Monday.....already?

Ugh, mondays are definitley not my favorite. I really get un-motivated starting sunday night, because i know what the following day will consist of.....school. Although it only takes up a few hours of my day i do not anticipate it!

This weekend went really well. not much went on, which is a good thing most of the time! Sunday was fun. I taught the pre-k sunday school class. They miss behaved, but hey, what's new right? I really love those kids though:)

Church was different because Steve wasn't there. The youth pastor, Mike, who is also Andrew's Godfather did the sermon. He taught the lesson around Proverbs 17:6. it was about parenting, which was good for Andrew and I to hear for in the distant:) future, or however long God allows us without children!

The attendance was pretty low b/c most everyone went on vacation for spring break. But, it was still a great day:)

After church i came home and cleaned and did some hw, then andrew and i went and ate at Olive Garden...yum! Then we went over to my Muner's house (my greatgrandmother) for my cousin brent's birthday. He's 13.

Then, we went to Andrew's parents house to visit them b/c they had just gotten home after a week away.

I took some allergy meds and got tired so Andrew took me home and i went to bed.

My weekend was great:) Not too much activity, but some. Just the way i like it!

I'm glad monday is almost over. Once monday passes the week seems to fly by!

Date Night

My handsome, loving, wonderful.....and any other good quality you could think of, Fiance took me out to a movie tonight. We really don't go out too often because we both like relaxing on the couch together more than anything else, but it is nice to get out every once and a while. We watched the new Crank 2, which is more of Andrew's "kind of movie", but i did enjoy the first one so i decided it would be an okay choice! Plus it would make him happy (my favorite thing). The movie was okay, but the time out with him was fabulous!

Tomorrow i am going to help Andrew mow, and then we are going to go play golf! The weather is supposed to be amazing, so im sure it will be a great day for both things. I love spending time with Andrew! So, if that means playing golf (which i never have done) then it shall be! haha I could even suprise myself and be good, we will have to see!Andrew wants to go golfing on our honeymoon so i need all of the practice i can get!

I hope that everyone has had a lovely friday and wishing you a saturday full of laughs:)

So, to me this week is going by very slllloooowwwlllyyy. I keep thinking that each day is really the next. For instance, today i though it was friday. I wish:) I have had some fun things that have gone on in my week thus far:

1) i picked up my wedding dress.....it now fits perfectly

2) i got my new glasses

3) i only had one class yesterday and today

4) i moved a few nick-nacks into mine and Andrew's soon to be home

5) .......and I am look forward to going on a date tomorrow night with my wonderful Finace

It has been a pretty great week so far, but i'm sure the night out with Andrew will top everything, although getting my wedding dress was pretty exciting!

i am so ready for the temperature to get higher! bring on summer. It is supposed to be 70 or above saturday so i am going to try to talk Andrew into riding the motorcycle to the parkway (where we got engaged) and go on a picnic!

i hope everyone's week is going faster than my own! I think I am just rushing time, I'm so ready for August 2nd to come!

God is amazing

Yesterday Night we had a Maundy Thursday service at church. It was amazing, moving, motivating and heart warming. Throughout the service Steve (Andrew's dad) preached an awesome message about coming clean. Through this he told about the passover and how Jesus washed each of his disciples feet. Then he encouraged the congregation to wash anyones feet who had shown Christ to them some how. It was so awesome. You could just feel that God was in the room. I felt called to wash my soon to be mother-in-law and father-in- laws feet. I appreciate thei display of Christ so much, they are two of the most Christ driven people i have ever met. In turn, Desin Andrew's mother washed my feet. Although i did not feel worthy of this action, i realized that neither did Peter when Jesus asked to wash his feet. Desi explained to everyone that she was so happy that her prayer had been answered to find her son a Godly women. This meant so much to me becasue above anything Andrew and I want our marriage to be Christ centered. It was awesome to say the least. It was quite possibly one of the most moving services I have ever been to. Atthe end of the service Steve explained the pleasure in serving rather than to be served, just as Jesus did, and throughout the service serving those people who had been Christ like examples gave me no greater pleasure.

Wednesday

Today i had to get all of the try-out packets ready for the cheerleading tryouts at Tuscola. I put a lot of work into it so i hope that everyone appreciates the detailed information!

I have to go to the eye dr. at 1:30 today. Hopefully it will go well. My vision just seems to keep getting worse every time i go back.

I am so happy to be on Easter break from school. Some relaxation/rejuvination time was desperatley needed!

I have been going to the tanning bed to try and help my very very very plae skin not be so blinding! I really want to be tan for my wedding and bridal portraits. I am aware of the negative effects of tanning, but i still want that golden tan (even though i probably will not get it). Wow, what women go through.............haha

I hope that everyone has a wonderful Wednesday!

What?!

I cannot believe that it is snowing today in NC. On saturday it was 68 degrees, and today it is 31! I am very cold. Thus far i have already had almost 3 cups of coffee ( I am on my third now). It is so crazy that it is spring and the ground in covered in white powder. It is very beautiful, but right now i would rather be seeing sunny skies and blooming flowers! Oh well:) It is supposed to be 70 on thursady....what a bazaar weather pattern!

I am very excited for this evening to come because, both mine and andrew's parents are meeting with our wedding photographer. It should be fun.



I hope that everyone has a wonderful, God filled, Tuesday!

Update

So this weekend was fantastic. Andrew, myself, my mom and dad, and his parents all got to go to our wedding location, the Lake Lure Inn, for a taste testing! It was absolutley amazing. We tried the food we would be having both at the rehearsal dinner and at the reception. It was such a treat! I also went to Knoxville, Tennessee on staurday to go to my cousin Shannon's wedding. It was very nice. Although, i did get car sick:(. The gorge is not a very fun place to ride through! On sunday I got to teach the sunday school lesson at church. I help out with the pre-schoolers so they are a bit of a handful, but it turned out great. We made crowns and talked about how Jesus died for us. (I'm sure their favorite part was snack)

I had a ten page research paper due today in my North Carolina History class. Needless to say, it is such a relief to have it finished and turned in!

I am so happy that easter is in less than a week! I was listening to Christian music on my drive over to WCU today and it really moved me. I have made a promise to myself to devote my time ion the car to Jesus. No use of cell phones or 99.9 kiss country:) just Christian music. I think it is going to be such a blessing!

Hopefully everyone had a wonderful weekend, and is looking forward to another fabulous week of life:) God Bless!
