100 Days to Wedding Day!!

Wow!!  100 days until our wedding day?!  I cannot believe that our big day is getting so close!!  I am so excited for it to get here but I also want time to slow down a little so we can enjoy this special time even longer :)  So much has been going on between planning the wedding & buying a house that I have been a terrible blogger.  Sleep consumes the little free time I have and my good intentions of posting an update go out the window!

In addition to trying to be a more regular blogger, I am going to be uploading a picture every day to my Instagram that chronicles these last 100 days to wedding day!  Use the Instagram link under my profile to follow along or search by @kelseyrmann.  


 Here's what has been going on in our life lately:

Celebrating this amazing guy getting off probation with the fire department :)  So proud of him!

Fire

Recently Danielle and I decided if we are going to be married to firefighters that it wouldn't be a bad idea to see what their job is like! Luckily the boys thought this was a great idea : )

During their volunteer training a few weeks ago they had the smoke trailer there. We got to put on all the equipment and go through the trailer. It was awesome!! The equipment was heavier than I expected but it was doable. The mask reminded me so much of a scuba breathing system. The hardest part of the whole thing was the darkness.  So much of your movement (crawling in a tight space) had to be done by communicating with the people in front of you and by feeling as you went along. It definitely gave me a greater appreciation for Jared's job and a better understanding of what he does. Although I would be lying if I didn't get a small amount of satisfaction from the fact that we did really well and didn't panic like they predicted : )
