And it continues....

Life definitely went crazy this past weekend. Tim came in Thursday night so he could attend Nathan's (Josh and Taylor's baby mentioned last post) visitation and funeral.

All day Friday we ran around getting wedding stuff done. When the evening came, we went to the visitation. It was so beautiful! Nathan's short life was showcased in the most wonderful way. It was very difficultto be there, but I had my Tim. It is so amazing to have a man of God that is willing to hold me and comfort me in my times of sadness. Those are the moments I cherish the most. Saturday was the funeral and it was the sweetest ceremony. Dr. Greg Deering did the service and reminded us of the perfect place Nathan is now. Jeff, Sarah, and I did a song and it was difficult, but I felt so blessed to be a part of it. Again, Tim was by my side holding me and wiping my tears. Truly Mr. Wonderful.

Later that day, my parents, Tim and I frantically loaded all our furniture and things into three cars and set out to Marshall. We got all our stuff moved into the apartment! We called it a night and played guitar hero with my brother. Sunday, we bought a bed!!! We couldn't get into the apartment until 3 so I was there until 12am unpacking and trying to get things situated so we could come home to our place.

It's so crazy to think that we have our own home. We don't live there yet, but it is waiting for us. In 12 days, I will be Mrs. Jennifer Darst. Woah. I am so excited to have a place called home with the man that I adore. These past months have definitely proven themselves difficult as we have been long distance AGAIN, but it is going to be so worth it. It was so sad to leave Tim again. I won't see him for 9 days (which by then it will be 2 days until the wedding!). I have had to replay in my mind over and over, this is the last time I have to leave him. I am ready to be done with the whole dating thing...I am ready to start life with him.

These next two weeks are going to be a challange, but I think I'm up for it.

Please continue to pray for Josh and Taylor!
