Well the day finally came but went to quickly. It was such a fun time, and the wedding was beautiful better than I could have ever imagined. We were surrounded with our friends and family and had a blast!! St. Lucia wasn't too bad either! Chris and I left last monday and came home at midnight on Saturday! Pics to come but not tonight I am way too tired.

5......
Well this week is going to be absolutely CRAZY!! We have something going on everyday and it just feels like it is flying by. I started my second semester today and am in between classes right now! I am glad to be back at school especially since it means I am getting married this weekend!
I had a blast at my bachelorette party this weekend! IT was really sad though, the night before my sister was throwing up and got really sick. The day of she had to go to the ER clinic and get an IV. She is the best sister ever because she still stuck it out and stayed until after the lingerie shower. I felt so bad for her and am so glad she is feeling better. She is probably the greatest sister ever. All the girls and I went to Logans after the shower and were the only ones in the place dancing haha! It was fun and I am so glad I got to see everyone!!
Love everyone lots!!!!

Last night Chris and I met up with Leigh-Anne and Kevin for a while which was so much fun! They just got engaged about a month ago and we are so happy for them! I am loving getting to hang out with them when we can! Today after work I am meeting up with Katie for lunch and a much needed catch up time! I love how the Lord places just the right people in my life at just the perfect time! He is so great!
Nicole and Savannah come tomorrow!!!!!! I am so excited! We are going to have a blast here the next week! Can't wait! Ok well I am off to continue working!!
Have a terrific day!!!

The Countdown continues
Well .. 10 more days. Oh my gosh that just sounds so crazy. But yes in ten days I am going to be a married women! So all of my posts until then are going to sounds the same :)! Lets see what is new with the wedding stuff. I am about 60% moved into Chris and I's house in Carrollton. I can't decide when I should move all of my stuff in cause then I would be living out of a suitcase until we get married which doesn't really sound like to much fun. I can't wait to finally live there! I go over about everyday to let the dog out while Chris is at work so it is making me really anxious to just be able to live there!
On that note though, I will be very sad to move out of my parents house. I am probably a little more attached to my family then the average person, ok who am I kidding probably more attached than the most persons haha but I love them alot and have been pretty emotional this last week about moving. It's just that I do have that family who can talk about everything, who loves one another unconditionally, who are all best friends, and who talk about God openly! I have such an awesome family! I'm so glad that they love Chris like he is one of us and that he loves them as well! Yea for family!
Ok well my bachelorette party is on Saturday! I can't wait! I just am excited to hang out with my friends all at the same time! I feel like it has been FOREVER since i got to have a girls night with everyone there! AND BONUS my sister and Savannah Grace are coming in town on Friday and staying until the wedding which means I get a whole week of having my sister and my sweet niece here with me!
Well I hope everyone is having a great day! Hopefully I will be back soon to update!

Lead Me To The Cross
Savior I come
Quiet my soul remember
Redemptions hill
Where Your blood was spilled
For my ransom
Everything I once held dear
I count it all as lost
Lead me to the cross
Where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees
Lord I lay me down
Rid me of myself
I belong to You
Lead me, lead me to the cross
I have been so sad lately. I have something in my life right now that I wish with all my heart I could change, but the only way I could even remotely make it better would look something like compromising my stance in the Lord. I am who I am, I am a daughter of God, I love Him and I want to live my life to honor Him. I know that I am not a perfect person and i know I make a lot of mistakes but I know i have a perfect forgiveness and example in Christ. My heart breaks to think that on this earth that is not good enough. Christ is not good enough. We, and when i say we I mean us in the Christian community, judge people based on labels and colors and nationality. If I don't carry the right "name" or look the right way or practice my faith the right way than I am undoubtedly going to be "unworthy" to someone. I am a follower of Christ, why is that not ok? Shouldn't the ultimate judgement be His? I know he lived a perfect life, died for my sins, and rose from the grave. That is the gospel, I trust Him with my life and that is ALL His gift of salvation requires. There is no fine print. I wish I could let things roll off and I am normally ok with that but when my faith comes into question or how and where I choose to worship my Lord, it is very personal to me. Maybe I am learning a lesson with this situation, but at the end of the day when its all said and done, I have a savior who will lift that burden from my shoulders and give me rest. Praise God for that.
Sorry if I am sounding down in this post when I should be jumping for joy!!!! I am getting married in 2 1/2 WEEKS!!!! Oh my gosh I am so fired up. I can't wait to marry Chris! He is so wonderful and I am so lucky. I can't believe how fast time has flied. Sometimes I still can't believe I'm engaged and now I am going to be married! WOOHOO!! He is going to be such an amazing husband! YEA! Ok well Hope all is well with everyone!!!!
