Dream Girl

Last week Jeffrey and I have had so many things happening all at once. It’s so bad that when I’m not actually organizing something or just thinking about it, I’m dreaming about it when I sleep!!! It’s driving me crazy, I awake up trying to figure out if it actually happened or not! Not to mention that it doesn’t really help with the whole ‘sleeping’ thing. Something tells me that it’s not going to get any slower either. Just this week we’ve been:


- Organizing our fiancés

- Visiting banks

- Filling out bank paper work

- Shopping for wedding stationary

- Filling out job applications

- Writing Selection Criteria

- Ringing teachers Union

- Started pre-marriage counselling

- Filling out booklets

- Scanning documents

- Booking flights

- Booking hirer cars

And the list actually does go on! On top of all that, I managed to pick up a stomach bug and have felt really awful for a few days now. Praying it passes very quickly and stays away. I haven’t been working though so it’s helped to get everything done quickly.... no idea where the week went though!

On Sunday we started our first session of pre-marriage counselling with Ps Robert Bakss while he was down here. We’ve now filled out the form for ‘The Intent to Get Married’ and after emailing him a few more documents it will be lodged. The first session was really interesting as we learnt a lot about marriage in the bible and also realised that we’ve talked A LOT about most of the things in the book. We also have very similar view points and expectations within marriage which is always a very good thing. Before we have our next session we have to fill out a few worksheets about ourselves and about the other person. When we meet next we’ll compare the answers... which will be VERY interesting! Jeffrey booked flights last night for us to go up to Rocky at the very end of April/start of May. Will be good not driving that far!

On Thursday Jeff took me shopping to buy some paper for the RSVP cards, gold paper for the invitations and some beautiful gold ink for Talia’s awesome stamps!!!!! We’re going to have to think about making invitations soon so my lovely cousin Morgan is going to help me with ribbon as she works at Spotlight, very handy!!! Was thinking we might look at some ribbon for all the bridal cars too.

That’s it for this post folks. I’d also like you to note that this post took me over 24hrs to write because I’ve been sick and had to keep saving and finishing later, but all done now! I’d also like to leave this post by saying that Jeff and I ‘might’ have some exciting news to share in a few weeks time... so stay tuned!
