Well, the wedding is only 18 days away… I can hardly believe that it’s true! I also can hardly believe I will be married soon! It seemed like forever and now it is a little less than 3 weeks away. I am ready to begin my new life with my soon to be husband! The long distance stuff was good for us, but I am ready for it to be over. God taught me alot and I know that I never want to be apart from him again!
- I miss him more every single day… it’s getting ridiculous lol. Saturday my wonderful, awesome, great, adorable fiance is coming to see me!!!! Then, he will not leave me anymore! Always together!! It is totally lonely being without him. I love the time with my family, don’t get me wrong, it is incredibly awesome to have this time!!!!!!!!!!!! BUT nobody else is my Andy - and my Andy is my other half. So I need my other half to be whole! - Well, now that I got all that out!
Wedding plans are going well!!! Praise the Lord everything is falling into place, infact other than calls I do not have to do any other wedding plans until after Andy arrives………… Praise the Lord! It was fun planning the wedding, but it can become stressful too!
What I have left to do is to print the programs, get our marriage license, go to premarital counseling, meet with the baker, meet with the florist (my aunt), meet with the emcee, talk with the pianist, double up on some reception things, and settle an exact time with the hair dresser. So, basically it’s alot of communication - ALOT OF TALKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think I will just give a HUGE sigh of relief once all of the planning is finished!! (Just in time to enjoy the BIG day right??) I hope so! I plan to enjoy my 13 days with my Fiance once he gets here! I accomplished all of my goals I planned to complete before he got here - So that’s GOOD!! I want a stress-free, enjoyable time with the man I will soon marry!

I also realize it has been MONTHS since I last posted - and I know that it will probably not be until the next month after our wedding when I post again - BUT when I do post again I am sure my wonderful new husband will help me put PiCtUrEs up!!!!!!!!! The REAL fun part of bloggin!!! It’ll be great!!
So catch me in August!!! ![]()

Andrea,
We are so excited for you and look forward to being able to spend time with you and Andy over July 4. As the big day approaches, I know how frantic everything becomes as all the details begin to fall into place. I would like to leave you with a passage that has encouraged me during the busyness of life:
“The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. Come behold the works of the Lord, what desolations he hath made in the earth. He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire. Be still and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in teh earth. The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.”
Psalm 46:7-11
Although the passage really speaks regarding war and fighting, I think that if a person can be still or calm in the midst of a battle (also refer to Psalm 23 when the Lord prepares a table before us in the presence of our enemies [or as the battle is set in array]), then I think we can be still in the face of whatever lies before us (whether exciting or daunting).
We love you and look forward to adding Andy to our family. Enjoy these last couple of weeks.
