It's been too long!


Well, Will and I have been busy...and Lazy...we've had a lot going on in our lives and little time to really sit down and update the website. So this will be a LONG post with a lot of information. First, we have our entire bridal party selected and they've all agreed. YEAH. I'll be having my sorority sisters Jennifer Blakeney and Misty Skinner. Then my friends Rachel Hutchins and Kimberly Barber, and Will's sister Draper Matthews. Will's Party consists of his father Jack Matthews, fraternity brothers Will Sanders, Matthew Harrison and Charlie Mangrum, childhood friend Jason Archer, and friends Ty Buchanan and Dallas Blakeney. It was only fitting for us to include Jennifer and Dallas since they set us up.
I've put my house on the market (fingers crossed it will sell soon) and Will has a new job. He's also been working on the house and the yard trying to get it looking more like we'd like it. It's a lot of hard work but someone has to do it. I've purchased my wedding dress...no pictures of that :) and picked out everything for the bridal party. We are planning to get our engagement shots done sometime early next month (there will be lots of those photos here). We've already attended one of our 3 summer weddings and that's helping us realized all of our little details that need to be done. We've also found a church that we can comfortably call home. We've been attending Mountain Chapel in Vestavia. It is a long drive, but it's well worth it. Some of my volunteers go there and a couple of our friends do too! The sermons are very enriching and the church family is so nice. It really has been a blessing to have a place that we can call home. We are planning to join sometime in the following months as soon as our weekends calm down and we can devote more time even during the week to the church.
Oh yeah...last but not least...we've taken a HUGE step and bought our RINGS. YEAH!!!!! No backing out now :) Hope this didn't bore you all too much and we look forward to seeing our friends and family at the wedding.
