Home Stretch

We’re starting in the home stretch to the wedding, and I am starting to feel both more confident and more overwhelmed with each day.  Scott and I continue to grow in love for each other, and in this way, I am confident for our life together and that our love has a real foundation on respect, communication, and trust—elements that are increasingly absent in relationships in our times.  However, the wedding planning process continues to make me nervous as I enter in to the last 11 weeks of getting everything together.  Small victories are exhilarating events for me. Today I dropped off the paper to be printed and cut—and when I picked it up, I felt a huge weight off my shoulders.  I can’t even imagine how I will feel Monday when they are in the mail.  Despite the difficulty of balancing work, school, and wedding planning, I am continually looking forward to that day 11 weeks from now when Scott and I, in the witness of all of our friends and family, will enter a covenant of love and faithfulness to one another for the rest of our lives.

…AND, I’m really looking forward to that Barbados vacation right after :D
