Well, its May! I love May because it reminds me that summer is around the corner. Its been raining all week and I actually love it. I'm not really a fan of rain in cold weather....I'm not really a fan of cold weather at all, EXCEPT I love sweaters and the dark colors and the clothes. Anyway---warm weather rain is one of my favorite things. I love watching the lightening storms and listening to thunder with all the lights out at night...plus, I sleep like a rock when its raining. I love it!
The wedding is coming along beautifully! I've had a few stressful days where I didn't think somethings were going to work. However, I constantly had to remind myself...with the help of my parents, fiance and best friend reminding me....that God would work it out. I think my sister-in-law, Aimee, said it best...she said that God has already planned the day. He knows every detail about it, so there is nothing to worry about. The main and most important thing to keep in mind is that Ken and I will be married at the end of the day. YAY!!! :) We now have the church, the reception site, the caterer, the photographer, our pastor, singers, our attendants and my dress all worked out. Now I am starting to work on cakes, dj's, videographers, and decorations. I am looking forward to when Ken's mom can come to town and we can take her around and show her everything. Mostly, I do have to admit that its been really fun! My parents have been absolutely amazing! I seem to stress about money and not going over budget and my parents just tell me to enjoy it, have a good time and just create memories....I get to do this once! I am just completely humbled and blessed by them daily!
An update on my grandmother would be that things are just getting worse. There's really not a nicer way to say it. She is relying on her feeding tube all the time. She can take it out 6 hours a day. I believe hospice is moving in full-time this week. She just continues to get weak. She has her good days and gets out to get her hair done or goes riding when family comes to visit, but mostly she isn't feeling great.
I guess thats really all thats going on. I haven't updates my 2009 resolutions in awhile, but they are going pretty well. I am still working out and eating healthy. Of course, I would love to drop 10 lbs, but who wouldn't. We'll see if the wedding planning helps with that. I have to say I have a lot of nervous energy all day...just from being excited and planning. I am still working on ways to love my family. I do fail at times, but learning to just have grace and love them at all times.
This isn't a 2009 resolution, but I was planning on reading a lot this summer....and after we got engaged, I have been slacking off. My time seems to be taken by reading a book called "Bridal Bargains" (AMAZING if you know anyone getting married) and searching the internet for ideas and deals and vendors. Hopefully I will get some time once I feel like everything is booked.
Thats about all for now. Hope you enjoy my completely random Friday!
