Whew

So the truck came with all my stuff came today and we suprisingly we unloaded everything. We just have to unpack all my boxes which I am not looking forward to. Kailey is might be coming over tomorrow to help but I feel weird having people help me unpack. Maybe it is because I have become really OCD where I have to have everything in a certain place. It would be nice to get some bonding with her since we are going to be sisters in law but it will be weird.
The company that I hired for the truck wrote down that I had use 18 feet of space instead of 10 which was an extra $600. Luckily they were able to find what else they shipped and figured out that there was no way that was right. Thankfuly they are returning the 8 feet.

Welcome Home!

So we finally made it the horribly long 1370 miles. I love the place it and even the animals seem to like it. The ceilings are super high which makes it seem even bigger. We have a huge bathrooms and access to to the pool (yes there is a jacuzzi) and a work out room. We have amazing views of the city and at night it's even more gorgeous.

I was able to fix dinner last night even though it wasn't horribly delicious it was still nice being able to prepare it for Ryan. So far living with him is nothing short than great. It nice to finally have some rest time after the stressful move. Tomorrow, although the truck is coming and apparently we have to park it outside the whole complex which means we have to somehow carry my stuff 3 blocks. I am not really looking forward to it. I can carry some of the boxes in my car but not the big furniture.

So my house is just about empty. I am on the cleaning stages and tomorrow Ryan comes in. It will be so great to see him since its been over a month. I will be able to see him now for the rest of my life now and I can't wait. Hopefully the second week that I am there I will get a job and that will make everything better.
Soon wedding planning will be full swing!!!

YAY/Boo Car

Well I recieved a call from the auto shop saying my car was ready! I was super stoked considering it was was done 2 days early! Well when I saw it I was amazed because it looked like a new car. They had even detailed the inside of my car which means they removed all the dog hair which had to be a hard task.
I am driving home from work and my check engine light comes on. I immedatily freak out because at this point I am suppose to leave in a week. I drove to O'Rileys to check out a reader and learn that its a Code 1 error that means speed and performance sensor is messed up.
I took it the next day to a shop that the auto shop set me up with since they couldn't fix it and waited for 2 1/2 hours. They replace my spark plugs and tell me that the actual sensor will be in either Tuesday or Wednesday (note I am leaving on Thursday). They are going to try to overnight the part to get it here on Tuesday. I am keeping my fingers crossed!!

The Dress!

So we arrived at Davids Bridal right when they opened. My maidton of honor my sister Misty, my mom, another bridesmaid Kelsey, her mom and her friend Patrick. I wasn't expecting such a posse but at the end I was glad each one of them were there. Everyone was friendly and we started to pick out dresses. We came prepared with one of their books and picked out several that I wanted to try on. Actually I tried on a whopping 16 dress, there I really think it was just about every dress they had on. I guess I was the opposite of everyone else because the last one tried on was the one and it was completely different from what I thought I wanted. I tried it on, heared all the gasps from my posse and my consultant and looked in the mirror and I knew it was the one. It was one of those I have to have it moments. Its true I guess when you know you knowplus it being $300 off always helps. :)

So when we last left off my mom and I had woke up to a shooting the next day we learn that my sister had slept thru the entire thing!! I was horribly sore that day but we still had to go try on dresses for the first time. I wasn't completely excited because I just didn't feel that well. We went in and I started to feel better. I found a couple of ok dresses at the first shop but nothing was sticking out yet. All of the second shop dresses made me feel like I was trying on bad prom dresses. Needless to say we pretty much ran out of there. We only had one more day to find the dress ( I will give you a little clue we actually did).

Whirlwind

Lets rewind to last Friday I got into a car accident. Everyone was ok and I only had a few bumps and bruises. They said its going to take 10 days to get it fixed which would leave me with two days to before I move. Lets hope nothing get delayed.
Later that night there was a fight between my neighbor and someone else. I am not sure what exactly happened but I just knew there were two gun shots. I have never actual gun shots I was so scared and was expecting a window to break at any moment. I didn't see any blood when I went outside the next morning.
Luckily my mom and sister came in so we could go dress shopping. They kept me sane the entire weekend. My mom was actually laying next to me when the shots were fired. She stayed calm or at least seemed to be. Needless to say she can not wait for me to move out.
