What a blessing!

Yesterday afternoon a lady that I work with gave Ethan and I a leather couch, love seat and chair! We are both so excited because we are working to save money and knew that buying something would put a big dent in our savings account. We are so thankful that the Lord provided for us! It is so neat to see how things fall into place!

Wedding plans are coming along great and I love putting all the details together. My family is in the middle of a move, so things are pretty crazy. It's so exciting to watch everything come together! We are counting down the days!

The Dress

Last Saturday I bought my wedding dress! I am totally in love with it! It is perfect and just what I wanted! We headed up to Jax for our appointment and they told me that the normal appointment time is about 1 1/2. I stayed 3 hours! I just couldn't make up my mind. The tie breaker was that I didn't want to take my dress off. I didn't feel that way about any other dress that I tried on! I just love it and I feel like such a bride in it!

I'm Proud To Be A Florida Gator!

Go Gators! Let me just tell you how proud I am to be a Gator! The Gators defiantly made us proud! Some of our friends invited Ethan and I over for dinner and to watch the game! It was a houseful and it was a blast! Here are a few photos from the night!

Kristin and her daughter Daisy May. Her husband Todd was focusing on the game! Kristin and Todd are so special to Ethan and I and we are so thankful for their friendship!

Ethan, Daisy and myself!

Sweet Daisy!

Nana and Papa

On December 27th my grandparents celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary! The following Saturday, January 3rd, we had a reception in their honor! My grandparents are absolutely amazing and their marriage such a godly example to all who are around them! I love them dearly and are so blessed to call them my grandparents!

Here I am eating :) I was getting in my last splurge before starting my diet!

Update

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year! Ethan and I had a great one! We both enjoyed being with each others family for the first time as a real family member. We spend Christmas Eve with Ethan's family and then the Saturday after Christmas Ethan came to my grandparents house. For New Years we watched the ball drop at my house and than yesterday we had the traditional New Years Day mean at Ethan's parents house! Tomorrow is my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary party so we will be spending the day preparing for that and enjoying the get together! Ethan and I had our 3 year anniversary on the 30th and we are so thankful that we have both our parents and grandparents who have such godly marriages to learn from. We could not as for a better support team. Ethan starts school on the 6th and I am currently working part time at a Pediatricians office. We are both seeking full time jobs and we know that the Lord will provide them!

We hope that everyone is doing well and that ya'll have a wonderful weekend!

PS. Wedding plans are coming along well. We have only done a few things because of the holidays but are ready to rock and roll with the rest of the plans! We booked our honeymoon today and look forward a vacation outside of Florida. I love wedding plans and am excited as more and more things come together!
