Updates

Hey all. Lots going on right now for us!

Today, in a few hours, if all goes according to plan, we will be purchasing our first home! It’s a little townhouse on the edge of Winchester, VA, and it’s really cute. It’ll be fun to have it ready to be lived in before we are married in October. Location is fantastic in that we’ll be neighbors with Jeremy, Jessica, and the adorable little Lucy!

We’ve also been busy making with our wedding plans. I had no idea there were so many details associated with one day. God has been so good to us! My sister, Jeanette, has been amazing. She’s helping with so many of the details, and I don’t know what I’d do without her. She’s making my dress, and I couldn’t be more thrilled. I hear it’s beautiful, and I’ll get to try it on in two weeks when Peter and I head to Illinois for a quick visit. We’re going to decide on the church, reception location, and all kinds of other details.

Beyond, hmmm, buying a house and planning a wedding, not too much going on. We’re busy with work; HSLDA’s busy season is almost upon us.

We do manage to have some together time outside of the craziness of life. I’m one blessed girl. Peter and I grow closer and we continue to see God’s faithfulness to us. We’ve been working through a book called, “Sacred Marriage”. The emphasis is on allowing God to use marriage to make us holy rather than seeking our own happiness through it.

There’s a movie being filmed at HSLDA/PHC today, and, heh, I’m going to be an extra. It’s really kind of cool. The cast and crew are all set up in the membership department. I find the whole process fascinating. I even got a little makeup attention and a costume. My white shirt is not cool for filming I guess.

Scratch that, I didn’t end up being in it—apparently a lot of people like the idea of some fame, *grin*. But, it’s funny to be sitting here listening to: “Quiet on the set please”, “Action--QUIET ON THE SET PLEASE”--While I take calls about religious exemption, notices of intent, and the like.

I hope you’re all having a blessed day!
