On our to do list:
-
-
-Put paint on the walls of the bedroom
-Empty kitchen cabinet so that we can tear them out
-Start boxing things that will be donated
-Get wedding invitations in order and sent out
-Graduate college!
We could not get all these things done without the help of friends and family, so I am endlessly thankful for the help we have received thus far. Everyone has been so willing to come help. We are very blessed and I feel like we say that all the time but each time we mean it.
Despite the joy and the blessings we have also been faced with difficulty as my grandmother (who's home we are moving into) had been admitted in the hospital. It brings a new perspective as we are beginning a new part of life so is she. I have been saddened as we move through the house and I think of the memories I have there with my grandparents. I am honored to walk in their home and call it our home in the near future, but I am saddened that my grandmother had to leave her home behind. She is a beautiful, talented and rambunctious woman that I hold so dearly to my heart. I have been beyond blessed in the times we have spent together and the happiness she has brought to David & my life. Whoopie is such a great grandmother to myself and my cousins. We have set other plans aside to bask in the times we have to spend with her. We are unaware of what the future holds but one thing my family has always taught me is that family comes first and in this time we are holding her dear to our hearts. Please keep her in your prayers in the days to come.
So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
-Isaiah 41:10
