So this weekend was exhausting. Thursday night I got to bed around mid-night just to get up at 5:30 and go to work. I didn't make it in the bed before 2:30 on Friday or Saturday night, but it was all well worth it. I was a part of the BIGGEST wedding probably ever. There were 21 bridesmaids and 16 groomsmen. It was crazy but went well. Staci and Kevin are some of the most PHENOMENAL people you will ever meet and it was an honor to be able to stand on their behalf. Their wedding was more than a ceremony, it was a worship service and was so incredbily glorifying the Lord that they both love.

Brandon and I are still doing well. We have now been dating for a month. It's kinda been hard to believe that this has all come about, but I'm really just trying to enjoy it all and take in every minute.

My mom's brother passed away, leaving her with only one brother and 8 sisters. Now I know that might still seem like a lot, but considering there were 15 to start off with, it's kinda sad. I didn't make it home because of already having been there the week before and plans to go for a week at the end of July.

I leave on the 21st headed on a mission trip with some friends from another church to Philly!! It's going to take everything I have within me not to sing the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air theme song as we pull in.

That's about it. The Lord is still continuing to show me what it means to trust. It's a hard lesson, but I'm sure glad he continues the process.
Here's just a few recent pictures.

The first is of Trae, April and I. We stood together in the wedding and were in charge of dancing fun at the reception.

Around the middle is a picture of Brandon and myself. He makes me pretty happy friends!

Then there's me and Courtney and finally the happy couple themselves Staci and Kevin. Their wedding was incredible and was everything they could have ever wanted.

Time flies....

I'm having a hard time believing that it's already July 2nd. That's crazy.

So as for updates...here they are.

1. I finally got an acceptance letter into Piedmont. I'm pretty excited about this and will start classes in the fall.

2. I'm dating someone. His name is Brandon and he's a pretty neat guy. I really like him a lot and just enjoy getting to spend time with him.

I went home this weekend to see my mom and it was an incredible visit. I didn't really have the chance to go see a lot of "friends" but it was ok, but I got the chance to spend a lot of time with family. My family is getting old, and it's pretty sad to think that soon there may not be that many of them around, so I'm just trying to spend a lot of time with them now while I can.

So that's about it. I work everyday this summer from 9:30-6:30 so it leaves little time for other things, but it's ok. It keeps me out of trouble I guess :)

Hope everyone is having a great summer.
