17 more days until I am Mrs. Benjamin Beck.
I couldn't be happier.

Our engagement pictures turned out pretty great I think.

It's my birfday!
Twenty two whole years old.
BJ was going to take me horseback riding at Kevin's ranch but the weather is too yucky.
So he's coming over to make me breakfast. :)
Then we're going with the fam to see The Alps IMAX and eat on The Hill. 
It's weird waking up all alone on my birthday and not having birthday breakfast on the "You are special today!" plate.  Kind of lonely...but this will be my last birthday waking up alone! :)

Wedding planning is coming along.  My mom and I drove up to Chicago last week and ordered my dress.  I seriously love it.  We're getting the invites out soon. BJ designed and hand made them all.  He is SO fantastic.

I'm stealing this from James...because it's so silly and probably quite accurate:



haha..silly.

Anyway.....Thanks for giving birth to me, mom!

haha.

Well folks....time for another update!

Sooo...I'm engaged and it's pret-ty suhweet.
Alot of planning.  I've never planned anything bigger than a tea-party in my life...and that was when I was like 6.  So this is alot bigger, and alot more expensive than lipton tea and petite fours.
IT'S FUN THOUGH. Don't get me wrong.  I have found myself stressing...on occasion.  But then I remember that in five months I will be married to the man that God had hand picked out for me.  I love that thought.  I cherish it.

SO....July 6th is the proposed date. 
We picked out a wonderful spot about an hour from where we live in Missouri.  It's at a beautiful park. Unfortunately, it only seats around 200 people.  And with BJ's mammoth family and my fairly large one, we won't be able to invite as many people as I would like. I would like to just put an invitation on here to each and every one of you, but I can't.  I will put pictures up eventually though and you can share the moment with me that way.

Work is pretty sweet.  Gettin a raise soon.  HALLA.  Just sent in my benefits paperwork so now I can visit the doctor for the first time in over a year.  niiice.  I've managed to sway quite a few of my little high school fashion reps from being brainwashed media-following supporters of Obama to becoming quite the little conservatives.  "What?? You mean like Democrats want more government!?  But like, I don't even like the government!  I just like Obama because he's cool and everyone else does and Madonna told me to!"  haha.  Ooooh youth.

I got my bridesmaid dresses from Delia's so I saved like hundreds of dollars doing that. haha.  I looove them though.  Very casual, very me and Beej.  Still have yet to pick my own dress out.  You would think that since I've known I was going to marry BJ for over three years now that I would have all this stuff decided already.....Not I.  All I knew was that I wanted it outside in God's beautiful creation.  And that is where it will be.

Enough for now.  Here's a few pics to leave you with. 






 I was sad about him killing the bunny.  I wished it was a big ugly goose. :(
