happy happy april

:)

hello april. you are my happy month. you hold my little wedding day. my stress. my anxiousness. my lack of patience. and my moving forward with purchasing a condo. (we signed a contract just yesterday and I turned in the paperwork earlier today.
happy april fools day.)
i hope the bank isn't playing any tricks on us :(
because the condo we signed a contract for isn't even for the one I got all excited about in the previous post. nope. the bank backed out on that one. :( and we got all sad. and now we don't easily believe everything the bank says. boo.

but hey, everything is in His hands.
:)
awesome.

so as of late... I've been putting together pinstripe kraft boxes for my cupcakes. with cute little doilies inside :) My mom is making delicious favors for my little wedding. chocolate covered oreo cookies. awwwwwwww yyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaah!

we are going to gain weight and be happy.
yes yes.

i have not made any art. my brain is fried. my thoughts are all over the wedding right now. 24 days to go. and we are happy.

Handsome and I had our first bridal shower this past Saturday. I wore my cute yellow anthro dress. *sweet*
and we got lots of lovely gifts. I mean hello, you can never go wrong with gift cards!!! yay!

So transition...it's all about change and i'm ready but not really. you know? like, sure. yep. I'm getting married. dude. I'm ready to start my married life to the wonderful and amazing Mr. Handsome. We clearly know what we are getting into. After dating for over 4.5 years and being each other's first boy/girl friend. perfect. we've had out ups and downs. the reality is. he loves me. dangit. and i kinda like the guy ;P

but no art at the moment. just putting boxes together. and countless to-do lists.

praying. waiting. worrying. anticipating. and i know I will forget something. like forget to pack! ha.
watch that really happen.
bummer,
so anyway. here's something I did for last weeks creative therapy.
It's all about learning faith. i feel like i am just a baby in so many levels when it comes to growing my faith. living it is a challenge on the daily. and I am learning to strive to grow it moment by moment. little bits at a time. perfect? never. but every little bit helps.

learn faith

ps: i trimmed my hair :) and i kinda like it. and my veil is coming in this week. from australia and from etsy :) double love.
AND it has scalloped edging. ack! srsly.
!!!!!
geez i can't wait.
