Wedding Inspiration

    So Cal and I have a lot of planning to do as far as wedding planning.  There are so many little details to cover! But I honestly love it.  At first it was really overwhelming for us, cause we didn't even know where to start.  So I did what I do best - went on pinterest for a little inspiration, hehe. :)  Cal and I want our wedding to be a bit more personal so were incorporating a lot of DIYs, which I love.  So once I got adequate inspiration from pinterest, I made a collage of all the items I am looking for and made a spreadsheet for friends and family to keep their eyes open for at garage sales and goodwill, etc.  It has been great so far, and it's overwhelming how great and how good people are at finding these things for us!  We are so so thankful. It helps me a bunch too, being a very visual person.

Here is our inspiration!


Who knows if it is actually going to turn out like this, but it's great for me to use this as a guide.  Like other collages I've made, I did this at www.picmonkey.com. Love that program!

Also, if you have any ideas or more inspiration, I would LOVE to check it out!!

Happy Friday!

With love,
Cath

And I am going to marry that man.

Sometimes, he just blows me away.  It doesn't always hit me at first, sometimes it's in the drive home at night when I really think about how loving and selfless  and all around awesome he really is.  And it's in so many ways.

It's in the way he will volunteer to do something even though it scares him half to death because he feels God told him to do it... and then he ends up nailing it.

It's in the way he will not only give a homeless man money at McDonalds, but will talk with him about his journey and his past.

It's in the way he will use his day off to look for internships for me online.

It's the way he loves to play trivia in the car on long car rides.

It's in the way that all he requests for his birthday is that I watch the Star Wars Saga with him.

It's in the way people come up to me and tell me what a blessing he is.

..... and I am going to marry that man.


Happy birthday to the best man on the planet.


With -MUCH- Love,
