Make You Feel My Love

I am basing today's title on Lea Michele's version of Adele's song (the one she did for the Cory Monteith tribute episode on Glee). I re-listened to that song and even though the episode aired several weeks ago, it still makes me cry. Yes. I admit that I cry over tv shows and what happens in them, but this was more than a television show. The actor who played Finn actually did pass away (last July) and so they had to have his character pass away too. But the reason it makes me cry is because Lea was dating Cory in real life, and their characters were on-again-off-again. After reading all there was on the episode, I found that most scenes/songs were done on one take because everyone would leave the set crying. Awful. Just awful. And hearing Rachel (aka Lea) say "He was my person" and she's scared she'll forget his voice and face. It hits home. It reminds me of the pain when Travis died and then I think of what I would do if Justin died. Oof. Breaks my heart. Like, I know we all die and that everyone has their time, but I pray to God that it is honestly not for a very very long time. Because that pain is so incredibly real and true and harsh. But anyway, I loved the realness in her song. So I am blogging about it to remind myself of it, because the episode was a wonderful tribute.

Anyway, to things not so sad...

I'm definitely in wedding planning mode. Oh yah. I'm elbow-deep. That actually is a terrible statement. It makes it sound really disgusting. A little uncomfortable as well. In reality, it's going better than I expected. I mean... I never have imagined wedding planning to go terrible (cuz heck, I get to marry Justin!) but I also had to change my thoughts on how to handle planning a wedding with Justin in Boston for pretty much the entire engagement. All things considered, the planning is probably right on schedule. December will be overly busy since Justin's only home for a few weeks, but it's nothing we can't handle.

The newest thing I guess, although I was trying to not make this ALL wedding related (failed at that one), Justin and I received our engagement photos back from Megan! and Oh. My. Gosh. They are absolutely perfect. I will share some, have no fear. Although if you are Facebook friends with me... you've already seen them. Oh well. Your loss (or gain depending on how you look at it).

This one is they kind you print and frame
Besides wedding planning, honestly nothing is new. Bummer I know. I'm still working, still exercising, still getting to see my darling little V every week (or more!) and just doing my thing.
Last second shot... incredibly perfect

And just to top this blog post off, Justin comes home in 5 1/2 weeks! I can totally do this!!
 
Look at the way he looks at me...
Love. Love love love.
That's a legit happy face.

Beautiful
