Well tonight concluded our, me and my sister, week at VBS as the three and four year old teachers. It is definitely bittersweet. I am exhausted yet feel so fullfilled and uplifted in God. These kids have been amazing and kept me on my toes. Of course there is never a dull moment with one three or four year old, but 15 three and four years old...well you can understand how exciting my week has been. No matter how frustrated I became or stressed out I got seeing the kids faces and seeing and being told how much they are enjoying VBS truly made me feel like I was meant to be teaching these kids this week. They all learned from us as much as we learned from them, even if they are only 3 and 4. I learned to laugh and love everything around me. Appreciate having the opportunity to go to church freely and worship an amazing God. I learned not to sweat the small stuff because honestly in the end, it doesn't matter. All that matters was that the kids had a blast and they wanted to be there to learn and to be with us. Here are a few more pictures of our amazing week learning more about our God with the most amazing kids ever!
Tomorrow I go to pick up my wedding dress!! I am SOOO excited! I can not believe it is actually happening. Tomorrow night there will be MY wedding dress hanging in my house. I know the wedding is still 5 months away but I am having my bridal pictures taken while it is still warm outside. I would not do well trying to take pictures with my teeth chattering the entire time. It just makes the wedding seem even more real and like it is actually getting closer. It still feels like it will never get here. I can not wait to marry Chris and start our lives together as husband and wife. We have been together for almost 7 years now and I know he is the perfect man for me. He is going to be an amazing husband and I am the luckiest girl in the world to be blessed with a man who loves me for me, even all my flaws. He is a Christian, believes in God and basing our relationship on a Godly foundation. I am truly blessed to have him in my life.
Saturday my family and I leave for vacation. My mom, dad, sister, grandmother and my moms step-dad are all going to Orange Beach. We also have found out a hurricane is suppose to hit there tomorrow night so everyone please pray for a safe trip and clear weather. It is going to be so much fun. We have not took a family vacation since I was in the 10th grade. It is not only our first vacation in a long time but our last as me still an Auten. From now on we will be taking family vacations with my future husband coming along as well as me being a Hughes. This vacation is going to a great time to spent with my family and a great time to be with my sister. My sister is my best friend in the whole world and my biggest fear about getting married is losing her. We do everything together now and I am so use to constantly being around her. I know she loves Chris as Chris loves her but of course once we get married it will be different. We will be in two separate houses with two different lives. I know we will continue to have a great relationship with one another we will just have to work a little harder to keep it going.
