this week

So, it's been two weeks (feels like 2 months) since I've seen David and I feel like half my brain is missing! My advice...Never, ever separate yourself from your fiance.

Side note, I am on a health kick. As of today. Thirty days of strict exercise and eating right! Woo hoo! I am really pumped about it. I got my motivation trying on swimsuits today at Everything But Water :/

This weekend I'm off to Lake Powell with Kenna! So excited to just relax and get some sun!



                                                          

dad's day

happy father's day pops! thank you for your constant love and support.

i don't know how you put up with all the expenses and frills that come along with 4 girls! 

you did an amazing job.   

i love you always!

its kinda like christmas eve

So I made it safely (thankfully) to LA! Without sleeping a wink on the 12-hours-too-long flight,

I was flat-lining when Kristen and my Mom picked me up at 7am.

However, I got a good second wind after they took me out for bagels (it's been so long) and a nice, overdue pedicure! Aw, I love when us girls get together!

And tonight is kinda like Christmas Eve for me...

who wouldn't be over-joyed to see these two adroable kids, after going

a long six months without holding them in your arms?!

They are coming to Cali tomorrow with Kaylynn and Ryan to join in on our california-cation.

oh summertime, i've missed you so.

AND NOT TO MENTION,

I'll be picking up Miss McKenna in Orange County tomorrow too!

Talk about my favorite people gettin together!

Oh happy day!  

...if only my fiance were here, blahh! Hurry up David and get over here,

i need you.  

home sweet home

tomorrow morning i leave australia... 

13 hours later i arrive in LA.

and then the wedding planning can (finally) begin! well after a a few beach days with my family and my bestest Mckenna, of course. 

with only 8 weeks to go? i must be crazy,  heaven help me plan this! 

Ps.

So, our engagement party was on Saturday and it was a success! We had such a good time seeing everybody and just having a nice evening with friends and family. Thanks to everyone who could make it! We love you all and wish you could come to the wedding! Oh well, to put it in david's words, "better come next time!" haha, next time david, seriously?! Whoops! ;) 

Only one week til I'm back in the US of A! YIKES! It's creeping up on me! But I am VERY excited, so much wedding planning to do!
