4 years ago today

4 years ago today my sisters my mom and I painted our fingernails and toenails because pretty is important when you're about to get married.

4 years ago today Josh and I made no less than 3 trips between my parent's house in Lindon and what would be our first apartment together in Murray. One trip was for the sole purpose of getting empty shoe boxes to give the food table "depth".

4 years ago today Josh and I spent a few hours in the Salt Lake temple doing a session as a couple for the first time.

4 years ago today my mom was stressed about whether or not the table toppers matched the flowers and weather or not the flowers would float.

4 years ago today Josh's mom was probably crying her eyes out because her baby boy was about to be stolen by her future daughter.

4 years ago today I was pretty dang nervous about tomorrow.

4 years ago today Josh and I had a very serious talk about how important it was that he pick me up at my mom's house before going to the temple. I was terrified that he wouldn't show.

4 years ago today I threatened Josh that if he was late I would die. And that would mean he would die. So please please PLEEEEEEASE don't be late. I think it was the first time I begged.

4 years ago today we bribed my little brother and his girlfriend to decorate our car nicely before anyone could get to it to decorate it meanly. They did.

4 years ago today we decided (for the 900th time) that the reception was not the highlight of the day.
