May the planning continue...

Alrighty... I would say let the planning begin but as most of you know I already have started... Here is a picture (sorry for the blurriness) of my wedding planner, two giant books of invitation samples, ring bearer pillow, and two flower girl baskets... this is just a sample of what planning has already been done. I'm thinking about getting a cake from a place in Owensboro called Laval's if anyone knows about this place please let me in on your knowledge! We got the flower girl dresses yesterday because they are in my sister's wedding as well... with pool sashes... and I also was able to order pool sashes for all of the bridesmaids to go with their truffle dresses (which my sister ordered yesterday as well!)... http://davidsbridal.com/bridesmaids_detail.jsp?stid=2326&prodgroup=110 ... As exciting as it is to get this stuff... I must also add that I have been very disappointed in the services I have received from all David's Bridal's more on that at a later date though...

It really is wedding time... here are a list of the people that I know so far that have gotten married since I graduated... and the list will only get longer... Congrats to:
May 10 - Darrick and Kat Holloman
May 17 - Emily and Dusty Snyder... Crystal and Jordan Floyd... and... Chris and Sarah Adkins
May 24 - Mandy and Korey Oliver... Amber and Seth Moore
May 31 - Shawn and Amanda Greenwell
June 7 - Tiffany and Patrick Donahue... Kristen Caudill (this makes me a bad neighbor... I have no idea who you married!)

But like I said the list will go on!

Well...

I think I have an ear infection or just an ache! I woke up tossing and turning with a pounding in my ear about 3 am this morning... I took some advil and got some ear drops! You better believe nothing... is going to stop me from coming to see the people I love in Campbellsville this Friday! Just pray that i make it through work!

I Choose... YOU!


In exactly... 126 days... or 4 months and 4 days... or 18 weeks... whichever you may prefer... this man will be my husband! This is one of my favorite pictures of Mr. Garrett Gilkey taken even before we were dating... I think it was this picture that I saw and thought I could really like this guy! And well... as all of you know by now I more than really like this guy... I love and adore this guy! Although the next months are going to be difficult given that I am in Morganfield and he is in Campbellsville until the big day arrives I know that it will be all worth it in the end right!?!? I mean... afterall... I do get to spend the REST of my life with this wonderful man. If you don't know him then you are truly missing out on a God given man... the one that makes me laugh and is there for me when I cry. I miss you terribly Garrett Gilkey and I long for the day that I will be your wife! I love you and can't wait to see you again!

Missing Cville...


Well this is going on my fourth week at home I think and here are four people that I miss the most from Campbellsville! I got the privilege of getting to talk to them through ichat the other night which was great and helped me to miss them a slight bit less... but it doesn't trump getting to see them in person! Can't wait until next weekend when I get to come visit you all! Love you and miss you!

Outrigger Island!


On Outrigger Island we live God's Unshakeable Truth... well this past week I taught 4 year olds at our VBS... you gotta love VBS! The songs always... always get stuck in your head! It was a pretty alright week... I have no desire to relive it though! I'm exhausted and now know that I am in no way ready for children any time soon. I did learn that this week... being around tons of kids works as well as birth control! Hope you enjoy your vbs week if you should be so lucky as to have one! ;)

Congrats Tiffany and Patrick!


So... my neighbor is getting married today... Tiffany a girl I can remember for the longest time next to my bff Janna! Most of my summers were spent playing outside or swimming with Tiffany! As of 6 o'clock tonight she will no longer be Tiffany Farthing... She will be Tiffany Donahue! Congrats to Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Donahue!!!

Welcome Back to Morganfield... Take 2!

Alright here we go again...
You know that you're from the country when you have to travel back roads to get anywhere!
You know that you're from the country when you see Amish Crossing Signs alongside the Deer Crossing signs
You know you're from the country when you pass a truck that has "Chicks Dig It" plastered across the front windshield...
You know you're from the country when a glass of sweet tea brightens your day... and we have to make sweet tea more than once a day around here.
You know you're from the country when you can not avoid a country accent at any point during the day... seriously what are these people saying!?!?

So Long... from the M-field!
