My fairytale...

Once upon a time, there was a girl...

Who was madly in love with a boy...

He was perfect and everything she had ever dreamed of and she wanted to marry him, but she knew he needed to serve his mission first. And he did...

And she waited for him! And sent him letters every week and holiday care packages...

And it made her soooo sad not to be with him, and it was the hardest thing she ever had to do, but she knew he was doing what he was commanded to do, and she prayed he would always feel her love and time would pass quickly. And finally, two years passed...

AND SHE WAS REUNITED WITH THE LOVE OF HER ETERNITY!!!!!!!!

And he was even more perfect and amazing than when he left!!! And she can't wait to marry her other half and live happily ever after!!!!

I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART DAN!!!!!!!!! YOU WERE WORTH EVERY SECOND!!!!!! XOXOXOXO

Almost Home!!

Dan gets home TOMORROW!!! How amazing is that?! It still seems just too good to be true for me. It's been over 25 months since the last time I've seen him, which is such a long time. I always knew I'd wait for him, because I knew he needed to serve a mission and I knew I needed to marry him, and waiting was the only way to accomplish those two goals. I'm really glad that I was able to be so involved in his mission by getting copies of his journal every week and his memory cards and hearing all about his investigators and what he was up to. I've loved hearing about his experiences and I'm soo proud of all his hard work and all that he was able to accomplish! But I'm glad missions aren't longer then two years because I'm sooo ready for him to be home! I need to be with my other half! I can't wait to see him this weekend! It will be soo fun and classic and perfect, just like him :)

Today was the 1st snow of the semester! And it snowed ALLL day! I was at the hospital for clinical and we lost power for about an hour, which was quite the experience since the computer system that we chart patient cares also went down. The nurses had to use paper charting which makes things more challenging. It's also freezing today, as I can see my breath in the air. I kind of forgot how cold it gets here, and it just seems way too early for snow!!

Halloween!!

This weekend I set up my Halloween decorations which was soo fun! I love my "All Hallow's Eve" garland!



My cute book and Halloween cards and my yummy candle! I need to put some candy corn in a dish here too :)

My little window garland!

When my mom was going through my Grandmother's house, she found this adorable Halloween postcard from 1905. I claimed it and am soo happy to have this vintage decoration for my room :)


I'm soo excited for Halloween and that Dan will be home before then!!
