Adah and I had stayed up late Thursday night to get these put together and on. It was a lot of fun spending the time with her. I'm so glad she was able to come and help.

Due to the amount of time it takes to up load pictures I could not do many today... But more are on the way! It well probably be sometime next week before I again have access to the internet. :) I hope you have enjoyed these pictures.

Hey! I do not have any pictures of the wedding yet... but I promise as soon as I get them I will share them with ya'll!

To those who have been waiting, I'm sorry it has taken me so long to do a post. Recently I have been a little on the busy side.

:) Today, I think I shall do a bit of catching up. Here are some pictures from the shower Ashley Stafford and her mother gave. (Thank you very much!)

Consie trying out the cake. :) The food was Fantastic!

Ashley Castlebury's turn drawing at game of wedding pictionary. Ashley Stafford and Shelli came up with this game.

The bottom half above is the picture Mrs. Castlebury drew. Ashley Stafford was the one who came up with this picture. She did not mean for Mrs. Castlebury to draw it. She purposely looked through to make sure she did not give it to Trevor's sister and oops she ended up giving it to his mother. Can you guess what it is???

We were given lots of very nice and some totally awesome gifts!

My Aunt Jan gave a short devotional and then my Grandmother shared some things with us.

Above is my Mom, Mrs. McGinnis, and my Mother-in-law talking with the other ladies.

I was very nervous throughout the shower but other than that, everything went wonderfully! Both Faith and Cold Spring churches also threw showers for us. (I have no pictures of them.) They were really nice and we also received many wonderful and very useful gifts.

We have been so blessed with friends and family who have really gone above and beyond to help in anyway they could. Thank you very much for everything! Without you I don't know what I would have done.

Have a wonderful day!

We are down to single digit numbers!

:) Only 9 days left till the wedding!!!

Time is really flying past.

The House :)

WOW! It has been a long time since I have posted. I'm sorry. Life has been very enjoyably busy! Well at least for the most part. :)
The wedding plans are all going well. There are still a lot of things left to do before March 28! :) It is hard to believe Trevor and I will be getting married in 19 days!
It has been forever since I showed you pictures of the house! Trevor has been working very hard on it. Week before last his boss, co-worker, and some friends told him they where coming down to help him and he needed to put together a list of things he wanted them to do. :) So he did. They installed the toilet in the bathroom, did a lot a painting, finished the railing on the porch, and I'm not sure what else. They were a lot help and I know it was real encouragement to Trevor.

Mr. Burns

:) Playing after the work was done.

Collin painting in the bathroom

This weekend Collin and Mr. Castlebury helped with more painting. :) Trevor put in the bathroom vanity and sink and some lights.

OH! Last Sunday night it snowed!!! :) It was beautiful out! Trevor and I did not have to work so later in the day I went over to his house and we went in to Abbeville and applied for a marriage license. :) It was quite the trip. (... If you call ahead and ask what you need to bring and they say your social security card number they don't mean you just need to know it. They need paper work with your number it on it.)

:) Friday Pastor Tom (the pastor of the church the Castleburys attend) came and painted three sides of the house and some trim. :) I like this color a lot better than the color of the primer. Sunday afternoon Trevor took me over and showed me what had been done. :) It just keeps looking better and better.

:) Things are moving right along. We would really appreciate your prayers for us that everything goes well and that God would be given the glory in it all. He has blessed us so much! Without Him none of this would be.

:) Mostly Wedding Stuff

With lots of help all the ivitaions are almost done! :)

Ashley Stafford spent several days helping me figure how we wanted them, getting all the supplies and stuff, :) And a late night getting most of them assembled. It was a huge help!

(Thank you Ashley!!! :) and L.D.)

:) Trevor very sweetly helped me finish putting them together one evening when he was over for dinner! Now all I have to do is the finishing touches. :)

Here are some pictures from shopping for suits with Trevor and his brothers. It is really hard to believe that that was over a month ago!!! Time is flying :)

:) Boys!

Saturday Consie and Adah went to the Castlebury's with me for their first dress fitting. :) It has been a long time since just the three of us did something together. It was a blast!!! :) Just as a general warning.... It might not be the greatest idea to put three happy sisters (who don't get to do much together due to... well life) in a very small space (my car) for and hour or so... They might become slightly goofy. :) Luckily, we made it through without to much damage done. Sisters are wonderful!!! :) Here are some pictures from our outing :) ...

:) Oh what Fun!!!

Consie had a dentist appointment about two week ago so I got to have Charity and Ryan at work with me for a little bit. They are also our flower girl and ring bearer. :)

And as far as things go around the UPS Store. We have just cut our hours back a little... :) We get to sleep in later!

Jan. 18th was Anna's 18th Birthday.

And I think that's all for now!

:) Have a Great Day!!!!!

Getting caught up. :)

We did not have a cedar tree this year!!!

It's a lot easier to decorate a tree when the branches are strong enough to hold them up!!! :)

Trevor was so very sweet and helped me wrap the lights. It would have taken me forever without him!

Benjamin came up from Texas to pay us a visit over the holiday!!! :) I can't remember the last Christmas he was here for. :) It was GREAT to get to see him for a little while... :) He is so Funny!!! When he is around there is always more laughter through out the house.

Here is a picture of all my parents Children...

From left to right you have: Lance, J.E.B., Benjamin, Consie, Sheppard, Me, and Adah.

:) The whole Family minus Consie's Family...

Back row: Consie, Sheppard, and Benjamin. Middle row: Me, Daddy, Mom, and Adah. Up front: Lance and J.E.B. :)

On Christmas Eve all the family gets together, stays up way to0 late and opens presents. :) It's wonderful getting to spend this time with each other!!! Trevor came over this year and celebrated with us.

Here we are handing out gifts.

It's a blurry picture but here is mom with the oldest grandchild Christan. :) They are all getting so big!!!

Ryan chilling in Dads chair and enjoying the back massager. :)

Benjamin and Howard (Consie's Husband).

:) Charity, the youngest of the gremlins as Shepperd fondly enjoys calling them.

Consie had a dentist appointment this morning so she dropped Charity off to hangout with me for a little bit her at work. :) It was a lot of fun having her. I think Sam enjoyed it too!

Daddy taught us how to play set back. His mom and Dad used to play it a lot.

Daddy Reading the Bible before we opened any presents Christmas Day.

The most Wonderful man in the word (... Or at least I think he is)
proposed Christmas Eve. :) We have set the date for March the 28th, 2009... which is 81 days away!!! :) We have lots and lots to do!!! :) It's been a blast!!!

Mrs. Castlebury and I went shopping for fabric this Saturday. :) It took us literally all day but, we got a lot covered. We found all the material for my dress, the flower girls dress, and the bridesmaids dresses. :) Mrs. Castlebury was a huge help... I could NEVER have done it with out her!!!

News on the house... The Sheetrock is all hung and Trevor started putting up trim this last week!!! :) On Friday we went, picked out and ordered the hard wood floors and our wedding bands. :)

We would greatly appreciate your prayers. There is lots to get done and even more decisions to be made.

:) Have a great day!!!!
