It's Here....

I have been very excited everyday to get the mail hoping that my new social security card would arrive with my wonderful new name; Courtney Christine Boyles on it. I was really hoping that it would be here by Monday since I have an appoitment at the DMV to change my driver license and today it arrived. Yippee!!!

So I guest it is official......... I am Mrs. Courtney Christine Boyles!

I haven't signed the card yet becuase I just can't figure out how to sign Boyles....a B with a line or should I use nice handwriting and make it look pretty before I just scribble anyways!

I took a picture of the card, but for some reason there is an issue and it will not upload, erg!

Count down begins!

15 Thank You cards to go as of right now!What should I do to celebrate....

I would love to hear some ideas.......................

I just hope no more wedding presents show up for a week or two.

Half way there.....

On Sunday I decided that I was going to start tackling the daunting task of thank you cards for all the gifts Brandon and I received for the wedding and I just hit that half way mark. But I have realized, I will keep getting gifts over the next few months and will have to continue to write thank you notes. So if you have sent a gift and it take me a little while to get them out, sorry, but we are having a blast using everything that we have received.

But, a question for you...why is it that the woman has to do almost everything for these events. Granted, Brandon would have done anything I ask him to, but the woman has to change her name....write the thank yous, organize the gifts and where to keep all of the new found gadgets and such.......oh ya, I guess sit is because we really are the ones in charge no matter what the men think!

Work...weddings...stress....

Why is it always that when work is the worse you need it to be the best! I am swapped at work and well the wedding is 9 days away. I seems like once I put out one fire the next fire starts. Oh well...that is what I get paid for .

But I have to say I am about to marry the most wonderful man. I had a meeting at the fair today and it didn't get out until 6:40pm. By the time I got home, Brandon had cleaned the house, fed the dog and was almost done making dinner. I am so blessed to call him mine.

Anyway...I am sure I will vent more on here over then next 9 days as I prepare for the wedding and try to close up all the lose ends in the office...

Thanks for listening :-) Oh and since I have no really cute pictures of anything...I figured you might like to see a baby picture of Brandon.....I hoep are kids look this cute someday!

10 Days to D Day

Well it is 10 Days to D day...or the beginning of the next chapter of our lives! I am really excited. We have had so much going on lately, but Brandon is home and that has been the true blessing form the Lord!

Today I went to my hairdresser, she has been doing my hair since I was 4 and we practiced the wedding hair and she got it on the first try! It is going to be beautiful! I really don't have much left to do for the big day, but work is overwhelming at the moment so I need to get through that this week so I can start my time off next week!

Ralf is doing better...it is actually his hip and not his knee and it looks like it will just take time to heal....no surgeries needed at this time!! Yippee....more money for the honeymoon! Maui here we come!

Brandon and I decided that we needed a little get away so we headed to his Aunt and Uncles' in Placerville for a quick visit and it is just what the doctor ordered...good food, family and lots of laughs, but I forgot the camera...so no fun pictures!

I will post wedding pictures as soon as I can......

I broke down.......

I guess that I made the jump and came over to the world of bloggin. I figured that this would be the best way to post pictures from the wedding, honeymoon and all the wonderful things to come.

So the wedding is in 21 days and Brandon is still working in Yuma Az. He needs to come home. I had a total breakdown today...lots of crying, but some days you just have to fall apart to let the Spirit of the Lord fill you back up to over come the fears and stress. Our beloved puppy hurt his knee and we will be having a consultation with an Orthopedic Surgeon on Monday so I am glad that he will get some relief from the pain soon. But, other then the stress I can't wait to me Mrs. Boyles. I am so in love with my future husband.

Thanks A for introducing me to the blogspot...I hope all of you enjoy.
