|| Details ||

Today, was productive!

My mom and I got a good amount of work done for the wedding and I have to admit I'm finally starting to enjoy the process. But I guess now that we get to take care of more of the details, it is more up my ally.

Also, I get to see Travis tomorrow, there are many reasons it's been a happy Monday!

|| 29 Days ||

As I'm finally taking a moment to reflect on our engagement, my head and my heart feel peace.

Travis and I have had, I guess, a speedy relationship. Part of that though, was a prayer of mine being answered. I asked God that He would make the man I was meant to marry, obvious and truly in love with Him.

And that, it has been!

The moment Travis sat next to me, when we both knew we had feelings for each other, I had an overwhelming sense of peace. Before we even got a chance to go on our first date, I knew this man would treasure me as well as invite Jesus into our conversations and decisions. I could see myself doing life with him.

I don't always have peace but when I do, it's a sigh of relief knowing that Jesus is in this with me. It's a break from worries and a reminder that I can be content and joyful in choosing a man who will choose to care for me as I'm learning to do the same for him.

Being engaged to Travis I have learned that he's hilarious, he makes me laugh like crazy.  He's wise and really determined. He's full of good ideas, brave and encouraging. My favorite thing about him though is that he loves reading the word. It's challenged me in many ways and I hope to always kindle his passion for learning more about Jesus. 

So, with only 29 days to go before we make it official, I'm beyond happy with God's gift, my “yes”, my Travis!
