I just bought Jeremy's wedding band. So excited! Can't wait to be married to him. I don't think I have ever been so emotional in my entire life as I have been this past month. The realization of me getting married gets more and more bittersweet with each day. I get the marry such an encouraging man of the Lord, but I also have to leave my amazing family. I'm so ready. It just gets to me sometimes on top of the stress from planning the wedding. I have such little time to plan, and anytime I do have that's free, I definitely do not want to spend it doing writing down addresses and stressing over what cake to order. It was fun at first, but now I am just so ready for everything to be all planned and ready. Simple little decisions, like how to wear my hair, how to get my nails done, how tan I should be, ALL make me freak out on a huge scale. So needless to say, trying to decide on a place for us to live is not being handled well by me at all. I am way too indecisive for my own good. This probably needs to change...Random thoughts in my head.

We will keep our eyes on You.
Minds been trying to wrap my head around lots of things these past few days.
Getting married in 47 days.
Chatting with some middle school girls about relationships, and wishing they had a glimpse of the goodness that God will allow them to be a part of in the coming years.
Encouraged by a boy that above all else, loves Jesus.
Desiring to be different, and live for Him in relationships, life, and love.
Lord, help me these upcoming weeks. Give me strength and endurance. So blessed by Your glorious love.
God said, “My presence will go with you. I’ll see the journey to the end. Moses said, “If Your presence doesn't lead me here, call this trip off right now. How else will it be known that Your with me in this, with me and Your people? Are You traveling with us? God said to Moses, “All right. just as you say, this also I will do, for I know you and you are special to me. I know you by name. Exodus 33:14-17

58 Days!!!
Jeremy and I will be married in 58 days. So crazy to think about that! So much has happened since the last post. We found an apartment. It's called Stanton Place, it's about 5 minutes from downtown Acworth. It's a super nice area and seems to be very safe which is always good! Jeremy will probably be moving in sometime in May. I also started working my pharmacy job 4 nights a week. It gets incredibly tiring after a full week of work, but it will be completely worth it by the pay date. ;) Jeremy has been busy with school and work, and I have been busy with my work; consequently, we rarely get to see each other apart from weekends and on Wednesday nights for Revolution. I would LOVE to see him much, much, much more...but we are both so busy. Can't wait til we get to see each other every single day.
We both went on a mission trip this last week to Charleston, SC with the middle school ministry. It was awesome to see all those middle schoolers work their beautiful hearts out all for God's glory. I had a group of amazing, crazy 6th graders - love each and every one of them. They made me laugh more than I ever have, haha. Jeremy had his usual small group of 8th grade guys, all so great. I think we learned just as much on this trip as the middle schoolers. My girls taught me so much about love this week, they are all so willing to give up their spring breaks to serve others...others that they have never even met. We all worked at a school, Orange Grove Elementary, and spread 75 tons of mulch, and huge amounts of pine straw and wood chips. We went door-to-door to hand out flyers for River Church's (a church that Westridge helped start a year ago) Easter service. It was such a great experience, and such a great way to get to know the group on an entirely different and deeper level.
I have my first wedding shower this weekend on the 17th, AKA my 20th BIRTHDAYYYY! Ahh, I'm beyond excited. Double special day. Denisa, Jeremy's mom, and all his aunts are throwing me a shower. It's going to be awesome. I'm too old...or will be in 3 days. I can't believe that I will be 20. No longer a teenager...so weird!
Anyways, my thoughts and life.
