November 23, 2001

I love Roger so much!  He is all I ever think about.  I just feel so lucky to have him.  I need to be married to him already!  We have 5 more days to go, and I can hardly handle it!  I feel like these next 5 days are going to be the longest days of my life.  Time is just not moving fast enough for me.
I had my last bridal shower last night.  It was a lot of fun.  I love bridal showers that are for me!Roger's mom threw this shower for me.  She doesn't like to play all of the usual games, instead we sat around and talked.  She had questions for me, so everyone could get to know me.  Then there were questions for everyone else, so I could get to know them.  A lot of the questions were about being married, like: "What surprised you the most about your husband after you were married?", "What was the cheapest date and the most expensive date you've gone on?", and "What thing was the hardest for you to get used to about married life?"  I had a lot of fun getting to know everybody.  I also really enjoyed being the center of attention.   My mom came to the shower with me.  All of the other guest were relatives of Roger.
I'm really glad that my mom was able to make it.  My parents left St. George around 12:30pm.  They came, so my mom could attend the shower and they had a funeral to go to the next day.  The funeral was for Grant Maxwell's wife (I don't remember her name. I did not know her very well).  The Maxwells live in the little red house down the lane behind the house I grew up in.  I know Grant Maxwell because he was Grandpa Mathison's fishing buddy.  Anyway... I'm glad my parents are here.  I really miss them when we are not living together.  I'm feeling really grateful right now for the wonderful life that I have been blessed with.  I really want to thank my parents for all that they have done for me.  They are the best parents and they gave me sooo... much!  I love that I was raised in the gospel.  I love the knowledge that I have and I can't wait to get married in the temple and be sealed to my husband forever!
