<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">i wish i could just relive it over & over!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">being married is <u>so</u> fun</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">& i <span style="font-size: large;">LOVE</span> living in our cute house!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">in other news..</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">the hubby got on a fire station!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">he's working part time for</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">washington terrace fire.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">he loves it so far </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">but the adjustment to being a fire-wife</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">has been rough!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">he works two other jobs.. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">so i rarely see him.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">he's been picking up the night shift,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">that way he won't have to take the day off</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">at his full time job.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">let me just say...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">sleeping along <span style="font-size: large;"><b>sucks</b></span>!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">but i'm grateful he's so selfless</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">& has a job where he can really help people.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">november bugged me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">all of the gratitude blog posts bugged me.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">it's just sad to me that it all turns into</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">a competition or bragging.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">& why does everyone think you can only</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">show your gratitude in november?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">i was always taught..</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">that <b>actions speak louder than words</b>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">if you're really grateful for this or that..</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">prove it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

only <b>16</b> days until i marry the man of my dreams.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
how crazy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we've been engaged since 11/11/11,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and a long engagement has been good for us.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
we were able to buy a house in that time!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and we were able to really enjoy being engaged.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
when we got engaged, we had been dating 2 & 1/2 years..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
by then we obviously knew we wanted to be together.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
being engaged, it's a whole different level of love.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
being <u>so</u> in love is wonderful.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i keep telling myself that i just need to take it day by day,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
because once it's all over.. i'll wish it didn't go by so fast.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but i can't help but be excited to be this guys wife!</div>

<div style="text-align: right;">
today after hearing about a few different people..</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
and the trials they are facing in life..</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
i was reminded how truly blessed i am.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
sometimes i look past it much too often.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
i am so lucky to be where i'm at in my life.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
last week i celebrated my 3 years of dating the love of my life.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
i get to marry him in <b>104</b> days.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
i am so excited.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
we have a beautiful <b>home</b> together.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
my family <b>loves</b> and <b>supports</b> me.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
my friends are <b>always there</b> for me.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
i am in good <b>health</b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
i have a great <b>job</b> and work for an <b>amazing</b> company.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
i could go on.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
i must remind myself..</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
that things could always be worse.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
"because if your daughter tells you that she still really loves you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
even though you said a bad word after you stubbed your toe</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
then you still walk her to get ice cream</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
even though it's rainy</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and you let her hook the house key to her belt loop</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
because it makes her feel important</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and you let her jump through the puddles</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
because pants wash and tacky $4 thrift store boots<br />
aren't that important</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and you let her get extra hot fudge</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
because someday she won't be able to without feeling guilty</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and you let her eat it all in front of you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
even though you went vegan this week</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and it almost kills you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and you let her talk about how much fun she had</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
at her dad's girlfriend's house</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
without getting butthurt</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
because you're just happy that she's happy and that's all,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and she's so excited to see you after a few days</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
that she won't stop telling you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you're the best mom ever</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and kissing the hand you're holding</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to protect her from traffic about twenty times in a row</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and there are a million reasons not to do anything</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
or to get upset and uptight,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but if at the end of the day</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
all you have are some dirty pants,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a lost house key,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and a kid on a sugar rush</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-you're doing okay.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it's all okay.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
count what you've gained, not what you've lost."</div>

dear grandma,<br />
<br />
it's been a whole year since we lost you. a year since <a href="http://www.kenzie-paige.blogspot.com/2011/05/i-will-remember-you.html" target="_blank">this post</a>. i can't believe it. so much has happened in a year. so much i wish that you were here for to share with us. kyle and i got the keys to our house yesterday. you'd love it! it's so adorable. i wish so bad that you could watch me walk down the isle in september. i know you'll be there.. just in a different way. i'll save you a seat on the front row. :) i miss having lunches with you. i miss your hugs. i miss your stories and laughs that we shared. i miss you so much grandma. some days i feel like there is a weight in my chest because i miss you so much. sometimes when helping older people at work i find myself just wanting to cry. cause they are someones grandma/grandpa and they love them as much as i love you. i am very glad you get to be with grandpa though. and that you're pain-free. here's to the rest of my life, living to honor your memory. stay with me grandma. love you much!<br />
