74 Days

In 74 days I will be married to the coolest person I know and my life will change dramatically. Want to know how? I can stop making a countdown for every little thing I have to look forward to!! I can't wait to actually lose track of time and complain about it going by too fast. This has been my life for the past year:
Kellan's game 3 Days  
Denver for Easter/Days left of sophomore year 15 Days  
Bridals 23 days 
Utah Bridal shower 24 days 
Move home 25 days
Cal bridal shower 38 days 
Kellan comes to CA 44 Days 
Kellan comes before wedding 68 days
DAYS UNTIL THE WEDDING 74

Look how close it is getting people!!!

I have learned more in the last year than I can comprehend and I am grateful for the challenges I have gone through and the added strength that has come from them. I am blessed to have such great people in my life who have dealt with me in my not-so-glamorous moments these past couple months. I have always considered myself a generally patient person but after this year my patience has been tested unlike ever before. This video describes what I have learned this past year:


I have often felt like the child at the table with the marshmallow sitting in front of me that I couldn't eat. I have asked many times why we chose to wait so long, however the closer June 18th gets the more Kellan and I understand and realize the blessings that have come from our patience and long suffering. 
74 days seems like an eternity away but when that day comes I will be glad we waited and our reward will be far greater than an extra marshmallow!
