I can't believe that my last posting has been well over a month and some change ago. So much has happened since my last posting....

AUGUST 8, 2008

Kevin and I got married! We decided that it was more important to live a life pleasing to God than doing things "our way" in efforts to save money for our wedding next year. It feels really good knowing that at the end of the day Kevin and I are in a relationship that is pleasing to God and well with both of our souls.

It really was a nice ceremony. We initially tossed around the idea to get married and only include a witness but over time we both decided that we wanted our parents to be a part of our special day. In the end, we both had representation from our families along with close friends share with us our special day. Looking back at it now, I am so glad that I did things the way I did it. So much of my life I have spent doing things the way others felt I should. I can honestly say that this was one of the first decisions I made that I was 100% bought into and truly supported.

I feel so blessed to know that for the rest of my life Kevin and I are forever connected. We are as ONE and I am so happy!

Our honeymoon was really sweet. We spent the night at a wonderful Bed and Breakfast here in New Bern. I can honestly say it was SO romantic!! Again, it really is the simple things in life that are really near and dear to me. We are planning to do it up big next year, however I will forever remember my simple ceremony followed by my simple honeymoon celebration.
