Back to Reality
Back to reality.. Yes its now time to get back to reality.
I havent had a chance to blogg this past week... I have been busy 24/7
Where have I been you might wonder? Well no where inparticular... At home.. Getting Married :p
The 18/7 was a perfect day - great weather, perfect company, and SO much fun!
The day started with Johanna and I getting our hair done at 9am, then back home to eat and for Emma to fix our make-up, then 14.00 time for Lissie, Johanna Nykvist, Anna Lundborg, Emma Å, Johanna M and I to go out to the church: in a stretch Limo ofcourse! We drove around town for an hour first and then out to Husby-Rekarne Kyrkan ( this was when I started to feel extremely nerveous!) .. Everything went perfectly, the ceremony wasn't too long and then after we could toast and mingle in the garden at the församlingshemmet :)
Things wouldnt have run so smoothly and perfectly if it wasnt for everyone that helped and made our day possible.. and for all the the guests that could come and join us :) THANK - YOU all so much.. it meant alot to us for you to be there!
My only family that could be here was one of my younger brothers Gordon ( who left Sweden on Tuesday :( ..) So Eric and I haven't really had time to fully 'enjoy' our married life yet.. but im not complaining, its not so often i see my family anyway!
Monday we went to Gröna Lund for the day which was heaps of fun - I dont think i've ever seen Gordon or Eric so scared before haha! and Tuesday I started back at work! yay...
We are planning our honeymoon tho, which will be sometime in September :) Rome for a week! Romantic, Cosy, and just Eric and I.. what else could i ask for?
I dont have all the pics from the wedding yet (so if you have any please send them to us ASAP!!) but here is one of 'the wedding party' ; The Best Man, The Bridesmaid, The Bride and Groom, and The Ring Barer and Flower Girl
Until next time ...Mwha

Exciting or Stressfull?
They say that the week before your wedding is meant to be one of the happiest times of your life.. Waiting for the excitment and celebrations to come.. In my opinion it is the complete opposite - stress, stress and more stress! Which explains why I haven't been blogging so much! (Sorry readers :p)
There is so much to do and so many people to please that you kind of lose track of enjoying it and embrasing your last week as a 'single'. Having my family so far away hasn't been helping :( Are they dissapointed in me, are they truly happy for me (even though im in Sweden and they're all the way in Australia)?? Sometimes it seems hard to tell.... I think this week is the most i've ever missed them..... Oh well, I will just have to wait until next year!
One of my brothers - Gordon, came on Sunday evening to spend the next two weeks with Eric and I. Its so much fun having him here and hanging out with him like we used to.. Not sure how Saturday will go for him (everything's in swedish)..
Yesterday Johanna and I got our 'make-up trial done by Emma, we're going to look gorgeous haha... she did a great job! I was trying to imagine myself in my dress, with my hair done up too... Mixed emotions there, but i cant wait for saturday; will be interestingn to see how eric reacts when i walk in the church!
Today i was in Västerås and got my Perminant Residence Visa - no more worrying if i will be able to stay in Sweden or not.. I can now be here as long as i like :)
Tommorrow will be another busy busy day, first I have to work till 13.00, then Straight out to the church and meet with the priest and practise everything for saturday!! Then maybe afterwork if anyones interested???
Thats all for now, im exhausted and hungry - time for dinner! Caio

Just my luck .....
Suck... 10 days to go and i am SICK :(
Sore throat, fever and headaches!
Just my luck that this would happen - lets hope that it passes quickly.. Feels like i would rather postpone getting married than to be this sick on my wedding day! (Not that thats possible now though)
Might have to take the rest of the week off work to get better :p
Fingers crossed ...

Surprise!
Yes this weekend has been full of surprises! What I thought i had planned and what actually happened were two totally different things!
I had planned to hang out with my friend Kat for the day - not doing anything special, just being with her.. So we started at my place having fika, then at around 11ish in the morning, the door bell rang. And what do I find when open the door? 13 girls dressed in Pink! 13 girls eager to throw me a bachellorette party!! I can safely say that I had NO IDEA what so ever that they were going to show up like they did and wisp me away with them..
Firstly i was given a pink t-shirt saying 'The Future Mrs. Besterman' that i wore all day, and a pink tiarra and a list of all the items i would need for the day :
I had no idea what to think when i saw all those items, or my only thought was, what could i possibly need a cucumber for! haha.... Once my bag was packed we were then off - to Johanna's place for lunch and activities.. one of which included me finger painting a picture of Eric - haha!
Then we were off to a 'secret' location, which turned out to be Spakällan! so we had a a bubble pool and sauna all to ourselves there with champagne and snacks! Very relaxing :)
After we had finished there we were back at Johannas to get ready for the rest of the evening! PARTY!
Dinner at Åbryggan and VIP lounges at Harry's - with Champagne, fruit, strawberrys and cream and then Bicardi drinks for everyone!
This was one of the best surprises i have ever gotten... I couldnt have asked for anything more- hanging out and partying with my girlfriends all day long :)
I havent got any pictures to put up yet: soon hopefully!
So thank-you all so much for a super fun day and for sharing it with me :)

After Work
I have no finished my gruiling 8 days in a row of work! Have been free yesterday and shall work today and tomorrow - then im free all weekend :) yay! Now its only 10 days till my brother Gordon comes to sweden.. am super excited, just hope that the weather stays nice ( and it better be perfect weather on the 18th!)
Lately our apartment has felt like a sauna because its so hot out! and we cant have the windows oppen otherwise the cats will jump out...What to do what to do....I wont complain about the weather though (unlike every other swede it feels lie) I am loving the hot 25+degree sunniness - its Lovely :)
Yesterday Eric and I went to after work with Anna and Christopher at Årbryggan and then to Nybron. Was lots of fun and quite easy to get a little drunk since the after work drink prices are so cheap :p Later Anna, I and Emma went out to Harry's and drank some more :p There wasn't so many ppl out there, but i wont complain, i still had lots of fun :) Luckily i don't start working till 15:00 today!!
Thats all the gossip from me, Nothing else exciting to tell today.. ByeBye
If only I were a cat.. i could lay around wherever i felt like it - like Elvis and Ebba!
