Seventy Nine Days to Go

So, Yes alot has been happening and I have been doing tons of research on how I want to decorate the Carriage House. I will have more of an idea after I visit tomorrow.

Jon and I have also decided to do a First Look on our wedding day and our photographer was soo uber excited.

 "THAT'S SO AWESOME THAT YOU DECIDED ON DOING A FIRST LOOK!!!!!!!!
THIS IS SOOO AWESOME!!!!!!!!! *SPINNING HIGH KICK* I am happy and would be honored to capture you praying together."


Also, as I mentioned above, the bridesmaids dresses are coming along quite beautifully thanks to Miss Kaitlyn Dobbins. Here's a sneak peak:


The detail is amazing :) Thank you so much Kaitlyn!!!!

Also, I have been looking at hairstyes YAY! Here are some I like:



So, basically, I love the big high bun and the big curls.

I think i will have more of an idea of what I want when i get the dress :)

In other news, check out this picture Jon posted for me to see:


He so sweet and 100% completely the man of my dreams.
When it really comes down to it, all that really matters on August 12th is that I am marrying Jonathan Morey. Even if the decorations fall over and the music is boring...Even if I trip as I walk down the aisle (this is something that would happen to me) and my dress tears in two...even if the the food is burnt and the power goes out....The look in his eyes and the fact that I will be his wife as long as we both shall live is all that matters.

Say Cheese!!!!

Well, we have a photographer!!! Yay!

And she seems so awesome and talented :)

Her name is TG Anderson
 Blog


We are going to skype sometime this week to talk about artsy fartsy wedding and photo things. That should be fun! She seems so sweet and I cannot wait to meet her.





In other news...


We (Jonathan, our mothers, Jon's sister and grandma and me) have been working hard on invitations and addresses. Last night we finally picked one out from a website called eInvite . You'll just have to wait and see what they look like though ;)  This website has great deals and really pretty invites. They also have good reviews!

Hakuna Matata.
No worries. Right?

That is what I have to keep telling myself and what God has to keep pointing out to me.  It is so easy to get caught up in the chaos of wedding planning or school or work or just the busyness we create for ourselves.  But, when all is said and done, only one Being matters - Yahweh. And He says not to worry. He works thing out for the good of those who love Him. So, I should probably focus - really focus on loving Him and spending time (not my leftovers) with him. 

...just something really simple to think about

Needle and Thread

Well, Kaitlyn's status says it all:

‎"2 stores and 23 yards of fabric later, i am off to make some beautiful bridesmaids dresses!! oh by the way, if anyone is looking for the peach colored april johnston fabric, don't go to the mantua or deptford joanns.....they ran out ;)"


So now Kaitlyn has her work cut out for her....and plenty of cutting to do!!!!

Here's what we found:

Beautiful peach and cream fabric along with some lace:)




The Pattern



We won't do the high bow though. It'll be a lace bow around the waist.

....Love Story

These lyrics remind me of Jon and I. I am so happy he found me...

...I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you is fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town, and I said

Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring

And said, marry me Juliet
You'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story baby just say yes...

The end...and the beginning

Graduated from college this past weekend and I could not have done it without my amazing family and the man of my dreams.

Since we are from 2 different states, Jon and I will spend the next few months away from each other with our families. I miss him already and cannot wait to be his bride and little wifey.

Here are some photos from grad:
