Best Friends Forever

Sometimes you don't really realize how much you love something or someone(s) until their gone. Its so exciting being engaged and being with my husband to be but sometimes you need that girl time. For two whole years it was 100% girl time. I lived, breathed, slept, ate, loved, cried, laughed, and everything else you could imagine we did together. They wiped my tears after Tim left, and did my hair and make up the day he came home. Suddenly its all day&night Tim time which I absolutly love, but when something comes up and you just need some girl time I feel kinda lonely, I feel like those parts of me are gone. So to sum up, I miss my best friends. I miss them terribly. I wish I could have the love of my life and the two pieces that make me whole together forever, although they are in spirit it is impossible to be in person.

It helps to look back and realize some of the best times, and know that down the road there are more to come with my best friends.

Love you Kace, Love you Jess.

Marry Me..

We're two birds of a feather, no one else can do it better.

This boy is so much fun!

This is our new home!! We found it at the great indoors, we get a lot of visitors but thats ok! We eat hand painted apples and drink hot air, occasionally sipping fake wine.

How great are these?!

WHAT?! Two posts in one day?

Well after I just posted that one I was looking at my soon to be sister in laws adorable blog I was inspired to upload pictures off my camera. Shes so good at taking a picture and uploading right away, me.. not so much. So Rachael, this is dedicated to you! Also because I know you love dorky pictures of your little brother!

Once Upon a Time

January 23th, 1940 Tim and I met. With permission from my father, he courted me, and captured my heart. We walked hand and hand talking about of dreams, wishes and hopes for the future. He won me a teddy bear, and help me on the Ferris Wheel keeping me safe. At the end of the day as the sun went down he walked his bike, ballons blowing in the air and teddy secured in the basket we reminiced of the wonderful day, and I knew... I would marry this boy.


Ok so it didnt happen exactly like that.. but thats what it will look like!!
ENGAGEMENTS ARE DONE!! They are going to look so blissfully fantastic.

COMING SOON:

MOST AMAZING PICTURES OF THE MOST IN LOVE PEOPLE EVER!







*This was not today but it was inspiration.

Love, love will keep us together

What do you get with a scanning gun, free time, and Tim&Amy?

hmmm, 9 pages of registered gifts! Is that normal?

At first it was legit. We were adoringly picking and mapping out our living room, and then the gun died. So we went back to the front and got a new one! Awesome, on to the next thing..

and then the gun died.

No worries! It is all good, we are so preciously in love planning what towels we will wipe our hands with, and which rug will match perfectly and then..

THE GUN DIES.

oh for heavens sakes!!!

So we snapped out of our lovey dovey dream world and WENT CRAZY! It was a lot of fun again.. and then the gun started to die. But good news it didnt!

COMING SOON- Marriage!

1 month 4 weeks and 2 days.

So after I had my little breakdown that so I publicly announced things have been great! haha I took a deep breath, said some prayers and now things are starting to come together!! WHOOHOOO!!

Despite how stressful this all is Im sooo sooo soooo excited for this wedding but really mostly to be married to Tim VanCapelle<3

Now that I'm getting into this whole blogging thing (thanks to my future sister in law Rachael ;) ) I want to show everyone all of my ideas! But then I think.. no no I want them to be a surprise!!

Forget that.

mostly because I'm pretty sure only like 4 people actually read this. So! without further a due, here are some sweet things!

FRUSTRATION

Why does EVERYTHING have to be so complicated?

AHHHHHASKDnaslkn;fkjkdjcnldskjcbn;sjbcwi3Y494857847

ok, i feel better now. Thanks.

Seriously though. Planning this wedding is going to give me gray hair!! But its not the wedding, its everything. Why cant everything just go right?

Why cant Isaiah just do his homework without punching me in the face? Why cant the classes I need be available? Why dont I live in a real house? Why isnt anything for this wedding done? WHY ISNT ANYONE HELPING ME?! uggghh

Tonight was my embarressing breaking point when I dragged sweet Tim away from his football game on search to find a planner in hopes to organize the chaos of my life. So first we went to walmart, which didnt have anything I liked. NOTHING! But I was set on finding a planner to organize, organize, organize. DETERMINED that this planner would settle my frustrations. So we left walmart and headed to target, we drove in silence as I dwelled on all these things in my life that are bringing me down. As we walked into target the weirdest thing happened..

my eyes began to water...

I couldnt hold it in any longer. Tim asked me what was wrong, all I could do was cry. He held me tight and told me he loved me. I told him I was frustrated with work, school, money, my family, wedding. Haha I feel like such a fool crying in the office isle of target.

I guess sometimes thats all you need is to let it out, take a deep breath, and get on with life.

Everyone has trials and tribulations in life. Its all about how we deal with those problems, and the support from the people we love!

Love, Tim

I love Amy and thats all there is to know.
Love, Tim

Then&Now

So my first post gave me a great idea to find similar pictures from the past and present.

So without further a due...

Its funny how things have changed so much but at the same time everything is practically the same.

Goodnight, Sleeptight

Will You Always Be Fun??

Ever since I was a little girl my nanu has ALWAYS asked me, "will you always want to go to lunch with me?", " will you always like to go to the movies?", "will you always go to these things" (our multiple crazy traditions!) and last but not least, my favorite, "will you always be my baby?"

Being very young and loving every second of everything I always answered "Of course nanu!" Then I got a little older and a little brattier, but still would answer, "yesss naanu."

Now here I am, 20 years old about to get married, still happily attending Teddy Bear Tea, Nutcracker ballet, Harry Potter, Twlight and anything else I've been invited to.

So tonight Tim and I attended Zoo lights with the whole family and as we giggled about the animals "playing a game", danced to "Somewhere over the rainbow", kissed even though people were watching, and chased after each other as if we were on the play grounds trying to give each other cooties, nanu asks "Will you always be fun?"

I have kept all my other promises and Tim and I promised to always be fun, we pinky promised.

Fiance

Then..

Now..

Fiance. What an odd word. As a little girl you never play "engaged." You play house, you play worker woman, you play mom and sometimes you even play girlfriend. How do I train for such a thing as fiance?

Its a pretty fun game. I have this really pretty ring, the most beautiful I have ever seen. I wear it everyday, it goes with every outfit! Oh wait. This is real life.

So soon I will be Amy the wife? WHAT!? Thats insane. Here I am, at home, I've said my goodnights and goodbyes to my love, put the bridal magazines down, exited the websites of "How to Have a Fabulous Wedding", announcement examples, and cruislines in which to spend the honeymoon, and now I'm alone with my thoughts and frankly I get a bit nervous at the thought of being married. Actually, scratch that. Being married isnt nerve wrecking, I guess its being a wife? Amy the wife. (Same thing? No.. different. )I guess I see it as some 1950's cliche. Dinner on the table as he walks through the door. The house must be spotless, and the children perfect. Basically, none of those things will be happening. Tim& I will take it one step at a time and figure it out, because when I'm with him nothing else really matters but being with him and keeping each other happy. So we will eat whatever is made, whenever its made. We will clean together... maybe. When we feel like it. And the kids.. well.. haha Lets just figure that out muuuch later as we go. Tim& I will always be those sixteen year old kids that fell in love over laughter, and fun times. How wonderful is it that I get to spend forever and ever with my highschool sweetheart? The only boy I've ever loved.
