Riding Horses

An important thing to do while in Texas: ride a horse. 

Some of our friends that we worship with (their two little girls are some of my "little friends" and will be junior bridesmaids in our wedding) own and board horses.  So, we made a deal--let us babysit your kids so yall can go on a date and in return let us ride your horses. 

It was wonderful.  We loved the horse riding and the babysitting too. :)  Lawrance had difficulty getting on the hose, and I had trouble getting off.  Needless to say there was lots of laughter going on all night.

Fun times, riding horses. I still haven't done that as an adult. The bug on the tongue about made me ill. . . good thing to know it's plastic. LOL

Horses! Yes! I love them - and so do my girls. They started riding in April - and I followed their example in June. Horseback riding every Monday :) And in a couple of weeks we'll go and try "western riding" - a bit like the cowboys do! Lot of laughter happens also when I'm riding. And to me too the worst part is trying to get off of the horse :D

Oh and the puppy - it's one of my very favourite breeds! He's so cute...

You're counting the days already... The Big Day comes VERY soon! Exciting!

signing my name Every time I've signed my name in the last two or three days I catch myself thinking "is the going to be the last time I sign it like this?" I cannot believe we are down to the last week. . . . wow. just wow.

here we go . . . I can't thank my mother enough for helping us to have our wedding at an inn that is handling nearly everything for us!! Our stress has been minimal in regards to wedding planning even though we only had three months to plan our wedding. And, one of those months we were still in Taiwan and one of those months we were busy spending time with each other, sightseeing, and meeting with family. Also, our pre-marital counselor (a missionary in Taiwan) gave us a golden piece of advice. He told Lawrance to give me one specific set time each week to talk about wedding stuff with him, the rest of the time we were to work on continuing to build our relationship and prepare for marriage. We weren't supposed to discuss wedding stuff 24/7. It was golden advice. It was great for me, and, I think, it was good for him too. So, I thought I'd share with you just exactly what our current mental states are: You'd be amazed (well then again, if you know us IRL, maybe you wouldn't) at how many people have told us how loud our house is going to be--a place of fun and laughter and just sheer joy!! Of course, we hope we also have done the same thing with the wedding. We hope it is a fun, fun, time of joy and laughter . . . and an opportunity to glorify God because He is our everything, the reason for all the fun and laughter we share. Our wedding is in two days . . . here we go!! "Yes, the Lord has done amazing things for us! What joy!" (Psalm 126:3 NLT)
