Pictures

I have pictures! We stopped by our new apartment yesterday to get some more paper work filled out and we took some pictures to share with you all! We have been packing like crazy the past couple of days. My room is almost done, but there is still a lot of work to be done at Carson's place. It's amazing to think that the next time I open these boxes I will be married!

So here is our cute little mail pickup area. Carson and I have already talked about how fun it will be to take a walk together to get the mail everyday when we both get home from work.


And here is our apartment!!!




Carson and I have been reminiscing a lot in the past few days as we finish up finals and wrap up our time at Clemson and saying good-bye to friends. It's easy to not be sad since we are coming back, but we were thinking about how hard this would be if we were leaving for good. I'm not looking forward to that day, but it's still a few years off!

Well the wedding is so close! Both of our families are headed up next week for graduation on Thursday, December 18th, and then it will be one month until the wedding. Things will be crazy when we get home with Christmas just a few days away, but then it will be wedding planning galore!!

It's official!!

So my day today started off pretty well because I finished two finals yesterday so I actually had time to pack and do some wedding things this morning, and then I went and picked up my cap and gown for graduation.. I know.. how could it get any better then this?? but just wait...


Oh maybe I'll let the anticipation build....



Really gloomy weather here today, but it's a bit warmer so I'm not complaining...



Ok, so back to the exciting news. . . . I got a phone call from our apartment complex and we now officially have an address!! I know, I probably built that up a little more than I should have because I know that you probably are not as excited as I am, but I already have it memorized and it is my first official, non-university address, so it's exciting for Carson and me. I'm not going to post it for all of blogger world to see, but you can find it at our website in January when we move in.

Carson is taking a final at this moment, and then we will both only have one final standing between us and graduation! I'll post pictures next week of the special event.

Almost there!

Wow! Time is flying and graduation and the wedding are quickly approaching. Today and tomorrow I have all of my last classes. I was sitting in class on Monday, thinking about how I felt about that. I realized that I wasn't sad at all. I am very ready to move on to my next phase in life. I believe God has called me to be a wife and a mom so I am so excited that the first of those is coming true in only 46 days. I am excited about all of the new things God is going to teach me about Him, myself, and my marriage. I am still trying to make the most out of my last time here. It is so wonderful just to walk around this beautiful campus. I would say I'm going to miss that, but we'll only be living 5 minuets away so I can come and walk around whenever I want but not have the pressures of school. It's the perfect combination.
I am anxious to get home and finish up all of the wedding stuff. 4 day long breaks for Thanksgiving don't make for very productive wedding plans. So when I go home for Christmas I'll have an entire month to get things wrapped up! Everyone says not to wish for it to come too soon because soon it will be all over. My response it that the day is the beginning of my marriage which I am most excited about and will last longer than any one event!
