The Gregdude and I went to our last "singles" activity on Saturday night.
Broom hockey.
It's basically like 4-year-old soccer except substitute adults on ice swinging modified broom sticks and chasing after a smaller ball.
And slipping and sliding and falling all over the place.
In other words, complete chaos.
But a really fun kind of chaos.
(why yes, i AM wearing my byu-i horn crew shirt...100-200 high c's daily).
This is the part where I roll my eyes and mention that my Gregman scored a goal without even looking. I could say that it was one of the coolest moves of the night but his ego doesn't need that...he already knows.
So while I'm really really REALLY REALLY REALLY looking forward to getting married this Friday, I'm also really really really trying to preserve all these feelings right now.
I want to remember everything! I know there are going to be times that test our relationship and maybe even make me question why we're together or why I married him. It's in those times that I wish I could pop a bottle of wedding week and let the future Kyoo drink it all up as a reminder.
I would tuck all this emotion and excitement in my pocket and never let it go!
(warning: commencing a long, sappy paragraph...proceed at your own risk)
I want to remember how I look at my Gregbeau. I want to remember how happy he makes me and all the little things we laugh at together. I want to remember how much I hate saying goodnight and leaving him. I want to remember how right my house feels when he's here. I want to remember how much happier I am when I'm around him. I want to remember that empty spot next to the Caspercar in the driveway and how I longed to have his car parked there too. For good. I want to remember the silly things we fist-bump over. I want to remember how earnestly I prayed for this. I want to remember that final week at work and how hard it was to focus instead of breaking out into giddy excitement. I want to remember that little flutter I get when I think about living with him and setting up our home. I want to remember what it's like to be young and in love.
All this needs to be bottled up to get us thru the lows. Then, as the anniversaries grow in number, I can look back and reflect. "Wow. I thought I loved you a year ago...but I love you so much more now!"
It'll take work, but it's my hope for this marriage.
It's not even Monday and already I feel like this week is going by too fast. What an exciting time!
Have a great day :-)

As I was reading this, I couldn't help thinking back to all of our late night talks at school. I love how perfectly everything is working out for you and how happy you are!
You will remember all that, but you will treasure what you have at that moment in time when you look back even more.
