Sneak Peek

Jamie... SCROLL NO MORE.. you are not allowed to see the dress I picked!!! For those of you interrested in my bridal party colours... we have decided to go the simple route...My sisters have always said I dress like an amish because I like to keep my dresses 4 fingers above the knee instead of four foam finger HANDS above the knee... So...i`ve decided to go with my dress of choice & let the girls pick their colours...It was real tough narrowing it down to THE style.. but the amish & pastel coloured dressed just blew me away & I really think my photographer Brooke ( dear soul!) can capture all their personnalities with them. I told the girls that I decided on this dress because they could definitely wear them again ( great selling point) My 4 sisters & 2 sister in laws wanted to keep their dress a secret because they are just SO thrilled about it!!!! I know its early.. and I really shouldnt be showing it.. but im too darn exciteddd... Here we are... at our fitting...Clearly with MY dress... not one person is going to have a dry eye!!!!!!!

Shay just cant get over how wonderful the purple looks on her!! It really brings such a joy to my heart to see how beautiful she feels in her dress! Stephanie & Michelle are just thrilled and you just couldnt wipe the smiles off their faces.... Nielder on the other hand...are you not happy with the colour you picked??? Your mom did an EXCELLENT job on the flower arrangement too..the ribbon is exceptional! Please let her know that her thank you note is in the maiL!!!!!

Beautiful ladies.. just beautiful.

Spring Break in Houston

These trips do not help the wedding diet.

 BUTT Its a gooood thing I wear the pants in our relationship...otherwise, I think Jamie would of given me the old " its not you.. its me" chat by now.... Sorry for partying

Its amazing how fast time flies when you are having fun!!! You get off the plane... you eat ( clearly I ate for 8) you drink (couple cases here and there) you party & you stain up the lounge chairs outside....I mean...its not like im getting married in a couple months....reallyyy....whats another week of cheating... the old starting my diet on monday is getting a little old I know...but this picture doesnt do ANY justice to my curves... Its too bad Jamie has a concussion or id be dragging him along with me....Good News: On this trip, I did NOT make a hut in the closet. Bad news: I realized Gabriella & Stewie both love Jamie more
 ( secretly... I know they are both just upset I go on road trips and they feel abandoned...cant blame them)

In reality....I`ve been wanting to do something at intermission ever since i`ve seen the crazy things they made people do last year... my talent is limited... I'm medium coordinated even though my dad would laugh at this statement and tell you otherwise... SO, I knew whatever it was I asked OJ to sign me up for.. it had to be something I could have fun with without making Jamie super embarrassed... SO, a couple of the gfs & Brits amazing sister ( my partner) decided to do some SUMO hockey at intermission.. I mean really... could he really be that embarrassed?!! As a matter of fact... before the big event.. he told me to make him proud and I was going out there to win so I had to be serious.. sooo tables have turned...He was the one cheering me on ( I felt the pressure) and I told him to meet me in the wives room after the game....
Heres a small recap of our game..although we did end up in a tie game 2-2... Karine was the only one who didnt fall...but she was not afraid to hip check and knock me down on a breakaway...I forgive but I certainly dont forget!!!

Liquid Courage before the big game!!

I am on the left...I dont want to bragg buttt this could have been a game winning goal had Karine's body not come in contact with mine.

Just dead to the world. Being our own people....Karine didnt get the memo

Jamie was so proud of his big girl!!

The sumos & our wonderful photographers!!!!

Aside from making Jamie proud of this trip, we went to the Rodeo 3 times... We saw Rascall Flatts, Lady Antebellum & the Zac Brown Band... I must admit I have a new obsession with Zac Brown Band...I still secretly think Jamie has been practicing the song Whatever It Is because he is going to sing it at the wedding...Nonetheless... always an amazinggg time... the food is the best/worst thing for you... but whats 3 cheat days in a week...Just have to double up on Gillian workouts when you get home...

I am truly blessed to have met such an amazing group of girls again!!!!
To the Disalvatore family... there are just no words to describe how much you guys mean to us...thank you for letting Jamie live in your new home...lets face it, had he been left on his own.. he clearlyyy would have been sulking over how much he missed me... Stewie Fraser thank you for making me a dog lover... nobody will ever compare to you/ be a better big spoon...

Dear Jamie: Im not sure if we are doing easter gifts or not this yearr.... BUTTT I wont be mad if you want to fly me out one last timeeee... early anniversary present perhaps??? Spare me the chocolate...no pressure.. I love you!!!!

If you want to annoy me...

I know I seem like I am constantly annoyed... but IN REALITY, im really only half kidding when I say I am... ( If I am speaking about Nikki Smith however..I am probably not kidding..and am actually annoyed) jkk you know I love you Nik...you are MEDIUM annoying...However, today three of my most hated words came up in small conversations and I'd like to share them with you ( to warn those who might get a weird response or look from me..) I am not sure why these words bother me... but I cringe thinking of them...

Words that annoy me

Chipotle- absolutely hate when people order a pita and want chipotle sauce... I refuse to put it on anything for the simple reason that I dont want to say the word... SO...if you are around me and you are really itching for it..if you could please do me a favour and just say the orange sauce or whisper it..that would be greatly appreciated!!! The worst is the burrito franchise Chipotle..I dont understand who in their right mind would name their burrito place that?? I mean.. talk about a loss of appetite!

Epic- Apparently its the new popular word for SUCH an amazing time....cant say i`ve ever used it in a sentence/ever will... what happened to "I had such a blast last night"....wayyy better than I had an epic time...sounds so old fashioned...

Ointment- the word just gives me the creeps.

Unbeknownst- Are you kidding me?! We get it...you have great grammar and you are better than me... I cant take this word seriously and if you throw it at me I might laugh in your face...Id prefer if you just kept it simple and told me you didnt know about it instead of being unbeknowst to the situation.... just sayinggg..

Panties- its underwear.

I wont judge you if some of these words happen to slip out...I mean...we are only human. Im sure some of you will make a solid effort to annoy me and throw these words out on the regular...but if we were real friends you would spare me... At least I know you arent all UNBEKNOWNST to the words that annoy me.

Addiction.

Some of you might know this... BUT I am a full blown addict. I never knew what an addiction was until I started using pretty aggressively this summer.... It became a habit... I had to do it twice a day if not more...once in the morning and once at night. It got so severe that I went to the doctors a few months ago... I knowww SHOCKER...but I knew I had a problem...anddd they told me I had to stop or something bad was going to happen....well im writing today because I want to STOP. I feel sorry for anyone that has an addiction because I knowwww I cant go an entire day without it. I think white and its all I want... Jamie and my gf Andrea look at me so akwardly when they see me hide and use.... I mean...its an escape to me...its comforting and it feel great...BUT today I realized I needed to stop before something happens....

       After my trip to Houston which I am going to blog about in a couple days ( clearly) I came home to snow (annoyed) and an annoying fiance telling me he was taking layers off because he was sweating ( even more annoying)..SOO as I was texting him back from the washroom in an annoyed state, I had a moment. I sat in the washroom...looked at my addiction and said thats it... im done with you. So as of today... March 23rd 2011... I am Q-TIP free...apparently those years of using so much made it so you can see the membrane of my ear now...SOO if you see me itching my ears with my eyes shut and with an akward look.. dont judge me.. im going through withdrawl. Let me be my own person and go on with your day. Thank you.

Winnning!

I can't say I have any idea who Charlie Steen is...BUT what I do know is that everyones status or mouth words seem to be about winning...

Sooo...I've been winning in the social department for the last 6 weekends in a row. I mean... between the girls night in london, baby showers, wedding showers & bachelorette party, its been easy to stay busy and enjoy spending time with some of the most DELIGHTFUL people...However,  I am sure Jamie doesnt think hes winning seeing as hes getting the old 2:10am, 2:16am, 2:32am, 2:33am drunken phone calls from me repeating the same story over and over :s ( It's all in good fun Jame..just checking if you are listening... ) I am SO happy for all of my friends who are getting married, have become common law and those who are having small children...I feel like I blink my eyes and a child has popped out or a relationship status has been changed ( nothing makes me happier ladies.. keep it coming!)... Life is just going by SO fast... I actually took a breather today and thought about life ( seeing as I HAVE been social for the last 6 weekends instead of being my own person creeping out hospitals w my sickness)... and out of the blue, I text messaged Nielder to ask her if she was pregnant (shes not) but I keep having dreams shes going to be at my wedding... SO, shes going to remain abstinent...like shes always been... at least until my wedding...I just couldnt picture the night being complete without having a couple coors lights w her..selfish I knowww!!  Now...for those of you who have just had a child ( Shannon, Cassie) & those who are soon...congrats, I couldnt be happier for you!! Actuallyyy.. I just found out I am going to have another nephew in july!!!!

Heres a couple winning highlights of the last couple of weekends...Couldnt be happier to be celebrating all these great events & special moments with you girls <3 Thank you xo

Lyns Bachelorette weekend in Toronto!!!
Lynsey Carlton meets Randy Bowles. I've known Lyns ever since I started competing against Shay to see who could have the blondest hair. Shay went to Hair Professionals... so I went to Hair Professionals... im SUCH a follower...welll...Lynsey owns the hair salon & let me tell you ( no im not advertising for her and she hasnt paid me) but she is the BEST...although, she hasnt magically made my hair thick yettt...shes just a wizard in the salon & we've been able to make my hair medium thick...as you are all able to see... Lynsey is best friends with my sooon to be sister in law Lynsey...long story short... shes a dear soul & her wedding festivities have been SO much fun...ive also met a new best friend...not replacing my others.. just adding one... Aunt Cathie<3 !!!

We MAYY have gone to McDonalds before the martini party at Lynseys aunts ( Cathie my new bff) on friday...BUT...I think I burned the 1,000 calories laughing to the point that I may have lost a few forehead veins..Between the explanation of a few ( small tricks) and the facial expressions and gestures of these ladies... I pretty muchh fell in love w Scottish accents and this wonderful bunch of ladies!!! Heres a small recap of a veryyy eventful weekend...

The beautiful Bride to be..drinking her "Pinky Martini" friday night

 Popping some SERIOUS forehead veins....

The Wedding Partyyy!!

Flava Flav w the checklist & pen....SUCH a dud. ( the list was completed!!)

Ridding the pink Kareokee short bus....

  On the short bus.....

The Serenade to just the way you are....beautifully danced Lyns!!!! YOu'd make Bruno real proud!

I mayyyy have secretly been upset with Pat ( Lyns's mom..who is also one of my new fav humans) when she "borrowed" the mic from me while I was singing Another Day In Paradise- Phil Collins....he just puts me right in my element... I got over it.. but not without a couple FAILED attempts at stealing the mic back...love ya Pat...you didnt know.. its okay!!

SOOO the night was amazing... BUT ( always that but...) Stef Walters & I were ripping up the dance floor pretttyyy hard at the end of the night..figured why not let loose... soooo I bent down pretty severely to pick up my pen while doing the bend and snap... and RIPPED OPEN my dress in the back....to the point where i had to penguin walk to the washroom because I was now wearing a hospital gown & was exposed to the public....I was MORTIFIED... THANK GOD for Stef & her nylons...I rushed to the washroom and put them on under to damage control...lets keep in mind.. I am 5'10 and shes probably 5'5 sooo they were stretched to the point where it may have looked like I was wearing a mini diaper... Nonetheless...She saved the day & I owe her mini nylons.


Michelle Moons & Baby Isabella<3

Although you may be asking yourself WHAT the ocassion was to this reunion...some of us (Michelle) can hide a baby quite well!! Michelle is blessed with skinny mother syndrome ( mustttt be nice right)... Shes going to be giving birth March 26 to a little girl ( Isabella)...if she shows up on schedule...seeing as she is Michelle's daughter...Im guessing she may be a little late ( love you Michelle..BUT sometimes you can be a littlee late...we will blame it on the fact that you live in Forest tho) Isabella already has clothes up to 6 years old & shes already spoiled... Being back with the girls to celebrate Michelles baby was sooo much fun.. I mean.. with the state of my health at that time, youd think Id go home and call er a night...well noo noo noo...I ignored my left tonsil and away I went to Joe Kools w some of my fav humans..Thank you girls for a wonderful night in london...our reunions are always the BEST!! Michelle I cannot wait to meet Isabella...and I already know the boys will be lined up at your door around the time kids start dating.. which is like 6 now.. so good luck girl!!! love ya

Debb's Bday In Windsor
Everyone loves a Debbie... shes not a typical Debbie.. although she has just stopped smokingggg which could maybee make her a little bit of one...but ONLY for this month......probably one of the nicest humans you would ever meet.. if you had the priviledge to meet her...Umm this night is actually the reasonnn why I got severely sick...I didnt get the memo we were leaving the hotel at 2am ( I was on the phone w Jamie being super annoying) to get food... so I walked down to the lobby and apparently cruised the streets of Windsor in minus degree weather& in a small snowstorm...I did NOT tell my doctor the exactt same story though..anyways just a bunch of beauties that I LOVEEE from Stokes by the Bay.. Such a great night...I also met up w my besties from winds.. Jessica Koehl<3 Thanks ladies..not for the cold, but the good times!!!

Debbie.. what a flippin stunner you are!!!!!! You are SO winning!

Everybody's a WINNNER!!!

Thank you girls SO much for keeping me social!! I am off to Texas on wednesday so I wont be blogging as much.. SOOO for those of you who might think im annoying, you are off the hook for a bit... To my lovely brides, birthday girls, besties, mama's, mothers and aunts... love you guys, thanks for keeping the smile on my face<3 xoxo

Meeting: Jamie Kerry Fraser.

I always pictured myself with a 6"5, dark haired, dark eyed business man...something a long the lines of Enrique Iglesias....So the search began...2006 was my funniest year, as a person. I had no style, I was so broke from school, I lived off of broccoli and cheese rice.... box hair dye & buying stone purses from bentleys was just my only option. I wasnt really looking...I was being my own person... Shay came down a lot to come visit Nielder and I in Windsor and we just laughed at my situation....clearly I didnt find love that year!

      Standing on the bar...not dancing... must of had some courage w that beautiful 2006.. 7$  Stone purse!!

Sooo...Summer of 2007, Lindsay introduced me to one of her best guy friends. Jehann and I were at Stokes by the bay drinking mini pitchers on a thursday night and along came Nielder bringing over her strawberry blonde friend who could barely open his eyes and had a beat red face...in his defense...he had just finished a long year of hockey.. I actually looked over at Jehann and said "oh dear...that guy looks like a mess!"...I always knew who Jamie was from hockey in sarnia.. and although he claims he had no idea who I was...I STILL dont buy it today.  So we meet...and Jehann and I go off and do our own thing while Nielder & Jame are up at the bar...next thing you know...Jamie has fallen face first on the dance floor with his hands in his pockets ( Jehann and I were hysterically laughing at this point but we felt bad)....and little did I know...I had JUST met my soon to be husband!!!

A couple weeks later.. we meet at the bar.. we end up in every picture together ( so clearly I looked past the falling face first incident which he denies 1000%) and Nielder invited both of us to Norms for a night of erotic photo hunt, guitar hero and a sleep over ( I had the floor, Nielder the chair & Jamie the couch.. dont get any ideas here!)...He redeemed himself.. actually we become instant best friends..he calls me Prev, I call him Frase.  I am really starting to dig his strawberry blonde locks and well... he has now declared his love for me to Nielder after our guitar hero night.....

hahaha I miss that triangle beard Jame!!!! Clearly a selling point!!!



Sooo..we`ve become best friends...with the odd make out session here and there ( we are all human!) We would spend the whole day hanging out and then we would meet up at 3rd row ( under the bridge, near the flag, 3 rows down on the water...) and have small picnics and chats about life...3rd row is actuallyyyy where Jamie proposed...we hadnt been since we were just friends...

We were best friends for about 4 months when he made me a construction paper ticket to come visit him in New York City if I followed his rules and regulations ( sorry Jame).... It was the cutest thing ive ever seen... I may bring it out at the wedding.. I flew out to New York City w my gf Michelle and although we werent dating yet ( Michelle was giving him hope)...when I came home to a card and a bear in the mail saying thank you for coming.. I JUST knew he was the one....well I ALWAYS knew... it was just nice to see a guy hang around for as long as he did...so in  TEXT message... I told him we should probably date... and thats where it all started :) I mean.. week 1 and I had already made an appearance on "cribs" as Jamies gf when they showed a video of their house & zoomed in on a picture of me as the "new girlfriend"..things were getttinggg serious!!! He flew me out to nyc probably 10 times in the 2 seasons he was there..suprising me w confirmation flights in my e-mail... i mean.. between that and his song Prev Fallin'.. I KNEW he was a keeper....

Although he did shave his head and dye it blonde like Eminem one summer :s.. Enrique has nothing on my strawberry blonde hockey player of a man.  You know its love when you laugh after every fight ( even when you make small huts in the closet... only to wake up to ur other half sleeping beside you on the floor saying " nice guy eh") & when you can still have the most fun with each other...He mayyy seem soooo tough on the outside... putting on a front like he wears the pants...BUT, hes a softy at heart and its not every day you find a guy like that...

Love you Jamie...you really are the best of friend anyone could ever have!!! You will always be my lazybones & ill always be your cement head xoxo 

      

To the world you might be one person, but to me.. you are the world!

I AM SOOOO ROMANTIC :)
