Looking back now, it all seems like a blur. and I left to go back to my hometown in TN, arriving around 3am on the 29th of June. It was nice to be back home and visiting my parents, and best friend .

We had a sort of bachelorette party on Saturday July 5th. It consisted of and myself getting our make up done by 's sister. She would be doing it for the wedding and wanted to do a trial run. The boys went out to an arcade while us girls did that, then we met up at Steak N Shake for dinner.

Sunday night I had to say goodbye to so that he wouldn't see me before the wedding. Of course, he waited around to almost midnight before leaving.. lol He didn't want to leave, nor did I want him too. He went to stay at the hotel with his sister and her husband.

The day of the wedding, I woke up and went up to get my nails done, it's the first time I had had the full nail set done professionally - im still getting used to typing with those. And I got my hair trimmed and straightened so it would lay flat.

Everything else seems like just a rush of getting things ready and getting to Rosewood, a beautiful manor home and chapel, lavishly decorated with antiques, on a tall hill surrounded by forest.

I had made fruit and cheese trays for the boys' room and the girls' room, but really didn't have much time to eat, once i got in my makeup had to be done. His sister was freaking out because of the time crunch, and there were several comments about 'pushy' and such.

My mom put a braid in my hair for the veil, and helped me into my dress - although i completely forgot to wear the pettiecoat.. but it was beautiful even without it. Scooby, my parents' poodle was dressed in his tux, and had the ring bearer pillow on his back with our rings. My niece was to lead him down the aisle for us. He was the cutest ring bearer I'd seen.

Kit's mom had gotten lost, and had called my dad to come and get her and take her back to their hotel to get Kit's father. This made them rather late. There wasnt any time to get our 'before the wedding' pic, but soon we were on the way to the chapel.

My cousin made the most beautiful bouquet. White hydrangeas, white roses, baby's breath, and a few other assorted white flowers, with a single pearl each that belonged to both of my grandmothers who had passed, dangling on a pink ribbon.

I walked with my father into the chapel to my chosen wedding march and we begun our ceremony. It was short and sweet, we did a unity sand ceremony - me pouring pink, and kit pouring blue, sand into a larger vase, symbolizing our individualism coming together as one. I am not sure really what else went on, I was watching the whole time, and he had the cutest happy grin on his face. His sister sang our song during the unity sand: A Thousand Years.

Then it was outside for, what seemed endless, amounts of pictures. I also noted that fireflies, and other random bugs seemed to be attracted to the tulle of my gown.

It more lots more picutres then I threw the bouquet, the pink one which Annika had, and oddly enough, she ended up with it again. Then it was off to cut the cake, our cake was 3 tier decorated in pink to white gradient and blue to white gradient. The top tier, which we cut, was blueberry cake, the middle strawberry cake, and the bottom was white cake. We did the traditional smear icing on each others nose, but only a little, and gently.

Our first dance ( and only ) was to Lullaby by Chester See. It really seemed like it was just he and I.

Unfortunately, this is where things go a little awry. I was supposed to have danced with my father after our dance. But Kit's mother had asked my dad to go out to help her decorate the car, so I missed my Father Daughter dance, and was quite upset about that. None of the music that I chose was played at the reception, instead, the music Kit's sister had chosen was played. At this point I was annoyed. I went to change out of my dress, and put on a shorter white summer dress.

By that time, it was already getting late, and most of the time after this I didnt even know where Kit was until we started packing up. Everyone was helping to clean up, except Kit's parents and sister and her husband, they all grouped at a gazebo until it was time to throw bird see. By that point, it was like 1am. We finally left about 1:30 after being pelted with birdseed from his family and some of mine. I ran to his car and got in, locking the doors. I refused to get out for a picture afterwards. Someone had thrown seed in my eye, i didn't so much mind the seed in my sandals, or my dress..

Then we were off to Gatlinberg for a few days for our honeymoon, in the honeymoon suite nonetheless. It had a small water park, a indoor and outdoor pool, water slide, mushroom fountain in the outdoor pool, lazy river, and most importantly a large jacuzzi tub in the room itself.

After that, myself, Kitren, Annika, my parents, and the poodle all went to the lake on my parents' pontoon boat. Annika and I road the barbie boat jetski - its quite pink and sits side by side, and Kit road my dad's blue rocketjetski. We swam and ate at the local boat dock. We had alot of fun.

Then it was quickly time to pack everything up and come back to our new home. I can foresee some drama ahead on the road before us, but with we can make it through anything together.

I have never found someone that I am so comfortable with in a relationship. We can talk about anything, and do anything together and it is just comfortable and natural. I love you always and forever my dear sweet Forever Love.. XOXOXO
