Check yes or no.

I recieved some of the RSVP's back today. It was exciting to see the stack of little envelopes waiting for me when I got home from work. Everyday the wedding seems closer and closer. I am realizing more and more how good God has been to be throughout this process. How things have fallen into place makes me realize how out of my control everything truly is. If we had attempted to do this on our own it would have been so much more stressful and worrisome. I am constantly comforted by the fact that he is in control, and ultimately it is all to glorify him in the end. It doesn't really get any better than that.

“For I know the thoughts that

I think toward you, says the Lord,

thoughts of peace and not of evil,

to give you a future

and a hope.”

(Jeremiah 29:11)

a lovely day

My beautiful friend Justine took me around the cities for the day. It was such a fun day spent catching up on each other's lives. First stop was Anthropologie...aka the store where I can't afford anything but wish to pretend I live the beautiful eccentric life personified by everything within it. I did purchase a few items on clearance...such as a belt and two candle holders. Even though most of the items are way out of my price range, I still love getting ideas from the store and finding other ways to get the similar styles.

Next stop. Justine's lovely house which of course holds her amazing room. It was my first time seeing her place, but I definitely could tell it was her room right away.

Then we made our way to a cool little restaurant in uptown and had a nice lunch and then we decided to head to the downtown salvation army. That is where the adventure begins, at least I am choosing to call it an adventure when really it was us getting lost with no air conditioning in a HOT car for an hour or so. We managed to laugh about it along the way, all while sweating not so gracefully, ha. We finally arrived at our destination, and I managed to find some shirts for my latest project (that will be another post).

                   

               

Finally, we returned back to Justine's place for some delicious dessert and coffee. It was such a great day, and I am blessed to have a friend that is willing to plan such a thing for me.

Brrrrrrrr.

Hot Chocolate is such a blessing in the winter.

The same goes for having a loving fiance to make it for you.
