Exhaustion

As most of you know, the past couple months have just been a complete whirlwind. And I am bummed that they had to go by so quickly. I'm going to attempt to get my thoughts and emotions in order by doing a little recap of events. Hopefully this will slow things down a bit so that we can really see all that has happened in the past 60 days.

Here we go:

November 17th- Fly out to California.

November 18th- Meet and greet with the other boot camp families.

November 19th- Family day at MCRD. See (and talk to) Scott for the first time in 3 months!!

November 20th- Scott graduates from boot camp!

Later on November 20th- Fly back to Texas.

November 21st- Stare at my new Marine all day long.

November 22nd- Drive with Scott to Oklahoma to see family.

November 23rd- Drive with Scott and cousins to Kansas to "the ranch".

November 24th- Scott proposes to me and we are engaged!

November 25th- I jump up and down all day long.

November 26th- Thanksgiving/Austin's birthday.

November 27th- Scott shoots his first buck!

November 29th- Drive 8 hours back to Texas from Kansas. Scott promises me that there is no way we're getting married in the 45 days he's on leave...

November 30th- Start planning showers and parties and wedding with friends. And Scott has his first day working as a recruiter's assistant.

December 1st- Pioneer Woman's book signing!

December 2nd-10th- Scott's working and I'm planning our spring wedding and everything that goes along with that. In our free time, we're moving me home from Arlington and fixing up my parents back house so that we'll have a place to live. With the help of our sweet, sweet friends.

December 11th- We realize that the smart thing to do would be to get married before he leaves for training.

December 12th- We decide to get married on December 26th.

December 13th- We realize that's in 2 weeks; and we all freak out and start running around trying to get things done.

December 15th- My first wedding dress session.

December 16th- Pick out my dress at Elizabeth's Bridal! Nicest ladies ever.

December 17th- Order cakes from Society Bakery and Cookies By Design.

December 21st- Go look at beautiful room that the Humphrey's let us use for free to get married in.

December 22nd- Pick out decorations.

December 23rd- Bachelorette party! And bachelor party! (But I guess boys don't think to take pictures.)

December 24th- Pick up wedding cupcakes and grooms cookie cake.

December 25th- Merry Christmas!

December 26th- Wedding day!

December 27th and 28th- "Honeymoon" at a B&B in Granbury, TX. http://www.pomhouse.com/

December 29th- Alumni soccer game

January 1st- New Years Day!

January 2nd- Scott said goodbyes to friends.

January 3rd- Packed all his stuff.

January 4th- He was on a plane to California.

Currently, he's still in California for training. I'm staying at my parents house until March when we find out where he will be stationed. Then I will move where ever that is (hopefully either North Carolina or California) and we will get to be newlyweds.

Exhausted? I am.

I'm gonna go take a nap now.
