I love to see the temple, i'm going there in 13 days

AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
can you talk about excitement? I can, it's beyond words. I have been waiting a long time to recieve the blessings of the temple, and it's finally almost here!

We have already gotten our temple recommends and everything figured out so today Becky ( our friend jakes' mom) came with me to the distribution center to get everything for the big day! She is so unbelievably kind to us. She bought both Tanner and I our frist set of temple clothes. I am so blessed. We are so blessed. We can't wait to go to the temple together! I cant believe it's almost here, it's so close yet it seems so far away at the same time. I hope the next 15 days go by faster then anything has in my entire life.

I can never sleep. I'm to excited.
I am constantly awake at 5am watching the oc or in tonights case, high school musical for the third time. of the night. i'm too excited to sleep.

what a wonderful thing marriage is, what a wonderful thing finding your eternal companion is. mine is real hot. i love him. i can't wait to say the word husband all the time.

5 things new you can learn about me.

1. I don't really like the word Fiance, i feel... corny saying it. Like i'm trying to show off.
2. I love the word husband.
3. I love the word Tanner, and husband in the same sentence.'
4. I got my dress altered, and then re altered... apparently..there was three inches of extra material to take in even after the alterations had been made? I couldn't have lost that much weight so i'm unsure what happened. either way.. dream dress will be ready by friday.
5. My parents are sad they can't be inside the temple to watch their baby girl get married, and that makes me sad. But I bore testimony about this a not this fast sunday but the one before it and I said that while Im in there without my famly, and without my friends and having nobody in there really that is from my past what so ever.. I will think to myself the Lord has a special purpose for me, in doing this. I am lucky to be able to be used as a tool in his great work. I will serve him, and I will do and go through this moment even if it's a tiny tiny big sad for those reasons, because A) I love my husband more than anything in the world. B) There is a reason, I accepted it, I will live by it and make the Lord who gave me the blessing of entering the temple in the first place my service and dedication.

There are many things that people say and think about the temple, the funny thing is, it's not a secret place, it's a sacred place. It's a place where even if someone who wasn't a member did enter they would have absolutely no idea what was taking place which would subtract from the sacredness of the place. It would be like watching TV in spanish if you speak only english. I feel a bit of pride when it comes to the temple and the fact that i'm going there in two week. I shouldn't. I should fix that however, my feeling is i'm finally different. im making my outward showing of an inward commitment. To the Lord and to my Tanner

sugar,
i'm so grateful that you will be in thet emple with me. you make me the happiest girl in the entire world and i love you so much. I cant wait to be your eternal wife/girlfriend. I will cook and clean everyday.
ok,
love you,
bye!
