Only.The.Beginning

ENGAGED; Day 4 (First day of blogging! Eeek!):

[[I decided to start this blog to document all my wedding planning adventures! Never in my life have I had a blog; therefore I have no idea what is acceptable in "blog world" and what is not, so forgive me if I botch this up!]]

First things first. Being engaged to Walker is the funnest thing in the world. To know we are beginning the process of spending the rest of our lives together is incredible! The .second. funnest thing in the world would have to be the constant Facebook comments, e-mails, text messages, and phone calls we continue to recieve from our friends and family. The outpouring of love and support has been overwhelming and I simply cannot express our gratitude enough!

One thing I keep hearing over and over is "this is only. the. beginning." I never know if they mean that in an encouraging, or discouraging way...I imagine a little bit of both. For the sake of my sanity, tonight I choose to look at it in an encouraging way. The beginning could not be a better place to be. Not only is this just the beginning of planning a wedding, but its the beginning of planning a new life for Walker and I...and I want to cherish every little moment! Even the stressful ones, even the t e d i o u s ones, even the emotional ones. I cant wait to look back on this blog one day, and be refreshed with .the newness. of all of this. So much is happening so fast, and I will never find myself in this spot again. So bring on the flowers & save-the-dates...I am so glad this is only the beginning!
