The Road to our Wedding.

Oh...My...Garsh

2009-06-12T16:28:00.000-07:00

Tara and I had so much fun, well...we always have so much fun when we are together LOL...we wanted to play dress up and drink margaritas, mine being virgin of course.

Here are a couple more....

Talk about good friends! This is what is all about!

Just a Good day all in all.

2009-04-28T18:15:00.000-07:00

Just had a swell day is all.
Got the car cleaned up.
Got some well needed laundry finished.
Deep Cleaned (and well needed) the bathroom.
My tub looks imMACulate.
I felt pretty accomplished....I am a susie homemaker ya know.

Had lunch ready for the "man" when he got home.
Spent some time running errands together :)

Sometimes we enjoy just being in each others presence so while he's on his computer photoshopping friends faces on dwarfs, I watch my new favorite movie twilight while trying not to fall asleep.

Then a nice walk with the little boy to try to keep in shape.
And finally we come home make some home made pizza and watch american idol toghether :)

A great day...I KNOWWWW!!! lol

I am a very lucky girl to say the least.
Brandon is more then just a charmer, comedian and uber good looking.
He is a provider, protector, and more importantly mine.
If I don't thank God enough...THANK YOU GOD for bringing such an amazing person, man, best friend into my life.
I am truly blessed.

Just wanted to share our first photograph together =] aww the weird stage!
He worked at walmart, I worked at shoneys...and we did play LOTS of yatzee =]

Now before I get too sleepy, I have been waiting all day for my "read before bedtime time" =]...New Moon...so far its awesome!

Goals in the next month.

2009-04-21T18:33:00.000-07:00

I hope to find a dress!
I hope to gather a guest list!
I'm hoping for maaaaybe a good find in a caterer....

I'm hoping!

I am VERY excited tho about the trip to the zoo this weekend...i dont think anyone realizes how often my parents HAD to take me to the zoo growing up. It's one of my fondest memories...one I hope to bring into my future kids life.

Which got me thinking....what will my kids look like, this is the answer I got...

LOLOLOLOL
I DID have blonde hair when I was a kid so maybe he will grow out of it too!!

That was fun, and now that I have forgotten the original reason for this blog...Ima go make a Devon Ranelle.....at makemebabies.com of course to see what she would look like :)

Awwww...what cute babies I will have one day!
LOL - my kids have some messed up mouths I will say !!

So I am going to bed...Nezzy is already falling asleep next to me poor thing!

Had a GRAND DAY!!

2009-03-28T22:20:00.000-07:00

Spent the day with my lovely friend Tara/Maid of honor!!

We found a dress...at davids bridal...that i would acutally wear!!!
And guess what!???!?!!??
Its not 3 grand! ACTUALLY!!!
Its 2500 LESS!

Daddy liked that part :)
I also found some cute matching bridesmaid dresses!

Plus just had fun being with my T.

Bad news is....I'm pretty sure my puppy has worms :(
I've been trying really hard to get rid of the fleas...I didnt think about just taking him in.
I figured I could do it my self and save some money...now i wish i just took him in.
I love this dog...he's like my first kid.

Life Update :)

2009-03-23T19:27:00.000-07:00

Nezerath is just a-growing :)

Don't know if you can tell, but daddy gave him a nice trim...he looks so good!!!

My boys in there usual spot.

See...

Brandon loves our new TV, we just got a 32 inch LCD, its really nice, Nez just likes chilling with his daddy. At first I didn't think we should get a TV so soon, but Brandon is really good at finding good deals...he could almost make a living off something like that.

Wedding...

It's going, I'm going to meet with the site lady tomorrow and write a check for the deposit...YAY! Finally something getting done.

Dress shoppingggggg

2009-03-01T18:43:00.000-08:00

I know its been some time since I have last blogged,
I get so wrapped up in what life hands me that I forget to update!!! =]

Don't worry this isn't the dress but I wanted to share some of my day.

I did find a dress that I absolutly fell in love with!

Perfect fit for my shape and it even makes my you know whats look bigger!!! lol

The only problem is the price tag...YEP,
2,9400 is the price of my perfect dress ladies and gents.
How am I supposed to convince dad of that one....hmmm.

Well I went to Gown Boutique of Charleston, its actually on Daniel Island,
Peggy, Grace and Jennifer all went with me, it was my first time looking at dresses.
I wish my mom could have been with me but I was more then thankful for Peggy.
She's such an awesome mother to all three of her kids, and me =]

The lady who helped was named Terri. Her and her daughter own the shop..how cool!
www.gownboutiqueofcharleston.com

I picked an Amy Kuschel dress. Ironically I started picking a lot of her dresses up, Terri said that happens a lot. And after all of what she taught me I started picking up a lot of dresses that looked really similar. I am so happy/thankful I picked that place first...I canceled my other appts because I felt like I found the right place.

"Since I met you" Two year celebration!

2009-01-17T07:08:00.000-08:00

Since I am a complete nerd on top of being head over heals for my guy
I celebrate the day he found me =]
I don't know if its weird I remember that day or not, but I do enjoy making up my own holidays!

I decided to do something not as fancy ish.
First I blind folded him but as you can see it didn't work so we used his hoodie(bad idea, more on that later)

See him grabbing that phone...yea, it has gps, he was tracking our EVERY MOVE!!!!!

So my plan was to drive him around, not give him any idea of where I am going.
Which was only the flea market, but I added a twist.
I have him this recorder thing my mom got me for christmas one year to record classes.
I recorded me telling him -in saw voice- to use the $20 in the envelope attached to the recording thing to find something for his new home, something he needed but he could only spend that much.
We looked for a LONG time, every single hallway.
He was stuck between 3 things
-a sheild
-a porclian monkey
-a sculpture of a tiger
ARE YOU SRS?!?!?!?!?!?!
Out of the MANY things we need still for our new house he picks those things!!! lol
He still wishes he got the shield but maybe one day who knows, when he has his own office.

Finally found something a litte more usefull...

Yes he agreed to smile and pose for this picture, this wasn't a freak accident!!
Its an awesome super duper onion chopper among many things!
Cant wait to use all my new kitchen stuff, I feel so bad for it out there in the garage :(

All in all a good flea market visit, I was pretty happy that he thought it was the best part of the day.
I was not happy he used GPS to cheat!

After we headed to the duck pond for some lunch and duck feeding, this turned out very wrong lol
It was Segal infested! And there were some mean geese!

Yes, that is us hiding in our car!!
Not only that, we had to eat lunch in the car too! Brandon didn't trust to use the tables with them mean birds.

The lunch of champians!!!!

All in all a good day...always have fun with panda (lol)

Christmas!!!

2008-12-27T17:49:00.000-08:00

Wow...where do I start!!!
Its started christmas eve, got off work a little early so that brandon and I could spend some time with his dad and stepmom. And of course things didnt go "exactly" as planned, which means brandon spent most of his afternoon at fedex trying to get my christmas gift so we left later for his dads. So much fun tho, I got to meet the new addition to the family (a rotty)! I can't remember little boys name but he is sosososososo cute!!!!! Can't wait til I get one.
We were SUPPOSED to go to church with brandons mom, but because we were a bit behind schedule we really wanted to make sure we got to spend enough time with Rick and Jenny so we stayed with them a bit longer.

After we headed over to Peggys house for christmas eve fun!
I helped Peggy wrap presents, brandon and his brother put together the hard stuff, kitchen and table. We had this AWESOME ham that peggy got that morning, omg so good!

THEN we watched charlie brown christmas!
THENNNN we had the official pj ceremony, peggy and i had matching pj's, the boys all had matching ones, and gracie had her own cute rain dear pjs :)
It was so awesome to be a part of that, a tradition i would like to start when i have kids one day.

Peggy and meme TOTALY went crazy with brandon and I. They got SO much for our kitchen. So did my dad and his girlfriend...grandparents...we are SET for out new kitchen!
AAAaaaaaand, our neighbors are getting rid of there HUGE COMFY couch, so guess whos getting it....WE ARE!

kitchen stuff

I hope everyone had an awesome christmas, and have a safe new year!!

I cant believe how blessed one person can be.
Even though we aren't rich, eat mostly mac and cheese, and watch wonder years for fun, I find myself falling more and more in love with him, and having more fun then I ever had before.
Its amazing to me how I can just look at him, and be totally content, so in love.
When he wraps his arms around me I feel like the safest girl in the world.
So cliche but I feel this.
When he puts his hands on my face to tell me he loves me, i feel butterflies like when i first saw him...
He is such a beautiful person, inside and out.
He loves people, and he tries to help even if its hard.
He loves the lord, and what is more attractive than someone who puts God first.
My life is just a total blessing, and I am so thankful.

Love you Brandon.

I love grace

2008-10-11T15:48:00.000-07:00

Just a quick update.
Now I think I drive just fine, others don't agree.
Anyhow, yesterday we went to babysit Grace so that Peggy and Paul could have there anniversery dinner. Brandon was with me. After they left we had planned to go to Meme's to eat dinner and spend some time with her. Walking out to the car we noticed some liquid on the ground, not sure we just drove off without thinking it was anything to serious. On the way back (mind you its ike a min down the road) I noticed I couldnt accelerate, then the brakes locked!!!!! Yep, that was oil that leaked out. I have a HOLE in my OIL...thing. Peggy took us home, we followed the oil trail to what seems to be a pretty harmless rock! We are thinking sense the road is bumby, on a bump down it just pierced the oil...thing.
Sadface :/ I cant drive my new car.

I just got a new book =]

Weighing on my heart.

2008-08-27T18:40:00.000-07:00

Last chance kids.

I've been hearing about it on the radio non stop for the last two weeks or so.
I really think its something im going to do, actually I know im going to.

Last chance kids are boys and girls from around the world who aren't the "cute" little kids that get sponsored right away. They are older, and have a fewer chance of getting sponsored as each day passes.

Think of it like Christmas, when your so excited to give someone a gift that you've planned for so long. Thats what it will feel like every time you sign a check, get a letter in the mail, and know you made a difference in a child's life.

Heres where you go....

Also....
My grandfather is going in for (13) bypass surgery on friday, keep him in your prayers. I believe in prayer for everything.

50% of his heart is not work, and 13 total veins in his heart are 100% blocked. It's a big surgery, but my grandfather is a fighter, I'm sure he will be back to camping in no time.

We picked a date...finally.

2008-08-23T23:57:00.000-07:00

We have decided on......
March 6, 2010!

Thats the day I will become a Dangerfield...(gets giggly)

I also have already found a place, and a menu.

http://www.goodfoodcatering.net/samplemenus.html

select the trip to italy menu =]

Not just I, but brandon, my father, and brandons mother all like
the old santee canal park

http://www.oldsanteecanalpark.org/portal/page/portal/OldSanteeCanalPark/About%20The%20Park/Facility%20Rentals

2008-08-20T19:02:00.000-07:00

2008-08-18T16:41:00.000-07:00

The day before my birthday,
Larry Brandon Dangerfield took me on a date.
We went to Fondually Yours,
my favorite restaurant in Mt.Pleasant.

Thats our chicken broth. =]

After, he took me to IOP
where he stopped on the boardwalk to give my my
birthday present.

It was a marriage proposal!!
And I said yes.

I plan on writing in this daily or as much as I can,
so that my mother and family in Nebraska, and family and friends here, can see the in's and outs of my wedding process!

I'm so excited to get started,
I've been waiting my whole life to plan my very own wedding!

And because I'm a big dork,
this is us on day one of engagement!

He loves me =]
