Soon-to-be...

 WOW! Time has flown by since I last posted. I am just 9 days away from my wedding and so much has happened since the last time I blogged. We had 4 showers...2 in February and 2 in March. Talk about a crazy couple of months! We have been so blessed by everyone's generosity in this season of our lives. Thank you to everyone who has graciously given to us!

We just came off spring break which we were able to get a lot of things finished up for the wedding. It still is surreal to me that this is about to happen. I have been looking back at old journal entries lately seeing just where God has brought me from. I have been praying for this man for so many years, wondering who it would be I would get to share my life with. Jordan has far exceeded every thought, prayer, every hope . I could not have imagine a man like him. He knows my heart and cares for me in a way that is so loving and tender. God knows I need this man for the rest of my life. He is a gift to me and I pray I will cherish him everyday.

We will head up to Cleburne next Wednesday and all the wedding events will begin Thursday with all of my bridal party arriving into town. I am SO excited to have these women surrounding me on one of the most sacred days. These women have supported, encouraged and walked right next to me for so many years.

I am praying for time to slow down for Jordan and I over the next 9 days, so that we can truly soak in every moment. Pray with us, that God would be magnified through our wedding ceremony and marriage to come!

Here are a few pictures over the past few weeks...
