Wedding Present Ideas

So throughout this whole wedding process I've discovered some good wedding gift ideas that I can pick from and use in the future. Some of these I wouldn't have thought about but could always come in handy after being married and these gift cards would never be wasted.
Think of some others too I could add:

- gas giftcard if they have a car
- Home Depot gift card because something can always be updated or fixed
- stamps and thank you notes, maybe for like a bridal shower or something
- maybe gift cards to places to eat
- Walmart gift cards
- Costco whatever (membership or gift card)

BYU Football, I will always be a fan

Today started off BYU 2010 Football. I've missed it, I used to have an internship last year for Athletic Marketing and used to be on the field which was SWEET! I would help market in different ways with doing tailgating things, help with promotions during the game, prepare the loges etc. Being on the field was the best, Cosmo was there along with some of the famous football people who would visit.
BYU won today!!! It was so much fun seeing everyone in their BYU shirt everywhere I went. Even though I'm graduated, still a fan. BYU has shaped me completely in who I am today because of the goals and hard work I put in coming here, and then attending the University and learning from the best about how I can live my life and be a better person especially with the Savior as my foundation. Even though I might be considered a Zoobie, I love BYU because of the way it has shaped my life for the better. I will always be a fan

Bridal Survival Kit


Here's my cute shoes. Yes they might kill me by the end of the day, but at least I will be somewhat normal height. I can't believe it's coming!

Things are falling into place and good news... I haven't been stressed yet. My sister is in town too so we've been going to the gym and running a lot which has been awesome.


I have only 25 things left to do on theknot.com which still sounds like a lot but I'm good. The cutest thing I'm putting together is a "Bridal Survival Kit" which will have essentials for that day:


lipstick
bobbypins
tissue
extra shoes
phone numbers I need
pen
mint/gum
advil or something
waterbottle
snack

Cute party favors

These were at the shower and were soooo cute. My aunt ordered these from a website
www.bigdotofhappiness.com

Read the back look how cute! Serving size, Fiber, Total Fat and everything are about love ingredients on the back

Inspiration for the wedding Colors: Utah Jazz

Before we were engaged we were watching the Jazz and it dawned upon me... these are my wedding colors.

I saw the NAVY...

... the silver...

... and the beautiful sky blue and I knew I wanted these for my colors.


Good work they look great together. I'm excited to be using them and I think the colors are elegant together and are me!

My bouquet ideas

Yes I will be doing my bouquet! Two things I've really wanted to do are a wedding scrapbook, and some of the flowers like my bouquet for my own wedding. I've made many bouquets and can basically be given a picture and create that.
These are some pictures that I want my bouquet to look like. For this one I love all of the roses that are used and want to make a majority of mine with cream/very very light pink centered roses.

This picture is pretty close too. You can see the roses and other flowers (I'll use different ones like Lisianthus, Hydrangeas, maybe eonies in mine. I have lace from my dress left over so I will wrap my bouquet in that alone with Swarvowski crystals like they have dangling from this bouquet. I also love the Lemon Leaves bordering the bottom.

I might change my mind, but I am going to add just a touch of green to the cream/pinks and add some green Hydrangeas so the pallet will be like this.

Another beautiful picture where you can see the creams and more of the very very light pinks from the roses and other flowers. This bouquet looks huge, mine will be a little smaller and won't have some of these flowers like Ranuculus.

Dream Cruise on Woodward Ave.


Every year in August, Michigan holds the "Woodward Dream Cruise" where cars pile up on Woodward Avenue to show off how old, new, or expensive their automobile is. The busy 50mph road turns into a dead stop from all of the cars and spectators are found for miles up and down the road to admire some amazing cars.

It's awesome because the church building and temple are on that road and we used to pull up chairs and blankets on its lawn to watch the cars.

This year we were on Woodward in the before and after and we saw a lot of awesome cars. I was interested and checked out the most expensive cars 2009-2010. Check them out:

Most expensive cars 2009-2010

1. Bugatti Veyron for $1.7 million
2. Lamborghini Reventon: $1.6 million
3. McLaren F1: $970,000
