We're Getting Married

THE WEDDING IS 33 DAYS AWAY!!!!

Here's the way I see it. I'm not one of the those girls who had has her whole wedding picked out since she was small or has dreamed about every detail. I am the girl who dreams about all the days after. I am the girl who knew before we were even officially dating that that this is the boy, who turned into a man, that I am supposed to marry. So many things in life are unsure. But when you meet the one person that makes your heart beat to a different rhythm, makes your breath flow in and out a little easier, and gives you a reason to smile just by walking in the room, you know not to let them go. They are your sure thing.

The ebb and flow of life refines and molds us and our love grows as we do. And one day, I hear the four words that were 7 years in the making. In that moment the picture of my life becomes clear. This man that I adore has just asked me to spend the rest of my life with him. It was truly a mountaintop experience. And then your lives become intimately intwined. Planning intensely to begin your life together.

As each day passes and more and more planning moves behind us the picture of our life starts to focus. There is such a beauty found in two lives joining into one. The oneness that will begin on May 27th will change us forever. Words cannot describe the feeling of joyful anticipation to become Mrs. Jonathan Patrick Sykes.
