{Signed, Sealed, Delivered}

We have a new home folks! Okay so not brand new nor will we own but hey this is exciting, we won't have to live out of our tent when we move. That was a complete wacky sentence and for that I apologize but we are thrilled to finally have a sense of security. We plan to buy or build next year in South Carolina but for now we are going to rent in NC but I'm still close (5 miles) to my job.

Pretty cozy right? The lease starts Sunday and we plan to make it a slow move since we don't technically have to be out of our current place until August 4th. We are thankful that we found a decent place at a decent rate. Now, prayers for Todd to find employment. I know that God has something great out there for him but the waiting can be difficult...

Thanks friends. Much love.

{Introducing Mr. and Mrs. Jones}

Last Saturday we were both involved in my sisters wedding. The weekend was SO busy that I barely took any pictures. My parent's house was a hot mess with all the wedding "stuff" and Jamie was just beginning to get a little super nervous!

The wedding day was beautiful yet rather hot. In fact, it was the hottest day ever with temperatures at record high. Jamie was absolutely gorgeous. It was such an honor to stand beside her as her matron of honor (along with my other sister, Ronna) and watch her dreams come true. Jamie has waited a long time for that moment. I'm so proud of her for remaining true to herself for so many years and holding out for Mr. Right.

I really regret not taking any pics at their beautiful reception at the Peninsula Country Club. The venue was awesome and we all had a great time catching up with old friends. I also never took a pic of me and Todd. What was I thinking!?! Oh well, I have great memories stored in my head and look forward to seeing the pics from their photographer. 

In other news...

Today is my 25th birthday and it has been awesome! I got a neuromuscular massage this morning which is more like a medical massage. With my former TMJ issues, my upper back and neck were targeted. Not going to lie, it was a little painful but the good kind. I realized today that I'm super tense in so many areas and believe that is what causes so many headaches/backaches. I'm thinking of going back soon for another round to help ease some pain. Later today, Todd took me to do some shopping in Blowing Rock in which we completed with dinner and ice cream at Kilwins. It has been an awesome day!

Much love,
