4 / 19 / 10

ok so I know it's been a while! Life just gets too busy sometimes for me to blog when I want to.
Well first off I joined a gym! I'm now going to the YMCA by my house about 3 times a week and I love it. It's crazy to think I was using my crutches when I started and now I walk in even without my cane! This cute little old man came up to me last week when I went to the gym the first time without my cane and he said " I see you're here without your little friend!" He was so cute and I guess he had been watching me before when I was using my cane! It made me laugh :-)

I got o see my Dr. in about 2 weeks so I hope he's pleased with how strong I'm getting. I did try to do some lunges today with a trainer but it hurt a lot. He gave me some tips how to work up to them so I'll be trying some new workouts but it's hard in a way not to be able to do everything I could do before the surgery. But I gues now it's a waiting game until I'm healed all the way through my body. I feel a lot stronger in my legs and I have even lost like 4 pounds! I don't want to lose too much or else I will have to alter my wedding dress.. which leads me to say I now have my dress!! My sisters and I went the other night to pick out bridesmaids dresses and I asked if it was it because it had been about 11 weeks since I ordered it and she said it was in the back! I tried it on and it was a perfect fit! We have a little altering to do on the strap but it's an easy fix we can do at home. It's hanging in my room right now and I want tot ry it on all the time but I know I have to wait. Haha!

Wedding planning is coming along ok. Jacob and I went the other week to figure out the dance floor and DJ stuff because the guy doing the music has a massive set up and we had to make sure it would fit in the ballroom! ;-) We have a lot to do still but it's nice that jacob is almost done with his MBA program so that's one less thing he has to worry about this summer. We have an awesome photographer too and I can't wait to have our engagement photos taken, but that will be sometime in June. Also the pastor we have is a long time friend of my family and he told me over the years " Shelly when you get married I want to be the one to preform the ceremony" and now he is and it's a wonderful gift! Godhas been very good through the process already and I'm happy to see how He will work in the months to come.

Over all things are going alright. I have made some spirtiual changes in my life and I'm putting my full faith in the LORD that He is looking out for me and everything in my life is for Him and Him alone. He has a plan for my life and I need to let Him show me what that is. Not try to make up some new plans but fully trust in Him and lean compleatly on Him.

Ok well I'm taking a step of faith today and doing something that might change my life and I'll update in the weeks to come and let you know how it is going. Prayers would be much appreciated. Thank you.
