| In 95 days and less than 12 weeks, I will be married!!!! I'm so excited. It seems like it's getting closer as other things are happening too. Spring is here and so it's warm and I will be graduating in a month and a half... So much is happening right now. Thank God that I'm up for this adventure.
Ok, the MOST random thing ever: I was mingling at a social work conference a couple weeks ago and all of a sudden who is standing in front of me saying "Michelle?!" Angie is right there staring at me trying to get my attention. It was so fun to see her! We hugged and I almost started crying when I realized that the last time I saw her or talked to her was the day I left the Ranch. It was weird to see her not at the ranch. Cuz you know how if you see someone out of their usual context, you don't as easily recognize them? Well that was the case. | | |
| I'M OFF TO COLORADO WITH THE LOVE OF MY LIFE FOR 10 DAYS!!! | | |
| So there on the left you will see my cute fiance and me last weekend. We're in love.
I'm so sorry that I've been bad at updating. I've been so busy and the only reason I have time to write right now is because... well, actually I don't have time, but I'm wasting time due to lack of wanting to write a stinkin long paper tonight...
Anyways, in two weeks or so Andy and I will be at the half way mark of our engagement. Practically three months to go!!! I can't believe it.
School is going well. I feel so busy though cuz Spring Break is coming up this Thursday. Andy and I are driving to Colorado for ten days!!! Quality time. Yeah. We're actually spending time with his mom (and step dad and stuff) and my dad who both live out there. Ironic, huh?
I'm going to try and put my bride's maid dress picture on here... I sure hope it works!
Okay, I love you all. Especially Anne. | | |
| Holy stinkin crap. I went to the most AMAZING conference last weekend. I went (with my love) to hear Brennan Manning speak. You seriously can't help but cry. He's amazing and my life has been changed. He just helped me to see in a very real way how much jesus loves me and how that helps me to love too. Myself and others... And to LIVE like I'm loved. It was so refreshing and I felt like a new person. My roommate saw how affected I was by hearing Brennan speak that now she's reading one of his books. And she's loving it too. I recommend "Abba's Child". Then Andy and I had incredible talks and our relationship was renewed too. I just feel so awed in God's presence and it's awesome! This weekend I'm going home to do the 30 hour famine with Andy and his youth group. I've never even fasted before. So I'm actually very much up for the challenge and am quite excited to see how God can work in our hunger, especially when we seek Him to fill us up instead of food.
On a side note, my fiance is a hunk.  | | |
| I miss ya'll.
My life has been really kinda strange for the past month or so... I quit my job and currently don't have one. I'm actually kinda wondering why I work EVER... I think I'm actually starting a new job next week working with a young girl who is disabled. It really intimidates me, but I know I would learn a lot...
I'm liking planning my wedding. You would be soooo shocked at how many things you suddenly have to think about when you're going to be married. This weekend, Andy and I are registering for gifts and possible looking at wedding bands. Andy is currently training for Grandma's Marathon TWO WEEKS before out wedding. I sure hope he doesn't pull something.... 
I really can't believe sometimes that I'm graduating soon and then getting married... Is this a dream? I feel like I've looked forward to this moment for my whole life and now there is so much going on that I can barely live in my very own reality.
Okay, next... WEDDING SONGS??? Any good ideas? I haven't really started looking yet, but if ya'll have a super song that you just know I need at my wedding... Then by all means, please don't hold back! | | |
