One week, just one more week until Luke and I get the keys to our new condo. This is something that I have been waiting for, for a long time. Of course planning a wedding is fun and nice, but how much more fun is planning something so permanent such as the place were Luke and I will live. We'll live there, together! (after the wedding of course) I must admit that my wedding has been sadly neglected this week as preparing for my new home has taken over all my thoughts and time. Today Luke and I are picking up our bed, two dressers, two nightstands and mirror that we purchased last week. Yesterday we bought our couch and loveseat. A few days ago I couldn't resist buying some decorations that were really a good deal at of course, "Deals Only". All week we have been looking at paint colors and deciding what would go best with our furniture. Luke is letting me choose the color for our bedroom and he is choosing the color for the living room.
God has been good to us in that He was provided for us every step of the way. Somehow Luke and I were able to stay right on budget or under budget with everything we needed for our condo and the condo itself. Last week when we were picking out our bedroom set Luke saw that the price was to high. He simply told the salesman that we had a strict budget and what it was. Without even a second of hesitation the man said "Done!" Also, Luke's job has changed from part time to full time. To see God's hand in all of this has truly been a blessing. I feel so undeserving, but I'm realizing that God really truly does love to bless his children!
