3 Weeks Away!

First just to make you laugh, here is a video of Katelyn and Anna with their hair braided together that we ran across last night:  (This has over 2.9 K views- so funny!)  And then we also found this one (watch it through the end-- especially of Jake-- I promise it will be a highlight of your day)  This has over 6,000 views. 😂 And here's the song all on its own:  and a prayer below inspired by this song:  A Wedding Prayer Inspired by "What a Wonderful World" Gracious and Loving God, We pause in gratitude for Katelyn and Phillip whose hearts have chosen each other in the midst of this wide and wonderful world. We thank You for green trees and red roses— for the vibrant beauty that surrounds us, just as the beauty of their love blooms and flourishes before our eyes. May their marriage be like the skies of blue and clouds of white— clear in purpose, gentle in spirit, and full of hope even when storms roll in. As they walk hand in hand, may they alw...

It’s introducing them to your colleagues at a work event and basking in pride as they make people laugh and make you look lovable just by dint of being loved by them. It’s laughing until you wheeze. It’s waking up in a country neither of you have been in before. It’s skinny-dipping at dawn. It’s walking along the street together on a Saturday night and feeling an entire city is yours. It’s a big, beautiful, ebullient force of nature. I also know that love is a pretty quiet thing. It’s lying on the sofa together drinking coffee, talking about where you’re going to go that morning to drink more coffee. It’s folding down pages of books ...
