Tomorrow=big day
Tomorrow is the official ONE MONTH count down until I become Mrs. L (that's right...add that "R" in MS.) :)
I know that the Lord has been working in multiple ways since Grey and I started dating but especially since we've been engaged, it's been awesome to see Him at work with my emotions.
I have gone from not caring about wedding plans, to being overly concerned about certain wedding rituals (if you'd like to call them that :) ) to being at the utmost peace about this whole process.
So where do I currently stand? I'm ready to get married! I'm ready to end this awkwardness of the "in between" stages of dating and married. I'm ready for him to "stay over" instead of leaving my apartment at 9:00 every night. I'm ready to see him every day instead of once a week (weekends if I'm lucky). I'm ready to cook him waffles and chocolate chip pancakes. I'm ready to cry and have someone there to comfort me instead of two hairy fur balls of Oliver and Franklin (cats in case you missed that). I'm ready to travel places together, have married date nights, and snuggle past 9:30. I'm being completely honest here, but I'm ready to not have a set of boundaries scrolling in my brain at all times. I'm ready to snuggle with him at night when I'm cold instead of snuggling with a pillow. I'm ready to fight with him and have the complete certainty that everything will be ok because we're committed to each other. I'm ready!
How excited am I to be marrying this guy?!
I'm thrilled! :)

"I’m running back to your promises one more time, Lord that’s all I can hold on to, I gotta say this has taken me by surprise, but nothing surprises you. Before a heartache can ever touch my life, it has to go through Your hands, and even though I, keep asking why, I keep asking why,
No matter what, I’m gonna love You, no matter what I’m gonna need You, I know that You can find a way to keep me from the pain but if not,if not, I’ll trust you, no matter what, no matter what."
LOVE IT! :)

Footed PJ's and Fiance Goodness
Footed PJ's are as my oldest sister says, THE BEST THING EVER!
You can read it on her blog.
What are footed pajamas you might ask?
They're the comfiest, softest, FLEECE LINED, bed time wonder that you've ever experienced. AND! Can I just say that the polar bear feet have SQUEAKERS on them!?
As Kait would say, "Hallelujer!"
As you might guess if you looked at Kristi's blog, you can tell that both Kristi AND I have footed pajamas. Can you guess what's coming next?!
Dearest Jenny,
It is imperative that you buy footed pajamas if you want to fit in (just kidding) and/or have the most blessed sleep ever. Look at the picture below...We're missing you in our hug! :)
Love, your two older sisters
**Disclaimer** I realize that I can't speak for Kristi in this situation, so I'm just going to assume that she agrees with me! :)
Hehe...
On the other hand, I cried today when I got home. Do you know why? My super wonderful, sweet, handsome, God fearing fiance did this:
I'm totally blessed! :) Happy Monday!

Countdown!
Things to do before I get married (both practical and not) in 37 days!
1)Get wedding rings
2)Find a rehearsal dress (I'm hoping for a sweater dress and boots look...any suggestions?)
3)Find a sub for the Thursday and Friday before
4)Finish round two of the entire Friends series (Currently, Rachel has a bun in her oven)
5)Have a total pig out session and finally order a pizza at 3am like I've always wanted to. Any takers? (You'll have to convince me to stay up that late though)
6)Get a marriage licence
7)I'd REAAAAAALLLLLLLLLYYYYYY like another tattoo (something tee-tiny on my ankle)
8)Take a bubble bath (I haven't had the chance to take one since this summer)
Any you think I should add?
