Married life

Fred and I are finally married and are getting ready to move in our new house! We are loving being married even though we are still in Mama and Daddy's house. I think we will definitely feel like we are more married and on our own when we have to start paying bills and fixing supper by ourselves. WE are exicted to be getting into our house soon.
Everything went great at the wedding! I have the best family and friends and I am very lucky to have had so much help with the wedding. Everything was just absolutely beautiful. My aunt's are so talented and they did such a great job with all the decorations and food(Well I guess it was good...I didn't get any of it:))! My cake was defintely one of my favorite things! It was exactly what I wanted!! I had such a great time all day with my family and friends. Fred and I were talking about how much fun it is to have your two families come together for a weekend and meet each other. I will post pictures soon!
Thanks to everyone who helped out with the wedding and made it so special! Love ya'll!

Bachelorette Party and Bridesmaids Luncheon

Saturday was such a fun day. First, I had my bridesmaids luncheon in Maysville. Then, I went to ATL with all my lovely girls for my bachelorette party. We had so much fun at both. Lunch was great and it was fun to get to talk and spend time with all the people I love most! When I got to Buckhead for my Bachelorette Party Kayla, April, Deanna, and Megan had already decorated the room in all Bachelorette stuff! I absolutely loved it...everything was so cute. We played a few games and got ready then went out to dinner in downtown Buckhead. They had me all kinds of fun stuff to wear....I wore a crown that said Bride To Be, a vail, a sash that said Bachelorette and I had a Boa but Megan was in charge of it so I let here wear it!!:) After dinner we went to midtown and went to a place called Opera. We had such an amazing time at Opera, we danced til we just absolutely could not dance anymore!!! I mean literally we decided it was time to go when all of us were like moving in slow motion on the dance floor. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that has made my wedding so special! I am so blessed to have such great friends and family!! I love all of you!!

9 MORE DAYS!!!

I am getting so darn excited! We have 9 more days until our big wedding day and I just can't wait. We have been engaged for almost two years, like one year and 9 months to be exact, so we have been waiting that long to be married and now it is here. Fred and I have just been so blessed with meeting each other. I just feel like the good Lord knew that we were perfect together. We have so much fun together and he is my best friend. I am just so lucky to have found a great guy like Fred! We have everything together and ready to go. I am taking the programs to get printed today. Fred and I still haven't heard back from the house people which is very very frustrating but we are just going to be patient because we are getting a really great deal on a pretty nice house in a great neighborhood. So what more could you ask for?? The only problem is that we are going to have to come home from our honeymoon and live with my mama and daddy which isn't the most ideal situation but we will survive!:) I am just so ready to get into our house and paint everything the way I want it and put all of our stuff in and start using it and feel like a real married couple! HAHA!! Just keep us in your prayers during the next week, especially Fred because he is really nervous about the wedding day!:) I am just excited! Hope everyone is great! I LOVE YA'LL!

Sorry so long!

Things have been busy and absolutely crazy! I have had something every weekend but it has been fun! I am just really exhausted!:) I am doing a long term sub position right now so I am busy busy busy during the week and on the weekend. We only have 23 more days and I am so super excited! I talked to the realtor today and she said that the offer is in the final stage (whatever that means) so we should be hearing in the next couple of days about the house. We are probably going to have to just live with mama and daddy for a little while until we can close on the house. I think that Kim said it would probably take about 30 days to close. So maybe it will all be ready when we get back....WHO KNOWS??? I got so tickled the other day when I was doing the program because at the bottom it said Our new address and I just put GOD ONLY KNOWS!!!!:) But that is the truth God is in control! Thanks for all your prayers and support! Things are going pretty good!! Love all of you!!

PICTURES FROM OUR SHOWERS!!

Showers, Showers, Showers...so much fun!!

I am sorry it has been so long since I have written a post but I have just been super busy with student teaching coming to an end and everything. Fred and I had two showers two weekends ago. On Saturday, March 21, we had a "Honey-Do" Shower and Fred got lots of things to help out around the house like tools and stuff. We really got tickled because Fred was opening half the things and didn't know what they were and he was having to tell his mom so that she could write it down. It was so funny, I'm like Fred those are pliers!!:) Needless to say if Fred uses the tools then hopefully there is some sort of manual that comes with them. On Sunday, March 22 I had a bridal shower at Kelly Lacey's house in Commerce. It was a really nice shower and I got lots of great things. Mrs. Kelly's house is just absolutely beautiful and they had everything set up so pretty. The gifts were unwrapped so the guests just brought in the gifts and set them on the table and then I would walk around and look at them and have Kayla to write everything down. I really liked that better because everyone wasn't just sitting around staring at you:) We got to socialize a lot which I love of course!

Things are really going well we are just getting down to the wire. We only have 2 more months!! That is just so crazy but exciting! We have found a house that we love and we are making an offer on it as soon as the man that owns the house gets back from his honeymoon. I just pray that all of this works out. Now I just need a J-O-B!!! HOpe everyone is doing great! LOVE YOU ALL!!

Kitchen Shower

Fred and I had a kitchen shower in Hartwell on February 21st. It was so much fun and we got lots of great things to put in our "make believe" kitchen. If we only had a real kitchen we would be good to go!!:) We will some day...let's just pray it is before we get married!! But we really had a great time and the hostesses really did a great job with the food and decorations. THANK YOU TO ALL OF THE WONDERFUL HOSTESSES! I'm posting some pictures of the shower and I got to looking at them and Fred and I did not pose for one picture together and it was our first shower together. We have really got to do better next time! (We actually took one picture but we are sitting on the couch..no a very posed picture). I hope everyone is doing great! Sorry it has been so long since I posted last, I am just super busy with school and wedding stuff. THREE MORE MONTHS!!!!:) I love all of you!!
