Green Tea

I'm kind of in love with green tea. I've completely switched over from coffee. In fact, I've become kind of a green tea enthusiast, drinking 3-5 cups a day. I've been researching a lot of the health benefits of drinking green tea, and it's been pretty cool to learn about. For example, drinking 3-6 cups of green tea a day can lower your chances of cancer, Alzheimers, high cholesteral, tooth decay, and boost your metabolism as well. It's been a great way for me to wake up in the morning (green tea has about the same amount of caffeine as coffee,) to relax in the afternoon and evening, and to do something good for my health. My new years resolution was to drink more tea each day, and I'm really glad I've gotten into the habit of doing so. It's been a really nice addition in my daily diet, and I'd really encourage others to give it a try. In fact, try drinking 3 cups of green tea a day for a week or two and see what happens. You might become annoyingly obsessed with it (like me.) I like it best with lemon juice, but you can try adding sugar, honey, or just drinking it plain.
Seriously, give it a try. You may notice a really positive difference in the way you feel.

15 weeks to go

We can't believe how close we are to the big day. We have less than 15 weeks to go. We still have a few more things to get done before the wedding. We still need to get our wedding rings, marriage license (kind of important,) flower girl dresses, order the chairs/tables, address the invitations, finish a playlist of music for the reception, and a few other little things. For the most part, things are coming along nicely. We just can't wait for the day to finally come when we can be married. It's going to be so amazing to not have to say goodnight to each other anymore, and just be in one household.
It's pretty unbelievable to think about how in just 15 weeks our lives will be changed forever. 15 weeks and we'll be committed to each other forever. It's really amazing to think about it like that. I've had someone ask me before if the reality of it being so close has sunk in yet. It has, and it only makes me more excited for it to come. I'm definitely over the "dating thing," and I'm just ready to finally marry the love of my life.
