The showering of love, gifts, and adorable homemade touches has begun! Thanks to my family for throwing me such a cute bridal shower! My mom and sis’s creativity (from food to decorations) made the event into an elegant afternoon with the ladies.

Back in IL
This past weekend, we arrived back in Champaign. It was great to sleep in our own beds, be in our respective houses, and be somewhere familiar to us.

Our New Car
Truly, by the Grace of God, We got ourselves into a little car trouble; at just…the…right…time.

We were able to find out that, unfortunately, it had died. Admittedly, we’d thought it was on it’s last legs. This just confirmed it.
Colorado LT 2012
Starting this weekend, we will both be in Colorado for the summer for Leadership Training program (gcmlt.org) with our network of collegiate churches. The program runs 10 weeks and at it, students work a full time job while digging deep into Christian community and learning about God through great teachings. This is our view for the summer.

Engagement Photos
We recently spent an evening with our good friend, Matt, who blessed us with some amazing photo work.
The Ring
Many folks, when they hear that somebody got engaged, want to see the ring.
