The Waiting Game

I guess most of you have realized that I haven't posted anything in the past few weeks. Right now there isn't too much to report. The most exciting news is that Lewis and I finished all of our pre-wedding planning last weekend, which was right on schedule! We vowed to have everything done by the end of July since school starts in August and our personal schedules get really busy. Right now I'm just waiting on my wedding dress to get here. I'll feel alot better when they call to tell me I can come in for my fitting.

I really wondered how well Lewis and I would get through this planning by ourselves. I knew it would either bring us closer together and strengthen our relationship as a team..... OR it would end in disaster with heated discussions about differing opinions about the wedding. This ain't my first rodeo (I was married in my previous life when I was young and stupid), but this is Lewis' first marriage. I knew from the get-go that he did not know how much time, energy, (and money!!) it takes to pull off a wedding. Lucky for me, he was willing to learn and he never batted an eye. I thought for sure after the first week he would be runnin' for the hills when he saw the seven page to-do list! Let's face it ladies.... how many men REALLY want to be involved in the wedding planning. "Just tell me when and where to show up....." Does that sound familiar?

I'm very blessed to have a wonderful (and patient) man to plan this wedding with me. Although the planning has consumed almost every weekend for the past 3 months, we have had some fun along the way. So for now, I'll wait patiently for September 29th to get here. The wait won't be too bad....... Lewis and I will do that like we do everything else. Well do it together.
