• I'm going to be grouping the last few days of the blog challenge together.

Jace and i have a few songs that have special meaning to us. There was one song that he (while we were dating) told me reminded him of me. He sang it to me all the time, its less now, but every now and then he busts it out and it makes me smile. Its by the Beatles and we used it in the portion of our video that was us dating/engaged. Here are the lyrics:

I've just seen a face,
I can't forget the time or place
Where we just met.
She's just the girl for me
And want all the world to see
We've met, mmm-mmm-mmm-m'mmm-mmm.

Had it been another day
I might have looked the other way
And I'd have never been aware.
But as it is I'll dream of her
Tonight, di-di-di-di'n'di.

Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

I have never known
The like of this, I've been alone
And I have missed things
And kept out of sight
But other girls were never quite
Like this, di-di-di-di'n'di.

Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Yeah!
Bup-a-lup-bup!

Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

I've just seen a face,
I can't forget the time or place
Where we just met.
She's just the girl for me
And want all the world to see
We've met, mmm-mmm-mmm-di-di-di.

Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

Oh, falling, yes I am falling,
And she keeps calling
Me back again.

The other song that is special to us is what everyone would consider "OUR" song. There wasnt anything special about it to begin with...the song wasnt playing when we first met, or kissed, or when i knew he was the 'one', but one night we decided we should have a song and perused the internets till we found one we both liked and decided was a good fit. Kinda lame, huh? But the song is awesome and we love it. Here are the lyrics (and if you listen to it online make sure you play the acoustic version. thats what gives it such a good sound). Its by Relient K.




"The Best Thing"

It's been a year
Filled with problems
But now you're here
Almost as if to solve them
And I can't live in a world without you now

All my life
I've been searching for you
How did I survive
In this world before you
Cause I don't wanna live another day without you now

This is the best thing
The best thing that could be happening
And I think you would agree
The best thing is that it's
Happening to you and me

All I'm gonna have
Is all that you can give me
And I'll give right back
Everything I have in me
Cause nothing ever felt as right
As this does right now

I'll go back to before we met
Try and erase the past
Try harder to forget cause
Nothing will ever be as good as here and now

Cause when I looked into your eyes
And you dared to stare right back
You should've said "Nice to meet you, I'm your other half"

And this is the best thing
The best thing that could be happening
And I think you would agree
The best thing is that it's happening
This is the best thing (the best thing)
The best thing that could be happening (the best thing)
And I think you would agree (whoooaaa whooaa)
The best thing is that it's
Happening to you and me

Always knew
I'd find someone
I never dreamt
It'd be like this
You've surpassed
All that I've hoped for (and ever wished)
And I'm tryin'
So hard
With all my heart and mind
To make your life
As good as you've made mine

This is the best thing (the best thing)
The best thing that could be happening (the best thing)
And I think you would agree (whooaaa)
The best thing is that it's happening to you and me

The best thing is that it's happening to you and me
The best thing is that it's happening to you and me

(The best thing) The best thing that could be happening
(The best thing) I think you would agree
The best thing is that it's happening to you and me

The song we danced to was by Frank Sinatra. I heart him mucho. Jace likes him as well. It was wonderful to just sway instead of really dancing...my feet were killing me by the time we got to the dancing portion of the evening. My shoes were TOTALLY worth it though. For reals.



"The Way you Look Tonight"

Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.

Yes you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.

With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.

Lovely ... Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it ?
'Cause I love you ... Just the way you look tonight.

Mm, Mm, Mm, Mm,
Just the way you look to-night.

My favorite part of the day was definitely our sealing. My mom and the other ladies helping me get ready were amazing. I wasnt nervous at all. My uncle Grant was the one to marry us. That was sooo special to me. There were many blessings and promises that were given. The best part was looking into Jace's eyes and knowing that we were going to be a team. A forever family.

I dont really have a least favorite part. There were things that went wrong of course, but i laughed it off. I loved everything about my wedding. My dress was great, the reception looked just like i pictured, and things went smoothly.

If i had to chose, i'm sad that i didnt get to have any of the really yummy veggies/fruit that we had.

I'm also really sad that our photographer didnt get any good pictures of us going through our going away line of sparklers. That bummed me out.
