So here I am entering my last week as a single girl...this time next week it will be all over, I will no longer be Miss Rhein, but Mrs. Goodding. I can't believe that after almost two years of planning for this wedding that it is actually here! It feels so weird to think about that, I still don't think that my brain fully understands that when I say that the wedding is Saturday that I'm actually really really going to be getting married this Saturday! I have never been more excited for anything, and I have never felt more ready for anything in my life!! I feel like I should have so much left to do because I'm so used to having a million things left...all my checklist on theknot.com says is "have fun at your rehearsal" and then "Smile, Relax, and enjoy your wedding day" :) Actually I guess I have one more to add..."memorize your vows" haha I've gotten them written..just need to memorize them..and make it through them without crying ((yeah right))
Friday night was my bachelorette party thrown by my little sister aka maid of honor :) SOO much fun :) I don't think I have ever taken that many shots in such a short amount of time haha. Lessons learned from the evening: Lemon Drop shots are the greatest things ever. Swinging on a swing over a bar is SO FUN. and most importantly, selling suckers for $1 makes you major mulah!! I only had something like 40-50 suckers to sell and ended up coming out with $115 at the end of the night!!! Um why didn't I do that every night until the wedding?!
My aunt from New Jersey is here in town to spend the week with us before the wedding, so thats been exciting! My grandpa comes wednesday, and one of my bridesmaids comes thursday. :) I'm really wishing that I took this week off of work, but we needed the money so I'll survive I suppose, it just would have been nice to have that week off to get things done, but money is money :) Sometimes though I just feel like I'm going to wake up and really have like a year left to go until the wedding or something! It just hasn't completely hit me yet.
One thing that didn't completely hit me until last night was the fact that moving to Texas with Danny meant leaving behind everything and everyone. I mean I know when you move you move away from people, but it just didn't connect with me for some reason until one of my best friends started talking about it at a friend's wedding the other day and we both just started crying. It's going to be so hard moving away from all of our friends and family, and I'm going to have an even more hard time because I won't know anyone other than Danny. He at least has other students he'll study with at grad school. It just won't be the same without my besties close by, even if some are a few hours away now. A few hours is nothing close to 12 hours..
Sorry for the scattered post, my mind feels so jumbled right now!! Next time I blog though I will be a married lady!!! See you on the other side!! :)
