dear mr. gustafson

i can't wait to be your wife.

love,

your forever fiance.

faster.

oh christmas break. come faster.

cliche.

this is what happens when you forget a camera. and go to temple square. with your touch screen phone.

and your mom.

who is wearing gloves.

and it's cold.

nonetheless we finally got a picture where you could see both of our faces and both of our eyes were open. what a miracle.

we had so much fun seeing the lights kind of last minute on sunday- and mike pulled through with some slc secrets when he showed us the paper sacks with holiday messages from different countries.

he had me quiz him on all the laotian.

and he quizzed me on all the english.

my nearly perfect score gave me all the confidence in the world to finish up my classes and begin celebrating christmas next week in florida with all my babies!!

[9 days and counting]...

11.11.11

b and linds officially tied the knot!

it was so much fun to spend all day celebrating with such wonderful friends and family!

we are so blessed.

everything was beautiful and i was on cloud 9 the entire time.

amber flew into town which made it even better.

[that, and 13 dozen left over cookies]

after the wedding we didn't waste much time before decking the halls.

mike was a trooper and helped 24/7 which made it the perfect weekend!

ps. sunday we got to see river&saylor and mya&beckham in their primary programs and it was the cutest/sweetest/best thing i've ever seen! my favorite was the little boy who picked his nose during his one-liner at the mic.

i.died.

the holidays.

filled with glittering pumpkins and ruining ghost sugar cookies, we had a very successful halloween weekend!

he'll tell you it was a drag not dressing up for halloween, but guess what?

taking a study break to skype with my boy while he passed out candy at his parents house was a perfect way for me to celebrate!

to top it off, i came home from taking a test on tuesday to find out mike was in Logan! i was so surprised and we had so much fun.. he comes back up tomorrow and im already counting down!

i'm seriously the luckiest girl.

xx.

seriously though.
