June 10

It's hard to believe that tomorrow is the day I marry Mr. Clean. I woke up this morning and my Mom and I went to the Farmers Market for my flowers. The flowers are beyond gorgeous!!!! Purples and oranges and whites and all just beyond description, pictures don't do them justice pretty!!!!

From the farmers market to the church where friends came and helped set everything up. I understand that tomorrow I will be grateful that I grudgingly complied regarding my wedding. When it's all said and done I will have had a beautiful day filled with family, friends, laughter and love and what more could anyone ask for as they start their married life with their best friend.

Once everything was set up at the church we grabbed a quick bite to eat and then went for pedicures. My nail girl was too cute and my Mom treated my matron of honor and her mom (who both helped today) and her little sister (who is keeping nursery tomorrow) to pedicures. I think that our conversation kept our nail friends entertained because we were all over the place on conversation topics. My Godmother and Godsister arrived in town from Pittsburgh and came and joined us.

After toes we said goodbye to my MOH and her mom and sister and then we went to grab dinner. BBQ was the meal for the evening and it was YUMMY!!!! My Godfamily, Mr. Clean and my Mom's sister all enjoyed dinner at my parents house. It was a perfectly relaxed, fun evening that was not stressful but just a blessing.

My dress for the reception is pressed. I have to pack for my honeymoon. My fingers and toes look pretty. Mr. Clean has texted me good night and that he loves me.

Life is truly what happens when you are trying to make plans. I have been thinking about the timing of everything over the past few days. I spent the summer learning me. I learned this past fall that I could still fall hard and fast for someone. I learned that I would rather be single and happily so then tied to someone who was not right for me and embarrassed me. I understood why the guy from the fall didn't work out, it's not possible for a guy to be married to his job and married to a woman, or at least I'm not willing to put myself in this position. Just when I accepted that I liked where I was and how my life was I met Mr. Clean.

I love him. I understand that we are human, that we will mistakes. I know that everyday is not going to be perfect and we're going to have moments where it won't be fabulous. I know that life will have wonderful highs and hard lows. I know that as long as we put God first, then everything else will just work.

I am blessed.

I was hoping you'd do one final blog post with your reflections! What a year this has been. I think of everything that has happend since your birthday - the ups and downs and moments of total confusion. And now it all comes together and you are marrying your best friend! So wonderful.

I think tomomrrow is going to be such a wonderful day. I know it was not easy to get to this point, but when you walk down the aisle to Mr. Clean, surrounded by family and friends, it will all be worth it!

Make sure you take LOTS of pictures - or that someone does. And that you send them to me. :) Wish I coudl be there, but as I've said this week, I will be there in spirit and I will be thinking of you & Mr. Clean & girl Clean!

Have a fabulous honeymoon! Talk to you on the other side! :)
