The last 24 hours have been a whirlwind.
We have only got 3 weeks to the day until our wedding.
We have to move everything into our home.
And we lost a very important person in our lives last night.
Grandpa hermansen was one of the most amazing men I have every had the pleasure of meeting. Everyone that knew him loved him and respected him. He was an amazing businessman and absolutely loved what he did. He was Ryan's best friend, his idol, and the person he could talk to for hours and never get bored. (and if you know Ryan, he has got the shortest attention span known to man- I love you sweetheart (; ) I always will remember and love grandpa redge, from the first time I met him he reminded me so much of the grandpa I had lost earlier this year. He made me laugh, and he always made me feel welcome into his family. He was truly a man that is a shining example to us all, he loved what he did and was successful, he raised three amazing children with the amazingly strong and wonderful grandma karalyn, and has the strongest family I have met.
I am so blessed to call them my family and I wish I could just hug them all and take away the pain they are all struggling with. I am so grateful for my faith in times like these. I know that we will see him again, and I am so grateful that heavenly father gave us a plan for eternal salvation, so that we can be with our family again after our time in this life is over. I hope and pray for heavenly father to be with my family in this time of great pain, and I hope that they can find strength in each other. I am so grateful for temples and that we have the opportunity to be sealed to our loved ones for time and all eternity. I am grateful for missionaries, because without them I wouldn't have this huge part of my life that I rely on daily for strength and guidance. I hope that one day my parents and siblings will find what I have, and that they will be able to know this joy and peace that I am able to have with me in all times and in all places.
Ryan is at his bachelor party tonight, and I am so grateful for his friends, they are amazing men and we are so lucky to have them.
Well hopefully my next post is a little happier and a whole lot easier to write, I'm lucky my handy dandy iPad is semi water proof, because if not this thing would be dead by now.
Til next time....
