Tissues... Lots of Tissues

So... writing vows.  What a punch in the feels.  Serious drop kick to the heart.  We wrote our vows the other day.  I bawled my eyes out typing them up to send to Crystal.  TYPING THEM.

Can you imagine what is going to happen on our wedding day when we actually say them?  Maybe we should decorate the aisle with those square tissue boxes.  I really hope the makeup ladies have some sort of poly coat they can put on my face.

No joke, I am a mess already.  When we were proofreading the vows, I was trying not to ugly cry.  I know you're probably laughing at this description, but seriously... what am I going to do?

So, even though my dad's been deceased for almost five years, the fact that he won't be there is killing me.  That is part of it.  Even though I'm so excited and happy to be marrying such an amazing man and becoming step-mom to a wonderful munchkin, there is a part of me that is extremely disappointed that neither of them will get to meet him.

I know he would have loved hearing Marine stories from Hubs and seeing all his memorabilia.  Plus anyone who knew my dad, knew how he felt about grandkids... sooo... yeah, that is where my head is at.

These aren't generic, the officiant says "do you blah blah" vows where the couple only has to hold hands and say "I do."  These are straight from the heart, personal to us, vows and lord knows I probably won't be able to get a sentence out without crying.

Everyone bring tissues.  I'm going to need them and if you're like me... so are you.
