Five Months to Go!
Yesterday was the five month mark countdown to the wedding! There's so much going on... so much to do! And it's still really fun! Today, I bought a cake topper! We also have our flower girl basket and other fun stuff.
I've also started to pack up some of my stuff for my move. There's so much to do, there's just no sense in waiting! I like being prepared. I was a Girl Scout, you know.
Also, something exciting... Robin and I bought a lawn Gnome! His name is Norville. Norville the Gnome. He's terribly cute. And Robin is terribly sweet for letting me buy it for our yard!
So, the invitations went out... I have reports of them having been received. Let the fun continue!

Calm in the Midst of the Storm
Again... I am slacking in my blogging duties. I can't help it! I'm preparing for a lot of stuff, people! And yet I'm still holding it together.
I have to say I'm clinging to God through all of this for all I'm worth, and it's the best I've ever felt about anything. He has given me more that I could have ever hoped for all at once. A wonderful husband-to-be, a fantastic family who loves me, and supportive friends who care about me.
God is also giving me more peace and calm than I could have ever hoped for to do what I have to do this summer. Plan a wedding, staff two festivals, administrate one festival, find a new job, plan a move, see 'Great Big Sea' in concert, and maybe fit a few leisure weekend trips in there, and also travel to North Carolina a couple of times to futher plan our future. And yet, I really do feel unusually peaceful about everything. I hope I can come back to this entry in a few months and see that I still feel the same way.
I'm trusting God more than ever to see me through this. I don't ever want there be a day go by that I don't thank Him for all He's given me... ask for His guidance for what to do next... and tell Robin how much I love him. I think those are some goals that will make the next few months go really really well. And I plan on making sure that happens.
