Sweet Surrender

I have the hardest time coming up with clever blog titles. That's not what I wanted to talk about though.

As I'm blogging Sister (Brett) is playing TaySwifts Fairytale for me. It's one of my favorite things about being home, the bonding time I get with my sisters and parents. It's bittersweet. I guess knowing that i'm getting married soon and won't be seeing my family as much makes this all so important and special to me. The other day my daddy took me on one of my last daddy/daughter dates and I teared up a little bit. I'm so beyond ready to take this next step in my life , but i'm not ready to let go of what I have. As Brittany Spears put it , " I'm not a girl , not yet a woman."

Anyways... to continue on with sappy Afton moments ( i'm sorry , it's just the extremely high amounts of hormones racing through my body , thanks to being a girl and birth control. I've decided I dislike BC , but I dislike unplanned pregnancy more , so I deal. ) TMI , sorry. Back to the subject...

I was scrapbooking engagement pictures last night. Scrapbooking is my new favorite past time. I'm getting good at it too! Anywas as I was looking at the scrapbook and the pictures I thought how cool it is that i'm giving my children , and grandchildren , and great grandchildren this blessing. This book to look back at and say " these were my grandparents etc. " I think that's so cool. That future generations will have this . What a blessing that is. So many great memories are stored in that book. Those memories will be preserved forever and my future generations will be able to share in all those memories.

Also 4 weeks until I move back out to Utah to be with Gregg. I was talking to him last night and telling him how I wished the next 4 weeks would go by faster. Gregg asked if I had anything to keep me busy. I replied well I have my grandparents in town till the 8th , then I have my Bridal shower on the 11th. That alone will put us 2 weeks into it. After that I'll be busy packing what seems like my whole life up. Things are happening sooo fast. Tonight alone I have my interview with the stake president to get his signature for my temple recommend. Then i'll be done with that. It's crazy to think how fast this is creeping up on me.

Oh and my new calling! On Sunday I will officially be the new Relief Society Chorister! I'm super excited to have a calling I will enjoy for all of one month. Oh well , 1 month is better than nothing right ? I have to go now though. Got to find the website for the Bridesmaids hair accessories. Okay , love ya'll lots. BYE
