Funny story

Today is jean day at work, I'm always super happy to throw on jeans and a nice top and wear that to work instead of slacks and uncomfortable button ups. So I put my favorite jeans on, from No Fear with a bunch of cute rhinestones on the back pockets - not like children jeans but like Miss Mes, and they have the thick white stitching on semi dark denim. They are long and flared so I cuff the bottoms and they make me look tall and skinny. So cute and SO comfortable. Well I the donut I ate this morning (I know, BAD SUMMER, but I can't resist when a co-worker brings in breakfast) must have not agreed with me because when I bent over to pick up a sales packet at work, the butt in my jeans ripped! Not like a small rip that would be easily be covered with my long shirt, no... a HUGE skin barring rip. So naturally, I sent my boss an e-mail informing her of my accident and left. Luckily the mall where No Fear, or excuse me, XRyders, is, is close to work so I went in and bought a  new pair of jeans... And a cute new phone case. They were my favorite jeans and I am sad to see them go, but I have had them for 3 years, so maybe it was time.

That's not it...

I went to have sushi to have lunch with the girls. California Roll and half an Alaska roll later I needed a refill on my iced tea. The lady poured it, I stirred in my sweet n' low and took a drink.. a fly. A fly was in my tea. I felt something hard and crunchy and I spit it out. Ryna looked at it & told me it was a FLY! I freaked out! AND the restaurant didn't even want to comp. My meal.

So that's how my Friday the 13th has been.(:

Actually, I think I lied

In my previous post I said we were probably going to wait until next weekend to get married to involve our parents, well last night he told me he wanted to get married Saturday. AS IN TOMORROW!!!! He wants to get married tomorrow so on Monday he can go back to his recruiter and sign papers and get ASVAB & MEPs dates. This is all okay with me as we are getting the ball rolling with the NAVY and the sooner he leaves the sooner he is home and the sooner we start our lives together. So as of Tomorrow (not sure what time yet) I will be a Wife. His Wife. It really is exciting.

There, of course, has to be a catch. My family will not be in town, and I told my dad our plans this morning and I could tell he was really upset as he wants to be there. Its really just signing a piece of paper, right? It breaks my heart to know that he is sad, my dad has always been such a big part of my life and one of my biggest supporters. I know it will blow over and we will always be okay and when he walks me down the isle for our big wedding it will make up for this. I just really wish he was going to be here tomorrow. Fiancé's parents will also probably not be able to make it. His mom has to work until 8pm and his dad goes to work at 2am. So we will probably ask a friend to be our witness and just go to the courthouse,  get married and then maybe go to dinner?

I never really saw myself having a courthouse marriage, so its a little depressing thinking, Saturday morning we will wake up, get breakfast, do a little grocery shopping, clean my car, get married, go to dinner, rent a movie. I know we will have our dream wedding soon though!

"I can't wait to be your husband"

Pretty much the greatest things to hear from my fiancé. Pretty soon he will be signing papers, and taking tests, and getting physicals but before all that happens... he will be signing his life away... to me(:

We have this big wedding planned for March, which I hope will still happen, but before we can have our big wedding we have to have a little awkward courthouse wedding. We were told by his recruiter that things would be easier for us (and the NAVY) if we got married before fiancé did any of his paperwork. It's not the ceremony or the big reception that matters really, its becoming his wife and I am going to be his wife a lot sooner than we thought!

He suggested we do a drive thru wedding (this is Vegas!), but I think our families wouldn't appreciate us getting hitched without them there. So we are probably going to wait until next weekend when my dad is in town, go to the courthouse and make it official.

I'm excited!(:

Don't let anything get me down

I have so much, stop wanting more.
Cherish everything that I am, and everything that I have.
I chose my life, I will always choose my life.

Love my today, look forward to my tomorrow, and don't let anyone or anything make me believe otherwise.

Talkin 'bout My Love.

Ever been around someone you just love so much, you honestly don't even know what to do with yourself? You want to squeeze them, and hold them and kiss them and play with them? You pretty much want to spend every second with them even if you are both laying in bed instagraming, tweeting and looking up new car parts. Even if he keeps jumping on top of you asking if you are still able to breath, crying because you feel like you are going to die beneath his weight (and because you picked this play fight, but you can't win, so you pretend you are hurt). Well I have this, and I love this, and my fiancé is the best thing that has come into my life.

Our story is cute and simple. We met, we dated, we kissed, we loved, we fought, we moved in together, we got engaged, we are planning our lives together.

We try new things together, we cook together, we clean our little apartment together, we plan our wedding together and all the wonderful things that will come after.

Thinking about him being gone for Boot Camp and then his deployments scares me. I know our love is strong enough to make it. I know I love him and will always wait for him. I just haven't slept without him by my side in so long. I know we still have a while before he actually leaves for Boot Camp, but... time flies so fast these days. I will support him. I will miss him.

Just thought I'd provide a cute little picture of the Mr. And I.

Hello Soon To Be Failes!

I have always been a talker and a writer, thus, the creation of this blog. I plan to be a ranter, a raver, a bragger, a complainer and storing it ALL right here. For now anyway, this is just the beginning so we will see where it goes.

Lets start with an introduction, shall we?

My name is Summer, exactly like the season- I was born in November. I currently reside in Las Vegas, where I spend 9 hours every Monday - Friday complaining about my job. More to follow when I am out of this place. I live with my wonderful Fiancé and our cat, Agent, in a pocket size apartment that I am obsessed with decorating. I have one younger sibling who could probably succeed better at my college courses that I do, and a mom and dad that I love immensely. We moved to Vegas from a small, pretty much off-the-map, town in Illinois about 6 years ago.

My fiancé is joining the Navy here soon, making me a Soon To Be Navy Wife. I am more than excited. This is a chapter of our lives that I have been waiting for, for quite some time now. I started this blog to ramble about my daily life and experiences. As we will soon be introduced to a whole new way of life, documentation is necessary. I may reminisce, but I plan to blog about married life, and especially married life with a service member in the Navy.  I'm not expecting simple, and I am not expecting complete bliss but I will keep an open mind. I will be a loyal and supportive wife, and I will stay optimistic.

I'm a crafty individual, and as I said before I love to decorate, so expect to see a few projects posted. I also love to cook and try new foods. I am a smart ass, but I like everyone (in most cases), I am very emotional, and I love to smile.

Lets hope I keep this blogging thing up.
