stalking i find ;-)

thank you all for putting up me with in advance. I cannot wait for August 16!!!!!!!!
