Tukey Day gone for another year!

Well I had a pretty good turkey day. We went to my grandma's in Pa and spent the day. My grandma, My aunt Bonnie, My Mom, And My Cousin Gina and I tied 202 rice bags for Bud and I's wedding!

Today is 21 days till the wedding, it's gonna be hectic! Although last night was my last day of work since they didn't put me on the schedule at all for next week! That really upset me and made me feel like I'd been fired but I guess we'll make it somehow! I'm just gonna have to learn to trust on God more!

Please pray that I'll be able to find a job quickly over in PA! I'm nervous about it. I'm gonna try to do some housecleaning jobs and piano lessons and we'll see how that goes!

Well My brother and Ava are going to be here tomorrow and I have cleaning to do today before a Bridal Shower this afternoon so I better go!

LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW, LET IT SNOW!!!!!

O the weather outside is frightful but the fire is so delightful (if it's in the fireplace that is! LOL)! Yes we're finally getting some snow! I really do hope that it snows for my wedding that would just put the icing on the cake! LOL No we'll have fun whether it snows or not!

My cousin and a few other people reminded me yesterday that I don't need to be stressing over little details just relax and enjoy the day! So I'm going to try to put myself in that mindset! It's 29 days till the wedding ya know and there's still a lot to be done!

Only 10 more days and my beautiful niece and my brother will be here for a week! Alicia is staying home this time she's gonna work and work on her dress for the wedding!

Tomorrow I have a dress fitting that I think will be the final dress fitting! My Sister In Laws are coming in too for their dress fitting also! After this weekend I'll be busy every weekend until the wedding! I can't believe how fast time is going! I was telling Bud the other night that this all seems like a dream and that I'm gonna wake up and it's not really gonna be true! Later I told my mom and she said "Do you want me to pinch you so you know it's real?" LOL I guess I just always thought I would be one that would never get married and now I am so it's a dream come true!

Well I've got some cleaning and packing and such to do so I better get off here! TTYL

STRESS, Wedding, STRESS, Wedding, MORE STRESS

Wow I didn't think that all this would get this stressful! I'm at about 4 weeks of planning and 2 weeks from today I'm quitting my job!

Well I know that this post is short but I've got to go get ready for work! I've been busy doing wedding stuff fixing up the rest of the invitations that I didn't have addresses for and everything! I have to be to work at 2 today! They've cut my days back to only 3 days!

I can't believe Thanksgiving is next week and then next will be Christmas and I'll be married for this Christmas! I'm excited. We'll actually be able to be together then! We're both so tired of always just talking on the phone and the times we get to see each other is usually for a different reason like a church gatherings, family get togethers, moving stuff, ect.! O well that's how engaged life goes! Soon it will be work, and chores and everything and then eventually, hopefully children! LOL

Well Gotta Run! TTYL

Musings from My computer

Well I've so much to do and so little time to do it in! It's 39 days till my wedding and I've been getting lazy on all the to do's! (I think I get so much going and then get discouraged because none is actually getting done! LOL :-) need to get out of that habit!)

Went down to Pa on Sunday and started working on the Youth Christmas Program there I think it will be good even though we are few in number (5 to be exact!) We're going to call in another friend of ours who sings and does a good job and is also holiness and he's gonna do a few songs too and I think we came up with a mixed quartet with My fiance, Myself, Matt (a part of the youth group), Eric (the singer we mentioned). I have to come up with the story Tin Can Valley since I will be telling it! The program is the Sunday before our wedding (yeah crazy I know but o well that's what worked out!) Bud and I plan on having the youth over to our house after the program which could be very interesting considering how very small it is! I think my parents may be there also and then me and my family will return to Ohio for one more week of Wedding stuff and then it'll all be over! LOL

Went wedding shopping yesterday and came up with some good ideas! I absolutely love Pat Ca Tans! They're awesome. The floral ladies offered to help me with my bouquets and stuff whenever I get to going on them!
Well I better get off here and get something done! LOL My mom put a loaf of bread in the bread machine and it's sooooo good! I had a fresh hot piece or two earlier , I really need to stop that because I won't fit my wedding dress then boo hoo! :(
Gotta run ttyl! I'll post some new pics of our house when I get some! It looks more lived in now since Bud is living there! He's got a big stereo system and it makes the place thump big time! He barely has to turn it up!

Mooooooving, Moving up to PA Land

Bud came and got a few pieces of furniture on Thursday and Mom and I ended up jumping in the car and following him out to the house and spending the night there. He hadn't officially moved into the house yet but now he's there as of last night! He says he likes in there because it's quiet! And you'd have to know the house he lived in before with all the kids there was hardly ever a quiet moment unless they were all sleeping! LOL

Yeah so I had my bebo account hacked into and someone sent out videos from You-Tube with it crazy people!

Well I have a short time at home today because of a long shift at work (Still only 8 hours) but it seems like more! They are cutting my hours so pray I can find work quickly out in PA! I'm thinking of possibly transferring my job out there to a Giant Eagle but I'm not crazy about it but if that's what works out that's what goes!

Hope for America

Yes this morning as I write to my blog I am more than a little upset with the majority of America, yet I'm still hopeful because God can turn this around and use it for the best. We as Christians need to get on our knees for our new president and pray that He will make the right decisions! God is still on the Throne and He's not forgotten His own!
If you think back to the time of the Great Depression it was democrat that brought this country out of that yes He wasn't the best either but the country still survived! We can survive this! Does it still scare me? Yes it does and makes me want to pray harder!
But we will still have very important decisions to make as Americans in the next few years, are we going to sit Idly by and let President-Elect B. Obama do what he wants with America or are we going to fight with all that is within us? Remember that Obama can propose bills but can't pass them in the same breath! He still will have the Congress, Senate, And House to go through! ( and yes I know most are now democrat!) But God has given us His promise and we'll still hold to that! There is still hope for America! We need to rally and pray for our leaders!
I do not mean that I'm behind Barack Obama 100% (I'm hardly behind him .01%!) because that's a lie! I don't agree with what he agrees with and never will. But we still need to pray for him as he leads our country! I wanted to cry for Sarah Palin and John McCain because certainly they have fought the good fight! God can still use them!

Election Day Woes!

Wow election day is here! I went and cast my vote earlier this morning then had a bunch of errands to run. Now I'm home and going to get busy on wedding stuff till I have to be at work this afternoon!

I've had a peace today about the election and I believe it's God given. God is the author of peace and not confusion and it doesn't help to worry about something you have no control over!

Anyways this is a short post but I really need to get busy! I have so much packing for moving to do and everything. I have 3.5 weeks of work left then 3.5 weeks till our wedding! So I'm going to go work on making pew bows and whatever else I can get into! It's gonna be a busy last few weeks.

Mom and I get to keep my niece Ava for a whole week the first week of December and we're so excited. It'll be the first I've really got to spend time with her since I lived in North Carolina 2 years ago! She's growing so fast I should put some pics up on this post of her!

This was when Keith had his boat she would go on fishing or boating trips with her daddy and loved it!
This was Christmas probably a year or more ago she would kiss the snowmen on Alicia's tree and tell them goodnight when she went to bed!
I just absolutely love this picture of her! She's such a little princess! This was after she had learned to walk so it's a little older I'll try to put some new stuff up here eventually!
This is Ava with Daddy after his return from Iraq on his first tour! She was sure one happy girl! I don't have the pictures from a month ago when He returned from Iraq from His second tour!
She had got a hold of Papaw's (my dad's) reading glasses and was trying to walk around our house it was quite comical! She would stop and look at you over top of them and then try to walk or stumble as it looked! LOL
Mommy took her to feed the ducks at a park on the Neusse River ( I can't remember how to spell it! LOL) where they live.
This was probably about a year ago! Sorry I do have newer stuff just don't have the CD right now! She's adorable though!
