Well, well, well

House: Well, my house has sold as I've already said before-praise the Lord-BUT now I have to get a few things sorted out according to the inspectors. I have to have the well sealed(I didn't even know there was one on the property), the furnace inspected and cleaned, and some outlets changed out. I guess not too bad-except for the well deal.

Wedding: Plans are coming along quite nicely. I had my dress fitting on Friday and that went well, picked out our guestbook, and did some shopping for other things. It's a lot to think about but Troy is a BIG help!

Other misc: My niece and nephews slept over last weekend and we had a blast. Those kids are so much fun! It was the last sleepover at Aunt Beth's and they are all sad. Some things that I didn't know were tradition for them at my house but are is reading Molly Lou Melon, and Walter the Farting Dog. Jonah also LOVES to listen to my IPOD and his favorite song is Otto Titsling. I didn't want to make a big deal out of it so I've never said he can't listen to it but I was looking at the music plays and he's listened to it about 40 times! I wonder when he'll start singing it around the house. Ha ha! Just Jonah and Jaron slept over Sat. night and on the way to some awesome fireworks Jaron said, "I know a rule that can never be broken!"
Aunt Beth, "What is that?"
Jaron, "You must always love God."
Aunt Beth, "Yes, that's true, what made you think of that?"
Jaron, "My brain just told me that."
Ha ha-those kiddos are cuties!

My dad turns 60 tomorrow so we had a party to celebrate on Sat and it was a nice turn out despite the weather.

My Grandma turned 88 and my dad and I went to see her last Tuesday and my dad hired a guitarist to sing and play old songs for her. It was GREAT! A sad part was that he sang "I'll Fly Away" and I overheard my Grandma say to the guitarists wife, "Oh, I just had a dream about this and it was so exciting and wonderful" Verna Barnes is ready to meet her maker. She is excited to see Jesus face to face. I gently reminded her before we left that we love her and while she's here she should try to make the best of every day. That was my incredibly selfish way of saying-I want you to come to my wedding!!! She is one amazing lady whom I have loved to get to know so much better over the past few years. Praise God!

Enough for now. Peace!

Happy July!

House: Well, I have good news! I sold it! It has sold, I can't believe it! I thought it would take a year! I guess when you're practically giving it away it changes things a little bit. Closing is on August 11! Whew-check that off the list!

Wedding: The last month has been a blur. We made our invites, sent them out, I found my dress, we booked our honeymoon, we booked the caterer, rented the tent, chairs, etc, picked out the flowers, bought other flowers, and started planning the party favors. Whew! July here we come.

I'm exhausted just writing that. More updates later.

Thanks everyone for your prayers and thoughts!
