Officially Less Than a Year

I'm sure most of you saw my Facebook post.  Yesterday was one year.  I was SO excited.

I mean, I was really excited about it.  So as I was driving back home after a 'lightening-ed' out football game and a wonderful post game gathering; I was thinking, "Ok, what are you excited about?"

I mean is it the weddingvacation aspect, the big day' bride centered attention...

Then I started worrying, "Oh gosh, you are being one of those brides who is only concerned about her big day - not the meaning behind what the big day is..."

POOP!

But all my concerns were dashed away when I got home.  There he was; sitting at his computer.  I had brought him food from the post game gathering and he was very thankful.  He and I talked about our days.  We played a little Words by Post (it's Words with Friends but we can't seem to find the REAL Words with Friends on our phones.)  Sat on the couch together... 

Yes, I am excited about a tropical vacation with my friends and family.  Seriously, who wouldn't be?  Yes, I'm excited about the wedding.  Yes, I'm excited/nervous being the "center of attention."

But at the end of the day, I get to come home to Dan.

When I think about it like that, I'm more excited.  Save the dates, invitations, photographers, cakes, dresses... really the only thing that could go wrong is one of us not showing up.  I solved that one - he's trapped at a resort.

So here's to me - figuring it out; I get to be excited because its going to be super fun AND because nothing is going to ruin what I already have.

OK - this was a sappy post.  Sorry.  I did order a sample save the dates  (I can't bring myself to call them STDs like I've seen on some websites.)  Pretty sure just about everyone I know, knows the date at this point.  But they are cute and they'll have some additional information... maybe.
