Mr. & Mrs. Lee!!!

We.are.married.!!!!! This is a sneak peak picture our photographer put up on her site-I love it! She did great, can't wait to see all of them!

Everything went perfect for us-we loved every bit of it and are SO excited and happy to start our lives together. Our little family:)

Our honeymoon was amazing-our first trip together even. We went to Cancun. Got be beach bums, read in the hammocks, play in the ocean, spit out the salt water from playing the in ocean, snorkle trip to some gorgeous coral where we saw squid, octopus, sea urchin, polkadot fish-and tons more, visited the mayan ruins (amaizing!), and of course had some yummy meals and delicious drinks:)

I'm sorting through the pictures and getting them all loaded so those will be coming soon.

Couldn't be happier! Now back to the real world-work, thank you cards, putting our home all together. It'll be a proccess but we love it!

Thank you everyone for an amazing time and memories of our special day!

Love,
Gary and Amanda

WOHOO!!

TWO DAYS!!! Its crazy that it is so close! I love it-I actually feel relaxed in a way. All the major stuff is done, now its onto little errands (one being getting my nails done which will be nice and relaxing!). So So SO excited-I know I'll be back on here whining like a little baby that it all went by too fast and I wish it back but right now I'm so ready to be in my dress and walk down to my handsome husband to be:)

Our families have been such an awesome help and so supportive through everything-its so nice to have such solid people on both sides!

Here's a picture from my bachelorette party-Gary and the boys had his out at Cheney the weekend before but I have yet to see any pictures from his!!


The group @ Erins

My friend Lindsey and I-one of my bridesmaids

maybe more pictures to come but that's the most I have! Wedding next!!!

YAHOO!!

TEN

update on last post-feeling way better, still a little swollen but nothing compared to what it was--can't lie its irritating even the least bit of it but I am thankful its better at least!!

So not sure why I didnt mention last post (may not have happened yet) BUT Gary got a teaching job!! This is his third week at Truesdell Middle School!! It's been a crazy sudden change but he is doing great and I know those kids have a WONDERFUL teacher:) I'm so proud of him-I try to remind him that even on his stressful days that once they're older and can realize more in life they'll look back and see how amazing and helpful he is in their lives. SO PROUD!! It is by far keeping him busy and tired but we are so grateful it has finally worked out how it was supposed to!

SO......drumroll-10 DAYS Countdown. And believe me, I am constantly counting down:)

So much to do-cannot wait to marry my best friend!!! If I dont update before the big day you'll see picture(s) sooner than later after:)

Love-us. Have a great week!

Swollen...

...literally. My face is swollen. You can tell the most in my eyelids-and for the rest that know me more, esp. myself all around that area. Under my eyes I used to be able to see a hint of tired eyes-nope not with it being puffy.

I've been sick for two weeks now-on antibiotics for a week and a half (the half came when I called her saying my swollen problem had not changed at all) and had to call the doctor today to tell her that I dont think I can handle waiting the full week dose until Thursday-exactly 2weeks prior wedding for them to see that I am still swollen and THEN try to figure a new solution. SO-an hour from now I'll be at the doctors and seriously praying we can figure this out.

I've been tinkering on a very vain breakdown because I don't want to look swollen like this for the 'big day'. Sounds horrible but I know everyone else would have that thought atleast.

Unfortunatily you all do not get a picture. yet. I dont have time-thats my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

Wish me luck!

Losing my marbles:)

One marble at a time I think-but I'm pretty sure I'm losing them on a daily basis. haha

Not too bad sometimes though I realize something that I've thought or talked about but have totally forgotten. Atleast I have a month right?

I mentioned my Best Friends Wedding last time-it was a BLAST!! so much fun to see my beautiful friend so happy and enjoy a fun night with all close people! Can't wait to take my turn but it was soo fun just being able to be there for her and enjoy it!

Heres a picture of Katie and me:)

Alright off to do some fun laundry and go on a hopefully successfull hunt for the bridesmaids gifts!! (Can't wait to have our own washer & dryer!)

Countdown is on!!!!! 25 days till the wedding:):):) and that means on 27 days till we're on a beach side hotel for a week-yahoo!!!!!!!

Love you all!

-Amanda

Almost..

It is ALMOST my best friends wedding:) I'm super super excited. Sometimes I feel more excited about her day than mine just because of the simple fact I am so much more relaxed and my only to-do on hers is to keep her calm, have fun, fun, and more fun! Don't worry I am really stoked about my day too-just so crazy all there is to do!

I've been keeping up with working out four days a week-this week I am going to attempt to start five because I'm getting anxious to finally see some dang results! So we'll see how that goes. I just hope I can post a beach picture from our honeymoon and be proud to be in a bikini!

Enough about that-We're having a fun cookout at our house for the 4th of July so hopefully I'll get some pictures up after that to show you our celebration. Gotta get some fireworks still! Happy Early 4th to everyone since I know I rarely get on here!

Enjoy your week and the summer as if flys by!!!

So little time SO much to do

I am pretty sure I will loose my mind if my to-do list gets any dang longer! I feel like a little baby complaining about all there is to do still but dang it-it seems like it is honestly neverending.

Either way-I got a membeship to the Y and my plan is to go daily if I can-mostly mon-thur I can go after work and to a super fun class wed. which is helpful to de-stress. I like it-plus I want to see some change and thats the only way I know how to get it. It helps so much that Gary is a healthy guy. Without that I'd probably keep getting bigger..and bigger..and bigger.

A girl at work told me that within the first year-or 6 months?-of marriage that you gain 25lbs. Then she added 'So your gonna be fat!' and I told her that if that's the case than I hope she moves her skinny butt out of Wichita by then so she wont make fun of my curvy-wife-self:) But I wont let that happen.

It's not just the 'image' part its the whole feeling good about yourself-feeling healthy.

I'm getting there---just wondering when I'm gonna see the light at the end of this damn tunnel.

Oh How Time FLYS

Sorry I've been horrible-not that its life or death-about updating this thing.

We've settled in (I'm staying here at the house and Gary will move in when we get married). Momma thought I needed to clarify that:)

So its taken a bit to settle in, get the dogs used to the house, accumulate more items from loving family that really have been so so helpful, an of course breaking the place in with a few little cookouts-really good time with great friends!

Everything is now shifted mostly back to wedding wedding wedding. Gotta do so much for ours and for the handfull we have coming up-the next four months are going to fly by sooo fast. Which is really what we've wanted and waited for I just can't believe its getting so close!

Okay-enough blabbing now. I'll get some pictures up here soon.

Take Care:)

Home Sweet Home :)

Gary and I closed this morning and are now official home owners!!! I know-everyone says 'Welcome to being in debt!'-well we say we'll take it!! Its a good debt-a good investment and we love our new home! We move in later this week/weekend and some yard work is to be done but other than that Gary's family did an AMAZING job-we are so so so thankful for all the time and work they have put and have helped us be able to get our first home!

Robyn and Wendy

We are expecting to close on our house sometime late next week so pictures will be coming for that!

But until then here is a cute little video of Wendy and Robyn playing on their bouncy ball on Easter. Easter was great for us-so glad we were able to spend it with both families and enjoy our time together.



Until next time...Have a great week/weekend:)

More To Come

Hello Blog world! Erin don't go crapping your pants just yet-this is no promise of scrapping.

Hopefully if this goes as planned we can keep family and friends updated on our new adventures!

So much has been going on within the past two months. Gary and I are almost drowning in our to-do list--yet we are enjoying the road of engagement and are just ready for our day to arrive!

We have a ton of pictures of Easter and a fun video I'll get on here next. Hopefully soon to follow we should be closing within a week or two on our house so there will be many pictures to come!

...Bored yet?
