I got home from the hospital, and the last few weeks i've been busying myself with wedding plans. I've taken the time to grieve the loss of my baby, and although i'm not over it, nor do i think i ever will be, i can at least function without wanting to curl up in bed and not move and just bawl my eyes out. I'm coping, and planning the wedding has been helping a lot to get my mind off of it.


I've gotten the venue for both the wedding and reception booked, the invitations picked out and sent out, the colors picked, flowers and decorations sorted, the bridesmaids and groomsmen tuxes and dresses picked out and fitted. We're ready to go for this wedding! I didn't want to wait any longer to marry Tadley, so our wedding is set for this Friday. Plenty of time for family and friends to fly out and be there. Everything is looking perfect!


Tadley and Reese have surprisingly gotten closer over this whole ordeal, and Tadley even asked him to be one of his groomsmen. My maid of honor is Lacey, and my bridesmaids are Ava and Ashley. Tadley's best man is of course Kyle, and his groomsmen are JJ, and Reese.


We're having a joined bachelorette and bachelor party tonight, and i'm kind of excited. I'm currently in Tadley and my room getting ready with the girls, and Tad and the guys are in one of the guest rooms getting ready.


"You have to wear white tonight, because you're the bride!" Ashley insisted.


"Yes, ma'am!" I said saluting her and rolling my eyes playfully. I dug around in the closet until i found the perfect dress to wear and slipped into it along with some wedges. The dress was completely white, the top half was lace with a cut out in the back and a plunging neckline. The skirt was flowy and reached the top of my thighs. Once i was ready i walked out of the closet and the girls started squealing in excitement as i walked out of the closet. They had already curled my hair and did my makeup to perfection so i was ready to go.


"You look gorgeous!" Lacey squealed.


"You're seriously going to be the most beautiful bride i've ever seen!" Ava exclaimed in awe.


"My brother is one lucky son of a bitch!" Ashley grinned.


"Ummm, hon... You do realize you have the same mom so you just called your mother a bitch right?" I asked raising my eyebrow.


"Oops.... sorry mom!" She said with a shrug. I laughed at her and we walked down the stairs to meet the guys in the living room. Tad looked amazing in a light gray suit. All eyes turned to us as we walked into the room.


"You look gorgeous!" Tad said with a wide smile.


"I could say the same about you, soon to be husband!" I said with a smile of my own. He grinned at me and held out his arm for me to take, i took it and he lead me out to the party bus and helped me up the steps. As soon as i entered i looked around at the purple lights, stripper poles, and screens on each wall.


There was a bar set up in the corner and i immediately went and sat down on the comfy leather seat. The rest of the group walked on and started whooping and hollering and started blaring music. Tadley went to the bar and made drinks and brought me one over. We did a bunch of shots, and danced around with the music. I laughed as the girls took turns dancing on the pole and started cheering them on. After everything that's happened i definitely needed this.


The bus stopped and the driver announced we were at the first club and we all filed out. I was walking hand in hand with Tadley and the girls were bossing the people outside of the club around.


"Step aside! The motherfucking bride to be is coming through!" Lacey hollered.


"EVERYBODY OUT OF THE WAY!" Ava screamed out.
