Bridal Shower Bonanza!

Yes, I just looked up the word Bonanza to see if I was using it in the right context...

bonanza |bəˈnanzə|noun [often with adj. ]a situation or event that creates a sudden increase in wealth, goodfortune, or profits : a bonanza in military sales | [as adj. ] a bonanza year for the computer industry.• a large amount of something desirable : the festive feature film bonanza.

I'd say if anything I've had a sudden increase of fun and Gifts for days!
If getting engaged has taught me anything it is that I have some good party throwing friends & family!These past weeks I have been blown away by how thoughtful people are! I can only hope to be as amazing and thoughtful as my friends (special shout out to the 10 shewolves... TEN! And they're all fun and cute and I could go on for days about how much I love them—anyways...), YW leaders, aunts, cousins grandmas, sisters, and mostly, my Mom. I look up to them all so much. They have gone out of their way to make this engagement extra special.

The best roommates/friends in the world!

Nothin' like a good old fashioned pole dancing Bachelorette party!

Walker Shower!

With two weeks left on the countdown things are getting a little crazy and I'm getting a lot more anxious and excited so I will take any distraction I can get—not that planning isn't already distracting enough—but I felt the need to slip this blogpost in because these are the happy days that I want to remember. I know I know, I'm a journal nerd. 

one month = 31 days!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

the countdown has begun.

—well technically I've been counting down since we got engaged—

but I mean, the FINAL countdown has begun.

I cannot believe that this engagement has gone by so quickly.

4 months down, 1 to go.

It's almost like the closer that it gets, time slows down even more.

We're sending our announcements out this week and then it's

just fine-tuning for the wedding plans until the big day!

(I even threw in some engagement sneak peaks!!)

 

But, most importantly,

  there are only 28 days until I get to see, and hug, and kiss,

and then marry my big spoon, boyfriend, fiance, dreamboat...

you get the point!!!
I.can. NOT.wait

Save the Date!

Oh... did I mention that on February 18th
that I was asked that question that you dream about your whole life?!
Yep!
I'm engaged
and I have never been happier in my life.


So here's the background story—
Cam tricked me into thinking this video was all my idea. Our original plan was to do a video about how we met with two sides of the story. So we both told our story and at the end of my "interview" the adorable Hailey Haugen and her fiance left me alone with the camera so that I could say something personal to Cam.  About half way through my message, Cam crept over to "ask me some of his own interview questions".... you get to see what happened next.
