I am the most blessed woman. Upstairs there is a man sleeping in my bed that I get to wake up next to every morning. He is my best friend. He is the person I tell all my secrets to and whose secrets I keep safe in my heart. He is the only one I ever want to hold me. He is the head of our household. He is the person who always makes my heart skip a beat even in the middle of a fight. I always love him intensely and he loves me in a way that is consuming. He is my husband. He is a gift from my God. He is my favorite person.
Tonight I am sitting awake (very late at night). I've been balancing a check book, paying bills, budgeting our money for the upcoming month and the rest of this month, and all I can think about is how blessed I am. We have nothing extravagant in terms of things but we are richly blessed with extravagant love and an extravagant God and I couldn't ask for more.
Don't get me wrong, we pray for blessings on our financial situation but I won't sit miserably until God answers because I have the best life with this wonderful man God has given me. We have had trials. We have had heartaches and we still do but our hearts our still full. We are nearly eight months in and I just want to shout to the world for a minute.... EVERY SECOND OF THIS MARRIAGE HAS BEEN GREAT!!!! I have loved every second with him and will continue to love every second. We have our ups and we have our downs but in the end I love him just as much if not more.
Thank you God for this wonderful man you've given me. May you teach me the best ways to love him. Help me to be the best wife I can be for the best husband I could ever have asked for. In Jesus' name.
Just a blog that gives a peek into my life as I do my best to shine the light of Jesus through the darkness of the world :)

My Heart Is Full/First Married Christmas
I am sitting here with a smile on my face, and joy in my heart. I know, I know.... some of you are rolling your eyes thinking about how innocent newlyweds are. It's okay, it doesn't hurt my feelings. I am sitting here with my very first own Christmas tree, lit and decorated. Decorations around the living room. Netflix on the television, and amazing husband sitting beside me on our couch. My heart is full.
This is our first Christmas as Mr. and Mrs. It's been crazy. It's been busy and I have no doubt that it will get busier as the week goes on, but I am loving every bit of it. I love having twice the family to spend the season with. I love figuring out our own traditions. I love coming home and making cookies, watching Christmas movies, listening to Christmas music.... Some of you are still rolling your eyes but we are still having firsts as husband and wife.
I am excited. I know that it's not much different than Thanksgiving but I am excited to sit with my husband at family dinners. I am excited to show up with him and come home with him.
Some of you are gagging. You don't have to read this ya know... you can stop anytime....
Anyway, my heart is full. I get to spend every day with my best friend. I come home and he is here (also, sometimes I come home to him washing dishes. BONUS!!!) Ladies, if you didn't already know, a man who washes dishes is quite attractive;)
I get to go to sleep at night with the person I love most beside me and wake up every morning to him still there. There is never a dull moment in this apartment. Something interesting is always going on. Something crazy is always going on. Memories.... Memories are always being made.... And so my heart is full. We are making memories as husband and wife. This man... that I love more than anyone else.... I get to share life with him. I get to make memories with this man every day.... So my heart is full:)
I know.... you are so done with this post.... That's okay because I am basically just rambling. This is my shouting from the rooftops. Don't get me wrong. Our lives our FAR from perfect. We have struggles and tough times, that while you think you know all about and you think that they are nothing.... you don't know.... we have real problems but we deal with them together.
I am blessed to call this man mine. I am blessed to get to be his wife. And even though we have cried, even though we have had tough times and will no doubt have more in our life together.... There is no one I would rather do life with.... and so.... My heart is full. Okay.... I'll stop now...
One more thing before I go (and yes, my husband approved of me posting this lol). As I was writing this post, he basically slapped the wall with his face.... I am dying lol. He was closer than he thought so when he turned his head really fast, the wall met his face just as fast. Through gasps of trying to breathe, I made sure he was okay, but than I fell onto him laughing. And no, I am not a terrible wife, he was pretty cracked up too lol. 😂😂😂 Like I said, never a dull moment lol.
Enjoying Newlywed Life,

Wedding Update!
I can't even believe as I am typing this but... 8 AND 1/2 DAYS TILL THE WEDDING!!!!!! It doesn't even feel real that in a little over a week I will be getting married to my best friend! WOW!
It has been really crazy just getting everything ready these last few months, wrapping up so plans and getting ready to start our lives together. Now here we are, 8 1/2 days out and I'm struggling to find a good time to pack for the honeymoon!
Some of ya'll stopped and though well maybe I should stop blogging and pack but the things is, I actually need Charles for that so that his stuff gets packed too and he is at work. The excitement is explosive with the two of us as we get ready to say "I do" surrounded by our friends and family.
The anticipation is growing with every passing day, and I just can't wait! I know this is a short post, but I thought I would share my excitement with you all:)
Hopefully, after we get settled into our new lives together I will start back up on writing devotionals for Great News. I am very excited to see what the Lord has in store there as well.
May the Lord bless you all richly with a wonderful day in Christ!

OH MY GOSH!!!!!! I'm getting married in 116 days!!!!! I can't believe it. In 116 days I will marry my best friend:)
For those of you that don't want to count it up but are still curious that is 3 months, 3 weeks, 2 days, and 19 hours until Charles and I say I do! I CAN'T WAIT!!!! Believe it or not, it actually just sink in the other day that I'm ACTUALLY getting married:) Then reality hit of how close the wedding is and I am now even more excited than ever before.
