Moving!

I am all officially packed and ready to move into my new apartment. I'm slightly embarrassed by how much stuff I have, and by the fact that I have more at home. Aaron told me that he brought a suitcase and that was it. I had no idea how that was possible until he told me that all he brought was clothes and toiletries. What about decorations? Cooking supplies? He looked at me and then informed me that their apartment didn't own a measuring spoon or cups. He said they were a manly apartment. Go figure

I am so excited for Christmas and all the fun stuff that comes with it. I feel that with BYU, finals don't get done until a couple days before Christmas and so it's kind of a shocker when Christmas just comes up. Thankfully I have most of my shopping done except for my little brother and my mom. Shopping for parents is so hard. Whatever they need, they get, and whatever they want is really expensive. I also like my gifts to apply to the person and for them to actually use them, not regift them (note, I've done that before).

Should be writing a paper....

Okay, so I should be writing a paper, but obviously I'm not (too bad the blog doesn't count). I wish I knew why, when I sat down to write a paper, even though I know it's due the next day, I would rather do anything but and so I do. I guess I get too easily distracted. I'm the same way in movies, sitting still for 2 hours KILLS me. I don't know how Aaron does it. We'll be cuddling and I'm always the one who has to shift and wiggle. You would think he'd be the one who's constantly moving since I'm leaning up against him, but nope, he's content to just sit there.
Thanksgiving is coming up and I'm so excited. Aaron and I have to split the holidays since our families are from different states. Since we're getting married to close to Christmas, we figured we'd spend Christmas with my family and Thanksgiving with his. I'm so glad that my future in-laws are nice. They've done so much already and we're not even married yet. I wish we were. I hate having to say goodbye at night and then have to wait before I can see him again. Oh well, only 36 more days!

Aaron's Birthday

I'm not going to pretend that my blog will ever be very interesting, or updated very frequently, I have a hard enough time writing in a journal :) but maybe, I might drop a few inspiring thoughts, or experience a few lightbulb/genius moments. Who knows
Aaron turned 25 today. I've been giving him a hard time, telling him that I was in the 6th grade when he was a sophomore, or that he's 300 months old and I'm only 252. He's really good about going with it, makes it fun. His parents came down to help celebrate and yesterday Glade, Corinne, Aaron, Tyler (Aaron's little brother) and I spent the day together, Aaron and I also got to take our engagement pictures. Glade does a great job and any way that makes it cheaper and easier and less stressful I'll take. It was tons of fun just getting to smile and feel beautiful. That's one of the things I love about Aaron, even if I don't think I'm beautiful, he tells me that I'm beautiful every single day (often more than once) and he means it. He really means it.
But...I made Aaron a cake, a carrot cake, and it has 300 candles on it. That cake, once those candles are lit will be au flambe, and the top layer will basically be wax. I'm excited to see his reaction to it. Buying all those candles at the grocery store was interesting. I mean, who buys over 300 candles at one time, even if they are on sale.
