Ahhh, Saturday is just a few sleeps away, and yes, for all those who want to know I AM EXCITED!!!!! I have not hit the sleepless nights yet (and hopefully I won’t) but I do always get to bed too late because there is so much packing to be done yet. I know that I can wait until we get back to pack up my room and stuff but I do need to clean it before Friday. It really isn’t that messy just a lot of laundry baskets, suitcases and Rubbermaid containers around.

Everything is coming together so nicely for the wedding. There haven’t been any “bridezilla” moments (as Am likes to call them!) yet…ok, ok, maybe once or twice but they were minor issues! Mom and dad went to pick up rentals today already and Darcy is almost done making our lamp stands. They look so amazing! I am so proud that we can have decorations at our wedding that he made. I will have to post pictures of them because they are nothing short of amazing! I am always in awe when I go to the shop with him and watch him work. It is so foreign to me how to work a welder, and all the other tools and machines they have there. I liked the lamps so much that he is making smaller ones for our house. I can’t wait.

Lisa, Amber, Jill, Kelsey and I are all going to get our nails done today! I have never had gel nails before but I am really looking forward to having long STRONG nails. My nails are never ever long. A little bit of white is all I can handle. I think it’s because my nails are so soft that they just bend and break when they are so long. And I hate when there is dirt under my nails. I also am going for a massage today! Which I am VERY excited for!!!

There are so many pictures that I need to post about what’s been going on the last few weeks but I just don’t have time now, so when I get back be ready for a MASSIVE post! Oh and if you think of us at all on the 22nd or 29th (when we will be flying) pray for us…I have never flown before and Darcy only has when he was a kid. We are stopping in Toronto for a few hours both ways and I’m a little stressed about everything seeing as we both have no clue where to go!!! I’m sure we will be fine; I am not so worried about us getting lost but that our luggage will. That is my biggest fear of flying.

Just to update a little about whats been going on this week...

Monday-I babysat Hailey during the day and then went to darcy's for supper. We packed up some things to take to the house before heading off to Am and Eriks to "babysit" while they had "bible study." Just as we were entering Riverside Erik texted to see if we would be there soon b/c they were going to be late for "bible study." As I texted back we passed all the hidden cars and I was too busy to notice. We walked into Am's and I was in the midst of saying "Sorry we're late Darcy takes forever........" and then I am overwhelmed with a ton of people and "SURPRISE!!!!" Yes that is correct...A surprise shower that I DID NOT see coming in the least. I was convinced that I would see it coming and that it would be Friday the 13th. But was I ever WRONG!!!! After the shower Misty, Lisa, Stef, and I headed to Lisa's to watch the Bachelor!!!
Tuesday-Darcy came over for supper and we packed up a lot of stuff to move to the house. We had our last meeting with pastor George before the wedding and then went to unpack at the house. Ty and Stef came to check out our new place and we then went home to watch The Office.
Wednesday-I went to Winnipeg with Am, Erik and Hailey in the afternoon and refrained from buying anything except for some cleaning supplies and detergent. I was quite proud of myself that I didn't spend any money on wants....ok minus timmies coffee; which I didn't even really want I just wanted to roll up the rim, but I lost. 1-12 now. I came home pack even more things to take to the house and left for Awana. Another surprise shower from my class, a beautiful toilet paper wedding dress AND accessories, deal or no deal: Awana edition, singing, and an Easter speaker later, I was back at the house unpacking more stuff. Darcy was already there bed and all! I told him he should move his big things like t.v. and stereo, and such so that he is more motivated to move out and this process would be over sooner...and he chose his bed! As of yesterday night he is sleeping on 2 sleeping bags and 2 blankets on the floor of his room!

Today I am going to winnipeg with mom to do some more wedding shopping (if she ever phones to say what time we are leaving) and Darcy is coming over for supper, we are gunna pack even more stuff (packing seems NEVER ENDING!!!!), watching survivor at 7.00 :) and then go unpack.
Happy Easter!!

More pictures from playing in the snowHard at work in the kitchen (hopefully this keeps up when we are married!)

Mmm... fruit Salad
The lovely lunch that Darcy made me

We went to see Deep Sea 3D at IMAX and looked cool doing it!!!

It was soooo hot in there so I chose comfort over style!!

Where's Darcy??

This weekend has flown by so fast!!! Friday Darcy Lisa and I decided to trek out to winnipeg to see a movie. Well that did not go so well after one theatre being packed and the other theatre being sold out we just decided to go to blockbuster and purchase a movie. We ended up watching Benchwarmers, we had seen it before but it was still good. We then got through more of season 2 of The Office...one of my new favorite shows!!! I got home at around 2.15 and felt amitious so I did part of my Sunday school lesson. Saturday brought waffle making, newspaper reading and the evening was spent in Carman. Sunday was quite an exciting day for us...Church, bbq'd lunch and a nap took up the morning and afternoon. We then got a phone call informing us that we could come and pick up our key to....OUR NEW HOUSE!!!!! Yes that is correct Darcy and I are now the renters of our very first house!!!! We went to his place to pick up season 2 of The Office and our coffee maker and vacuum cleaner and a few other things. We brought them to our house and invited our parents and sibling so come chech out our new place. We ordered pizza and Chinese for supper and went to watch the hockey game at Am and Eriks. I will try to get some pictures of our place up in the next little while. We are planning to move stuff in this week and Darcy will move in at the end of this week or next week sometime! That is all for now!
