Hurry up May...

...I want all these weddings to get started!

This spring has been filled with wedding showers so far and it makes me so impatient! I want all of my friend's BIG DAYS to be here! Now! Not many people understand how much goes into planning a wedding until they've done it themselves. Luckily, I had my mom to help me so I did not fail out of college and have to come home every other day. To those of you getting married soon... who feel stressed and out of control, it goes by faster than you think. Seriously, SOAK IT UP! You only have one wedding to plan (hopefully) and that big day will go by so fast you will only remember a few things about it!

This wedding talk makes me want to take a trip down memory lane...

What an awesome time! Can't wait for Veronica & Josh, Kim & Caleb, and Amanda & Jacob's day!

It's not Snowing!--April Fools.

As much as I would love for summer to be here... I don't exactly hate snow yet!

It's coming down fast in Blowing Rock today... which just makes this place even more beautiful! There are only a few people who can say that they love their place of work, and I am one of them. Seriously, this town is awesome and I get to rearrange art and home decor for my job, while I drink coffee and chat with customers about their vacations so far. I get to enjoy the occasional free food from Speckled Trout across the street and work with some of my best friends. What could be better?

Unfortunately, these sweet little white flakes just scare people off and we've only had about 8 people come in the store today. What a shame...





Anyways, I usually try and read the daily devotionals on crosswalk and today's was amazing. Max Lucado's writing always gets to me.


Read the whole thing here but I included a little snip if you don't have time:

"Perhaps you, like Pilate, are curious about this one called Jesus. You, like Pilate, are puzzled by his claims and stirred by his passions

What do you do with a man who calls himself the Savior, yet condemns systems? What do you do with a man who knows the place and time of his death, yet goes there anyway?

Pilate’s question is yours. “What will I do with this man, Jesus?”

You have two choices.

You can reject him. That is an option. You can, as have many, decide that the idea of God’s becoming a carpenter is too bizarre—and walk away.

Or you can accept him. You can journey with him. You can listen for his voice amidst the hundreds of voices and follow him."
