Catch Up

Only FOUR days of my undergraduate college days left!

As a freshman coming in you always hear people say that four years in college will go by so fast...well they weren't kidding! It is unreal how fast time has gone by! It doesn't seem that long ago that we were first engaged and we had 10 months until our wedding. Now, we are sitting here two months from our wedding day and about to move all our stuff to Arkansas next week!!

Reception Drama

In case you haven't heard our wedding reception is no longer at the Gathering Place, excuse me, Joe Taco. It is now at the Homewood Suites. I haven't seen the place but it's brand new and as far as I can tell from pictures on the Internet it should be great. Of course it's going t be fun....we totally bring the party where ever we go :).

One Fun Party

I had my first shower....it was a blast. I have some of the best friends in the world. They are pretty much wonderful. I don't really consider myself a shy person but I was pretty embarrassed about opening up "personal" presents in front of all those people. Here are a few pictures from the night. I'm very sad that I didn't get a picture of my cake....it was shaped like a certain body part of a male. hehe.

My Beautiful Brides maids minus two very important people...they are 300 to 500 miles away.

Friends.

My Cup had a special surprise inside!!

New Stuff

My dad is bringing up our furniture next Friday!! It is going to be a crazy crazy week with moving out of my apartment and into our duplex, graduation, and A LOT of family coming in.

Crazy, fun, stressful, and exciting!

God is good.

Matt and I both have interviews within the next two weeks! That's exciting!

It is 60 days, 16 hours, 41 minutes and 17 seconds until Saturday, June 30, 2007 at 7:00:00

Sometimes the most urgent and vital thing you can possibly do is take a complete REST!


67days!

Cruise Info!

Back in February, I booked probably the most exciting vacation ever. Not only do I get to spend a week with Tiffany, we get to do all kinds of cool cruise things. I was slightly down today (no worries, there wasn't a real reason, just one of those days) so I went and booked an excursion for us on the Island of St. Thomas.

This unique Caribbean sailing / snorkeling adventure begins with an unforgettable sail onboard a modern sailing yacht to nearby Buck Island Wildlife Reserve and some of the best snorkeling that St. Thomas has to offer. At "Buck Island" you will have the opportunity to sun swim and snorkel or feed the tropical fish with our yacht at anchor. In addition to viewing coral and the tropical fish you can snorkel above the 190' long shipwreck of the "Cartanza Sr." In clear view 40' below water conditions allowing. Snorkeling equipment beer sodas and snacks are complimentary onboard.

I would like to call your attention to a few items; First, Snorkeling in a shipwreck, very cool, Second, Look at the last line: COMPLIMENTARY BEER! WHOOP!!!

DETAILS of our FIRST home!!!!

It is official. We have a place to live! Matt needs to sign the lease when he comes up in May or when he comes up for a job interview (lets cross our fingers). The townhouse complex is called Parker Place.









Just incase you guys would like to send us mail.

Williams
508 Cross
Apartment 3
Searcy, AR 72149

It is in a quite neighborhood half a block from campus. It has two bedrooms and a bathroom up stairs and down stairs is the kitchen, living room, laundry room, and a half bathroom. I think this place fits us well…really simple.

They have some stuff to do to the apartment before we move. They needed to clean the carpet (they did that today), paint one of the rooms, and fix part of the floor in the entry way. The sweet old man told me that he would have it all finished by May 11. That is the day we can move some of our stuff in even though we are not officially moving in until June 8.

This is me telling Matt about our new place!

Things are going really good. I got all my grad school classes settled out today. I am so nervous but I will have a really smart husband to help me out!

I get to see my fiancée day after TOMORROW!!!

It is 79 days, 19 hours, 11 minutes and 54 seconds until Saturday, June 30, 2007 at 7:30:00 .

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us. Eph. 3:20.

Our Home

Well, we think we have found a place to live in Searcy. It is a 2 bedroom duplex that is apparently very "cute." This "sweet old man" is the land lord and he is going to let us move in as well as start paying rent in June, which is a big plus for us. So now that we have a place to live, only the whole no job thing is the only stress in our lives. Wish us luck with this.
Tiffany is coming into town, along with my parents for ring and parents weekend. I can't wait to see her.
On a different note, I will be giving my testamony to my bible study on Wednesday. Pray for me that I know exactly what to say, and that God will speak through me to help those that are struggling.
Buen Suerte,
Matt

Registering FUN!

Matt: Tiffany, Tell me what my favorite hockey team is.
Me: I didn’t think you liked hockey.
Matt: That’s right. I don’t. Now, ask me which bed spread is my favorite.
Me: Ok, I get the point.



Without a doubt, spending a couple of hours in Bed Bath and Beyond picking out bedding is not one of Matt’s favorite things to do. He did get to use the gun…that made him happy.




He also wanted to pick out a few decorations for our new home (wherever that may be).

Needless to say we didn’t exactly have the same taste.

We did take time out of our busy wedding planning week to watch the Aggies beat Louisville.

86 days, 22 hours, 25 minutes, 56 seconds until the BIG DAY!!!

Three days until the Weekend!!

God is so good.

Setup

This is the preliminary post of this wonderful blog. We will be posting many more of these in the future along with pictures and anecdotes to match. After the wedding, we will post about our lives in Arkansas.
