It's crunch time this week for our big weekend! We have just a couple things to do before Saturday but it get done asap! I am seriously smiling at work ALL DAY and I just think it's funny! haha... I hasn't really "hit me" that Fili and I are actually getting married because we've been together as "boyfriend and girlfriend" for SO LONG and for it to change as us being "husband and wife"??? It's just crazy!!! Everyone keeps asking if I'm excited or excited to be FINALLY married and all I say is...."hmmm yeah? I'm excited but nothing will really "change" it's just my LASTNAME!" haha... But I am way excited no doubt! :)
My bridal shower is Thursday night and I can't waaaait to see all my girl cousins and friends! :) I haven't really seen anyone in FOREVER so I'm way excited! My mom's sister from Hawaii will be here with their cousins tomorrow morning and they are so entertaining! They're so excited to come out and celebrate and especially to party with my mom! I'm really happy that their coming though because then my mom won't have to stress out as much over the food and other stuff she might be dramatic about. MOTHERS! Aren't they a blessing??? hehe:) So, instead she can PARTY and have fun with everything! Along is our long lost sister Robyn...she is coming down as well from the 808 and is coming to bless us all!! When she comes out to see us she always makes it worth while! She's our shopaholic mama! :) So, it'll be "girl's day/hours" when she does touchdown tomorrow! WE CAN'T WAIT!
My 1st cousin Rosie is coming down as well and I can't wait to see her!!!! :) She's just been there for me for so long and she's so great! She's another BIG SISTER for that I look up to besides my sweet sister Tangi. She keeps it real and loves everyone! She's way excited and Fili and I love when she comes down! :) We really wish her mom could come but she has another wedding to go to. Fili met Rosie's mom and thought she was my mom's TWIN! haha...Everyone THINKS they are but my aunty Ruby is the youngeR sister! But if anyone saw them for the first time they would think they were TWINS FORREALS! Aunty Ruby is another mom to me as well and always has been! Whenever I go to California she always looks at me and ask if I'm hungry!!! haha...from when I arrive to when I leave we go to JACK IN A BOX! It never gets old! My siblings and I are very close with our first cousins but aunty ruby and her kids are probably THEE CLOSETEST! :')
New Years Eve I got to see my Uncle Leni (my mom's younger brother) and I asked him if he got the Saturday of our wedding off since we worked Saturdays-Wednesdays and he said that he couldn't take off but that he would have the food he was assigned to do there at the wedding for us. After that day I never really talked to him because I was really bummed out about it all. Uncle Leni is another "Dad" to me and he's always been my favorite uncle while growing up. So, Yesterday I was sitting at work and my cellphone rang and it was my Uncle Leni. I was nervous for some reason but I just answered! He called to tell me that he BEGGED his boss to let him off this Saturday for the wedding because he wanted to be there for me during the wedding. When he said that I teared up and smiled! :') He said that as long as it DOESN'T SNOW Saturday his boss said to go to the wedding! So we're hoping for the sun to come out and SHINE Saturday so he can be there with us! My uncle has always been there for me but every since he moved out here to Utah he's been the BIGGEST SUPPORTER through everything I do. Him and his wife are another set of parents to me and they are great examples. :)
Last night we met up with our photographer Kassie Feinga. She's our cousin that Tangi and I knew while dancing for our aunt's show. She is such a great photographer and we thought of her once we wanted to get married. She's way excited just as much as we are and we can't wait for her to take our pictures! :) Thank you Sodapop Photography! :)
We meet up with the bishop tonight to go over our marriage papers and where, when, and what time our wedding ceremony is so we'll figure all that out today!! :)
What's left to do??
- We need to go exchange some of the vases we have for centerpieces for other vases
- We need to go and get some ribbon for the vases
- Get shoes to wear Pick up
- Fili's Tux. on Thursday
Anyways---we're so so sooooo excited to see everyone! That's all for now! I'll try to post more photos of things with the wedding planning when I can :)
