About the Bloom Bride.

Well, I am marrying Mr. Bloom.  (What a name right!?) It will definitely be better that the long hispanic name I have trailing on me now... Not that I dislike it or anything, but spanish speakers get upset with me when i pronounce it "wrong". haha. So, I am welcoming Bloom with open arms! We met when we were sixteen...yes. high school sweethearts... Our 7 year anniversary is on 10.10.10. And to answer the most common question I get.. Yes, we stayed together the whole 7 years! No break ups! I don't really like telling people that we are high school sweet hearts because of the stigma that comes along with that. I am not marrying him  because I am scared I can't find anyone else or because I'm just settling for what I am familiar with.  I am marrying him because I am beyond in love with him. After almost 7 years of togetherness, not a day goes by where I am bored with our relationship.  We have not fallen into some boring pattern, we are still learning and evolving into the best couple we can be... We got engaged on our 6 year anniversary.  Even though I had always dreamed of getting married on 10.10.10, that just wasn't in the cards for us.  We wanted to be done with college before we took the major leap into Life! So, we decided on the next best thing 09.10.11. I joked around with the date once, on a separate occasion my FMIL (without knowing I joked about it) mentioned the date, and finally my father (also on a separate occasion) mentioned it would be funny.  There you had it! It was meant to be! We had finally set a date!
