Goodbye Singlehood!

I am copying Jenn, and completing a condensed version of "Things I look forward to list." I only have 3 days to wait!
--Never having to say goodnight on the doorstep in the cold
--Keeping a clean, uncluttered apartment, especially the kitchen
--Becoming independent of my parents and dependent on Anthony
--Starting my own family
--Cuddling in bed
--Sharing my life with someone, or better yet, having an eternal companion
--Giving 100% (This is one of Jenn's comments, and I never understood it until I became engaged.)
--Receiving my endowment
--Being sealed for time and all eternity in the St. George temple by Anthony's Grandpa
--Six days of stress-free bliss that I get to spend with Anthony alone and enjoy his company


I am so excited to be sealed for time and all eternity, and begin my life with Anthony. This is what I have been preparing my whole life for--getting married in the temple! I couldn't have asked for a more perfect man for me than Anthony. :)

For the record...
Because of Anthony's good memory, here's a timeline of our time together:
February 28th--Anthony and I met country dancing
1st weekend in March--our first date
April 13th--Anthony gave me flowers for my birthday
April 17th--Anthony and I held hands for the first time while watching Australia
April 26th--Anthony and I's first kiss and the night we made things official
Summer--Anthony and I had lots of fun and go to know each other.
October--I love you
October 15th--Set the temple date for December 22nd
October 17th--Anthony proposed in American Fork Canyon
December 22nd--MARRIAGE!!!

Today's the 22nd!! Have a wonderful day maris...hopefully you got some sleep last night- i literally didn't sleep one minute the night before i got married. Part of the reason was i was sharing a hotel room with my parents and they sleep loudly, but also, i was too excited- but somehow i survived fine on no sleep. Anyways what was i saying? Well, have fun-- and oh boy i can't wait to see pictures! Also, good thing you're getting married in st. george cause i checked the weather and it's like 10 degrees warmer there than in salt lake area.
