Well hello there...WEDDING!
Time is flying by, and my stress level is quickly rising! I wasn't stressed until it was suddenly 2012 and it was less than 5 months until the big day!
There is so much that we've got to get done, or as Adam likes to put it, "there is so much that you've got to get done!" Thanks, fiance. I guess he is right though, his main job right now is finishing up school and finding that perfect job to support his soon-to-be wifey so she never has to work again. Wait, what?
A lot of you have asked us multiple times where we're going to live.
Nashville, Dallas, Colorado, Timbuktoo?
TBA.
Stay tuned, because we're not quite sure yet either! I know God will work everything out, and we're so excited to see what sort of adventure He has in mind for us.
Now to recap what we've been up to over the past month or so! Well, we've been traveling a lot! The week leading up to Christmas, I flew to Colorado to shoot my friend Natalie's wedding/bridals/engagement photos. I was beyond ecstatic to visit Colorado and see what all the mountain hype was about, and didn't really think I'd get to see the mountains. I was wrong. Oh. My. Word! I'm in love. The mountains are calling my name!
Oh, and then it snowed..a foot. A foot of SNOW! I just could not contain my excitement. Poor Adam, I'm sure he was just dying every time I called to tell him about the snow!
After I got home, Adam came to Franklin to spend Christmas eve and day with my family, something we've never been able to do before. It was a special one. Later that week, I went to Searcy for his family's Christmas, as well as the arrival of our new niece, Maggie Lynn. She is adorable, and all are doing well! I'd say we had a blast loving on all 4 of the babies and spending time with the Ingle side. I truly am marrying into a wonderful family.
After two crazy weeks, I think the traveling has slowed down for a little bit. We recently mourned the loss of my grandmother, but celebrated her going to a much more joyous place and were able to spend time with family we don't see very often. One of her favorite songs was, 'How Great Thou Art', and oh how it is true. When going through a few of her old things, I found a beautiful broach to clip on my bouquet as 'something borrowed.' She would have loved that.
Now for the wedding updates! Adam's wedding band has been purchased! Exciting, eh? My band is also already secured, as my thoughtful fiance purchased it when he purchased my engagement ring. We went to try it on when I was in Searcy, but I swore I would keep my eyes closed so it would be a surprise on our wedding day! It was tough not to look, but I hear it looked mighty pretty so I'll have to take his word for it :-)
We've thought about our music more, which of course will be a surprise until rehearsal I suppose, and sometime in the next week or two mom and I will start picking out flowers, or at least getting some ideas in place. Also on our need-to-do-very-soon list is pick out a cake vendor, and start that process. Cake-tasting should be fun, right?!
I think that's about it for now! This month is already flying by, which means before we know it it will be down to 4 months left! Where did 13 go?? People aren't lying when they say it will go by fast.
