I'm not sure why people say it's hard, or weird, we have completed three months of this engaged business and it's wonderful! I mean, it will be infinitately better when we are actually married, and when we actually live in the same town, but hey we can't be too picky, right? We get to see each other roughly every other weekend. Some months we see each other more than others. Right now it's great because we've seen each other a lot... but I'm scared that might start to change since volleyball games are going to start happening soon. But things are good. We talk every night, via skype or the phone, and always make sure to at least send a few texts during the day. Some weeks are easier than others, and lets be honest, most are extremely hard. It's awful not having him here, but it makes our weekends that much better. It's weird to think that I'm planning on marrying a guy that I'm away from more than I'm with. The next 86 days can't go by fast enough. I miss my best friend every day, and can't wait until i can sit down and actually see his face when he's had a bad day, or to have him not feel guilty about not being in town to help me with things. It's so not fun when he's sick, or I'm dying of cramps (guys, seriously, last month tried to kill me) and neither one of us can do a thing for the other. If you are in a relationship and your guy lives in the same town as you, take advantage of it please. BUT, despite all that, honestly I love that guy.
We've had an eventful few months. Wedding plans are falling together effortlessly, which is amazing. And of course, people are driving us nuts when it comes to plans, and we've had some minor set backs when it comes to my ring, but we're making it work. We finally have a new ring, same style, but a different ring, and that was stressful, a few tears were shed during the month I didn't have a ring hahaha. We tried to take our actual engagement pictures and the wonderful rain, mud, fog, bad light combo ruined that... so next week it is! But we do have a few teasers! One of my friends enjoys taking pictures, and just wanted some practice shooting couples and we gladly volunteered! So now we have her teaser pictures and then we will have the ones we pay for! I'm equally excited about both. Here's a few :)
the moral of the story is, I'm very in love with him. He is amazing. he treats me like a queen and is always there for me, even when he's in a different state. I could not ask for a more perfect man for me.
