One.Month.

Bridal confession: When I was little 17, I loved the short-lived Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen TV show "So Little Time." Naturally, my love for the show has since waned...but I still have a special place in my heart for it's theme song, So Little Time by Arkana.

With one.month. left to go before our Big Day...the phrase "so little time, so much to do" fits life to a :::T::: around here. I spent lots of time today frantically making a list of all the things I had told myself didn't need to be addressed until a month before the wedding...and even more time mulling over the lengthy list trying to figure out how + where to begin.

The stress & anxiousness that I have tried so hard to keep at bay have reached an all time high...but at the same time, so has all of my excitement & joy. It really is a very odd place to be. On one hand, I am itching for the day to come and go already so we can all return to life without the constant talk of showers & flowers...and on the other...I am begging time to slow down so I can make the most of this special time in my life.

I am praying tonight that my conflicting feelings would call a truce inside my heart, and that I would feel the peace that only Christ can bring during this time. I know there are lots of you readers who know the crazy combination of stress + excitement + anxiousness + joy + fear that can only come about when planning a wedding. How did  you cope? Any advice?

Heading to bed with a heavy but happy heart tonight. Hoping for renewed energy in the morning to get things done! Planning to blog again this week about exciting things including::: bridal portraits, a bit of decorating progress, & a special lesson God is beginning to teach me.

Oh yeah...and a special thanks to all the loyal readers + followers who offer sweet support & encouragement. Starting this blog has been a great experience for me, and it means a lot that you take the time to read it. Thank you x a million!
