Six days and counting

We have six more days until the wedding!!  I will definitely post pictures after the fact.  We went to the mall last night to find a jacket for the groom.  He found one in Macy's for half price!!  Good deal.  While they were at one end of the mall finding a jacket we were at the other finding shoes for 50% off!!!  Work boots for the Appliance Man and wedding shoes for me!!  We weren't even looking for them - just giving a ride to the bride/groom!  God is good.  My outfit is complete.  Appliance Man, aka Father of the Bride, has only to get his suit out of the cleaners and buy a shirt.  Brothers of the Bride need shoes and one pair of pants, maybe some socks...  we need to buy a few more plates/bowls/silverware/etc.  Food is ready.  Cupcakes assigned.  By Friday I am hoping to be able to just sit back and relax...  :)  I WILL sit back and relax. 

This morning in Sunday school we were studying chapter 3 of Esther.  We are using Beth Moore's study.  This study is the first women's Bible study I've sat in on for 9.5 years - ONLY because I've been employed by the church and was constantly being interrupted in class and felt that was not fair to the other ladies.  I LOVE the Bible study - - talk about for 'such a time as this' - oh my - - - perfect study for the last few months of my life.  I love it.  Learning so much.

And one last thought - before closing today - I watched a movie the other day - can't remember the name of it, bummer, but one phrase stuck out in the whole movie - so much in the movie I could relate to - but the phrase - "be happy with what you do have."   Good thought.

  1. How's everyone's nerves? :)
    Excitement is in the air, I'm sure.

    Oh, thanks for the advice on sticking with OUR plans instead of bending for others. I'll remember that.
