JOTOS.... Simply Saturday

Good morning everyone!!

I am sitting here relaxing with my yummy cup of coffee (cafe vanilla with Cinnabon creamer)... It is so good! With everything that's been going on recently, relaxing is nice!

Tomorrow is my 1 year wedding anniversary and I can't believe it. One year ago today I was the biggest Bridezilla. I tried not to be, but I was. It seemed like everything was going wrong and I felt totally out of control.
The closer it got to my wedding the more I freaked out. Then, my Mom told me to chill out and it would all be fine. I don't know how that worked but it did! I calmed down and enjoyed the rest of the day and then my wedding day.

Today, we are going to go to Downtown San Antonio and walk around the River Walk. Then we're going to dinner. I can't wait!!

Before I go, I heard a song yesterday on the radio, I'm not sure of the title, but I'm pretty sure Israel Houghton (sp?) sings it. Anyway, the words are Oh, Jesus, Oh, Jesus... Your presence is Heaven to me! I heard that and thought, that's exactly how I feel! His presence is so amazing and it definitely feels like heaven to me. I turned it up and sang along the whole way to work. If you haven't heard it, look it up. It's an awesome song!

Have a great weekend!!!

JOTOS.... Man! It's Monday.

Today is definitely a Monday...

Both Noah and I got little to no sleep last nigh due to both of us being in horrible pain. Mine was because of PCOS, his was his stomach. He claimed to be having sympathy pains for me... um pretty sure he would be crying if he was having sympathy pains! I nearly went to the ER yesterday afternoon due to how bad I was hurting. Thankfully, the ibuprofen kicked in right on time.

This morning Grandma had her head shaved. Her hair was already falling out so badly and she wanted it shorter so it wouldn't be such a hassle. She is still so very beautiful. I sat with her this morning as she ate her breakfast and just watched, and listened to her talk. She is such a remarkable and inspiring person. I want to be just like her when I "grow up".

Yesterday we had the most amazing church service. In the prayer room before church ever even started we had a young man get the Holy Ghost! We were shouting, dancing, singing, and praising so much that you could hear it in the Sanctuary. Church started 15 minutes late because we were still praying! Then came the praise & worship and the Choir. All of it was so awesome! We (the choir) sang, Jesus At the Center, combined with, Lead Me Lord. The power of God fell so strongly in the house that we sang for 20 minutes before the preaching began. I'm still in awe...

This coming Sunday marks 1 year that I have been married to Noah. Time really has flown by. A year ago this week I was definitely a "Bridezilla"! Go ahead, ask my bridesmaids and my family. It was pretty bad. Thankfully, everyone still loved me through it and no harm was done! :)
Here are a few pictures from the big day!

My brother did such an awesome job making this sign!

Love of my life.

I had the BEST bridesmaids EVER!

The wind was so bad that day.

He makes me smile so much:)

 

I love my little family!! I am so blessed.

 

Before I go, please make sure to pray for our nation! We need God's favor in this election. If you have not voted yet, PLEASE, GO VOTE!!!

 

Have a blessed Monday!
