4 MONTHS!!!

Hi fellow bloggers!!! I haven't blogged for Ken and me in months. Today we have been married 4 whole months!!! I love married life, and Ken and I are getting to know each other better daily. We continue to have date nights on Mondays, so everyone knows not to call me then. We have done a lot including looking for a house, but we have decided to move into a larger apartment and save to build our own home in the near future.

Invitations

We got our invitations back on Friday. They look good, but there have been a few hiccups along the way. The printer forgot our inner envelopes and the tissue. For those of you who haven't gone through this invitations need to be packaged a certain way. I will stress too much about it unless our vendor is unable to get them to us by the end of the week. I have just 8 weeks left, so every moment counts. Every "i" has to be dotted and every "t" needs to be crossed.

To be honest with everyone I am becoming more nervous as time draws near, but I am certain that it is because there is sooooooo much to do with very little time to do everything in.

Please just continue to pray for us.

The Bridal Shower and More!!!

I must say that the past weekend has been phenomenal!!! I had my first bridal shower this weekend, and can I say that I have the best friends ever! You ladies are really a great group of people, and I could not be surrounded by a better group. It wasn't about the gifts, although, I must say they are nice. Ken and I will make great use of them, but it is more about the amount of love that was poured out in Wykeenia's family room. I am in awe. I am in awe of God; how He blesses me when I don't deserve it, and the wonderful group He has blessed me with. Ken and I really appreciate you all!!!

The best friends in the world!!! Love you ladies





My Cluster Girls- We are believing for 2010-2011

To top it off a really good friend came to see Ken and me from Little Rock, AR because he knew he would not be able to attend the wedding due to being out of the country.

Ken, Tujuana, and Sriram


So I will not keep jabbering, but I will add some pictures so you can see how much fun I had.

We are at 71 days and counting!!! Now we just gotta get all the little stuff. I'll be better about blogging.

FINALLY!!!

So, I have not blogged in a while. So much has happened so little time to blog about it. I'll feel everyone in on a few details. First, I wanted to let everyone know that our wedding is December 31, 2009. Most know that the date was changed to accommodate for a venue. We have FINALLY booked a venue. Everything will be held at Vestavia Country Club.

Having everything in one venue makes life easy. We are able to make sure everyone is in a safe location, and no one has to try to find a second location. Vestavia Country Club is beautiful, and I can't wait. We are 89 days away!!!

I FOUND MY DRESS!!!

Hi Journey followers!!! I haven't blogged since the death of Michael, but I am back with great news. I found my dress, and at a great price too!!! I couldn't believe it. I have heard people say that when you put it on, you will know! That phrase could not be more true. While I would love to let the world see, I have to have some restraint because Ken doesn't know the final dress choice. I will let you know as well that I am sooooooooo happy that shopping for a dress is over!!! I think it is the worst/best experience that one could have. I think after purchasing the dress; it really hit me, I am getting married. I bought a dress I have a ring and there is no turning back. While choosing to marry Ken is one of the best decisions I could ever make, I will never ever ever have another wedding. The stress of planning our nuptials has been anything but easy. I will say that God has been so gracious to us in all things. So I am excited again- YAY!!! No worries, the pic to the right is not my real dress:)!

I love you guys, and thanks for following Our Journey!!!

NOT Michael!!!!

Okay, I know this has nothing to do with Ken and me personally, but we are both just crushed about the death of Michael Jackson. I grew up listening to all the Michael Jackson songs even though I really couldn't listen to secular music. I love the Michael Jackson videos, the songs. The last two days I have been reliving my band days with friends from high school. Okay, I will keep it brief because I know most of you think I have gone crazy, but I have not. I just hope that he accepted Christ somewhere along his journey. Although his end has come, his legacy will live on in the countless millions who loved his music and the artists he inspired.

Courtesy Update

Hi everyone!!!

This post will not be very long at all. I wanted to update everyone on our search for a church. We still have not gotten a yes, but all things in due time. I am surprisingly not stressing about it ( I know that many of you can't believe it).

Sunday night, we had an engagement dinner with Ken's family. It was really nice. I will be marrying into a wonderful family, so hopefully all my family and friends can rest easy when I am fully entrusted into Ken's care. I'll add pics from Sunday night later.

Thanks for taking the time to read, and please keep us in your prayers.
