Yall are not gonna believe this...

REALLY, you're NOT.  I'm married.  Yeah, in the past 3 months, since the last time I blogged, I have gotten married.  Let me not also forget to mention to you....a baby.  A baby is coming too.  The BIGGEST blessings of my LiFE have come at me HARD and FAST and I could not be more GREATFUL!  The words to one Kris Kristofferson song come to mind..."why me LORD?  What have I ever done, to deserve even one of the pleasures I've known?"
Love that song!  Love KK!  Love these blessing and the LORD!

SO...A-Bass and I had been talking about getting married for a while.  We had also talked about going through the DUE process.  We should wait.  Everyone will think we are crazy if we do this too quickly.  We know we love each other.  We know we want to marry one another.  BUT, let's wait.  There is a proper procedure/time frame for all of this. 

AND the LORD said, "SMACK!  hey you planners, I think not."

Baby.  I found out I was going to have a baby.  Initial shock, worry, what will people think we are not married, all went away as we told our friends and family.  Excitement, joy, thankfulness set in.

Well then, that October-fall-pumpkin-mum wedding I had always hoped for was upon us.  WE started planning with the help of our family/friends. People I love, really demonstrated how much they love me through all the work they put into that event.  AWESOMENESS.  Not the way I planned to be married, but just the way it was planned for me.  I never felt like I lost a moment of anything that a "normal" bride would have experienced.  Due to the awesomeness of people around me, there were showers, parties, and all things associated with a bride-to-be.


 It was MORE than I thought it would be.  It was MORE fun, More stuff, MORE people, More cake, More decorations, MORE gifts, MOre photos, MORE flowers, MORE help, MORE pretty, MORE hair, MORE dress, MORE LOVE than I had ever imagined.  I am so thankful for all of it. 






I wouldn't take any of this back.  I would not change the way this happened.  I would not "fix" a thing.  It was perfect.  The route our lives have taken is perfect.

AND my most favorite to DATE (thanks to our awesome photographer miss Maleigh)


Sooooo....as you can see, we have had some busy past few months.  I cannot wait to celebrate Thanksgiving with my new husband!  Not to mention, the last meeting until who-knows-when of TAMU and tu.  Some eventful weeks are ahead of us!  Christmas will be here soon (I cannot wait).  I am particularly in the mood this year!  ThEN, the event that helps pay the bills, the ROdeo will be here.  ANd this year this event brings an even more special blessing, our baby.  That's right.  Our first child is due smack dab in the middle of the Rodeo-can't wait!  So unitl then, I will enjoy being a new wife, the holidays, and sit back and gestate. :)
 Blessings yall!!
