Wedding Plans



Going to the Chapel and I'm gonna get married! Wow! I didn't realize how much work goes into pulling a Fall wedding together. In planning the wedding, Russell and I are keeping the wedding small (in Savannah, GA) and the reception Huge!! (in Franklin,TN) The beauty of all of this is when God is in this and He is - blessings overflow!!!

My dress is so pretty and what makes it even more beautiful is a dear friend of mine bought it for me. She went with me to go "dress shop" and decided along with the others in the store that we had found "the dress." Amanda, my friend and sister from college days, is singing in the wedding! She has the most beautiful voice! My new friend Latric is making the cake for the reception. She's been a long time listener of Doug and Kim and wanted to give us this incredible gift! I am telling you, Ace of Cakes has nothing on her - she makes the most beautiful cakes!!! My good friend Todd ,who owns a Chick-fil-a, is catering my reception as his gift to us!!!! Wait there is more! Charlotte a long time friend, who is also in radio and is an incredible jazz singer is singing our first dance!! And Douglas' gift to us is DJ-ing the reception!!! We are going to have a blast!!! Chicken dance and all!!

So many details taken care of and we are truly thankful!!! All of this is an incredible reminder to me that God cares about each and every detail of your life and of mine!!! As my Grandmother (who I called Bam Bam) used to sing over the kitchen sink, washing her dishes -"Count your blessings name them one by one, Count your blessings see what God has done!"
