Florida!

So, I made it all the way to Miami, Florida to see Tom. I've been here about a week and a half now and am having so much fun! Here's a list of things I've done here:

-firstly, it was amazing to see Tom again. It was wonderful being reunited with him and was like when we first started dating all over again. I thought I realized how much I missed him, but I didn't- not really. The plane rides were long for me, but well worth the money and early morning (5:40am flight!) to make it to Miami.

-we went on an airboat ride in the Everglades (saw some scary alligators...ah!)

-explored the Florida Keys with the Vasquez family (including the famous 90 mile mark from Cuba)

(it was beautiful and Claudia, Danny and Alo were great company for Tom and I)

-went to the beach here in Miami. It's lovely, warm, and wave-less.

-met Tom's parents and learned to play (and win) dominos with them.

-took care of Titan, who we will probably be adopting (he's the cutest puppy in the world).

-met Tom's friends, including his best Seth and his fiance Jessica. They are so much fun and I've loved hanging with them and others.

-have enjoyed being reunited with Tom and spending every waking moment with him...mushy, I know (sorry)

I will be here for about one more week and then we have a long road trip all the way back to Rexubrg, Idaho. Basically, life is good. I miss my family and friends back in Arizona, but the trip here has been fabulous and well worth it. I look forward to my future, but I'm loving relaxing here in Miami for a little while longer.

P.S. Ariana's wedding was wonderful. I'm so happy for her and Tyler and wish them the best...forever!

Plans and Pains

Things to be Excited for (in order of their happenings):

-Decorating for Ariana's wedding tonight

-Being a bridesmaid for Ariana

-Ariana's actual wedding/luncheon/reception

-Flying on a plane for more than an hour and a half (a layover? Crazy talk!)

-Getting to Miami- a place I've never been!

-Seeing Tom again (Oh, how I miss him)

-Spending time at the Atlantic Ocean; I've only swam in the Pacific in California's murky waters

-Spending time with Tom

-Meeting Tom's parents

Things Not to be Excited for:

-Getting my wisdom teeth removed

-Leaving my family again until Thanksgiving

This is the gist of my happenings:

Ariana's wedding is tomorrow and I'm completely ecstatic about it! It's crazy to think that she'll be married- Mrs. Miller instead. Nuts! But awesome. I'm very excited for her and Tyler. I'm excited to be a bridesmaid for the third time (bad omen, anyone?).

Anyway, next week I will be getting my wisdom teeth out. Yuck! I'm not excited, but I'll be sure to post an embarrassing picture if my cheeks swell up enough.

Then, the week after I'll be going to Miami to see the sweetest boyfriend in the world. I'm thrilled to see Tom again. I'm also happy he's from Florida seeing as we'll have a blast on the beach and in the sun. That's my life as of right...now.
