Satin Robe, and the Next Chapter.

Today I've realized there is more to life than just the present. It's not about how your key board refuses to type every 20th key, or the fact that everyone you work with doesn't do half of what you do but gets paid more... its about more than that.
I can't sit and wait for the future or destiny to find me. I can't. I cannot sit and wait. I'm not your average person to follow the book. Who decided there was a book. It's my life, I'm the author so you better be ready to live life. I think too long I've waited for friends to come to me. I'm not one to go out all the time. I'm more than content to stay around the house and sip coffee while watching my cat peer out the window at the rain drops.
In about 19 days I start the next chapter in my life. So many people don't even get their next chapter. Their books end in a hospital, at their home, off the roof of a shed... why am I not living the fullest until it's my books turn to write it's final page? I want to be so many things. I want to be that perfect house wife, I want to be the powerful working woman my mother is, I want to be a mother. God has everything decided. I want to let him lead. My problem is, I haven't. I'm so excited to see whats going to happen.
Sometimes I wish my life was a musical. Let me tell you my theme song would be "Don't Rain on my Parade" another song would be " For Good" from Wicked. Gosh... Music... ahhhh... Well it's time I head to bed.. Big day tomorrow.

Love.

Flapper Shower

Today was my first wedding show. I will say it was super fun! I was kind of bummed that my bridesmaid brandi couldn't come. She said she was 'sick' but, I think she just didn't want to drive. I was also kind of dissapointed my friend Alicia didn't even text me to say 'hey I cant come.' I love her to death, but sometimes its frustrating. Thats what happens with friends. I'm sure there was a reason.

Over all the people who really mtter to me came and thats what counts. It was a good time, and I got some really stinking cute stuff. I hope my family shower is fun next weekend! Well, I should get to bed... I do have to work tomorrow... oh.. and tan! hehe I'm wearing white pants next weekend.. I need to look good.

LOVE.

Soon To Be

Tomorrow is the official four week mark. Four weeks until I'm married. Wow, that is and increddible thought. I've been so blessed. I've finally had a little time to sit and reflect on this. So far everything has been relatively easy. My first wedding shower is this weekend... and WOW am I excited. My favorite people are planning it, so I know it will be good. It is suppose to be flapper and intimates party. I'm excited. My mom was talking about how she hopes I like her gift. I know what she got my sister, I hope it's a 'little more sexy' than hers was. But you know, my mom and I are pretty similiar so I'm sure it will be fine.

So I was thinking today, I hope everything is getting done. I HOPE. haha. It hasn't really set in that I'm going to be married soon. I think the one thing I want to do on my wedding is laugh. I really don't want tears! I really don't have much to say today except my shoes look like the picture above! I got them today. They are a little big, but I think they will work well! hehe pink chucks. OH! and my nephew finally fits into his chucks. That makes me happy. ANYWAY.... I have some ice cream comming my way.

ps mini blog.... -) I'm so excited for my best friend Lesley and her husband. I'm happy that they are blessed to be expecting a little girl !! She is going to be just as beautiful as her mother! I can't wait to see her face!

LOVE.
