It's Been A While

So it's been a while since my last blog. In fact, it's been 15 days. Want to know how I know that (other than using a calendar of course)?

Because we only have 15 days left!

So what have I been up to in the last 15 days you may ask? Well, a lot.

Carlee moved to Birmingham to begin her freshman year of college at Samford. She now lives 1.5 miles from me!



Carlee trying on her bridesmaids attire at dinner. What a trooper.

Therefore I shamelessly use her as my bridesmaids jewelry/dress/makeup/hair model. 

We bought a dining room table.
 

I never thought I'd see the day when I would get so excited about new furniture. But alas, that day has come.

I've figured out my hair style for the wedding.

This probably sounds silly and insignificant to some people, but knowing what my hair will look like that day and having the peace of time that it'll look good is a huge load off my shoulders.

Jason and I got to celebrate our upcoming marriage with all of our friends from Destin at our hometown gathering.



We were so blessed to get to visit with all of my family's nearest and dearest friends. We also got the pleasure of finally introducing part of Jason's family to my family!

I received my first gifts with my new monogram!


This may seem silly or insignificant as well, but when you've had one name your whole life and then it changes, that's a pretty big deal!

We've also:
Finalized our vows and the order of our ceremony.
I read one of the best books I've ever read, "Redeeming Love" (more on that later).
Experienced the first college football weekend of the year.
Completely reorganized and redecorated an apartment.


So, as you can see, we've had a busy two weeks...and the busy-ness will continue on for another two weeks. Thankfully, we have tons of help and lots of understanding friends and family.We cannot wait for our wedding day! We cannot wait to be The Morales'!
