I’m starting to sound like a broken record, but I can’t believe how fast our engagement is going by!  We knew once we crossed over from September to October that we’d be on turbo boost, but this is incredible.  We’ve gone from stressing over the big stuff, to checking off to the never-ending list of minute details.  We spend a lot of time pouring over our collective calendars trying to figure out how to get it all done.  The bigger challenge for me is trying to keep it all in perspective.  I know that the “problems” that I’m faced with today are problems that I’ve been praying for since I was a little girl.  It’s easy to lose sight of the end goal when you’re wrapped up in earth-shattering decisions such as ”What color should we frost the cupcakes?” and “How exactly are we getting from the church to the reception?”, etc. etc.   None of those things really matter when you get down to it.  What matters is that God has given me the love of my life, and on December 31 I will walk down that aisle and he and I will become husband and wife. I can’t wait!

It’s always nice to know there are alternatives.
