…back to your regularly scheduled programming…


I've been a bad blogger. I know. I'd apologize, but I'm pretty sure there hasn't been any major uproar. Life has been crazy. So so crazy. But the good kind. I've been busy marrying off all of my friends. This Saturday my best friend and MOH says her I-do's. I'm so happy for her. Once we get through EV's Wedding Madness 2009, I can focus once again on my very own Wedding Madness 2010. (She and I have a habit of dating things. Sounds official.) I promise to do a recap of her big day here on the blog so everyone can enjoy the wonderfulness. In the meantime, I have a growing list of things to write about, to include:
  •     Choosing our ceremony site
  •     Purchasing my dress
  •     DG's fantastical ideas for our reception
  •     Color, aesthetics, and other pretty things
  •     Bridal party attire
  •     And oh-so-much more…
For now, I leave you with the lyrics to the little ditty I wrote for EV's ceremony, which I'll be singing during the lighting of the unity candle. Maybe someday I'll get a mini custom wedding song business going. People like that sort of thing, right? This one is sort of a prayer for the couple, who are so very dear to my heart…


We're gathered here, hearts overflowing, to witness Your grace raining down
Joining hands, Love of a lifetime, One and only found
Love like this comes only from above
So Father, we are here to lift You up and pray

Fill them up with joy and laughter
Let their hearts be true to You
Give them hope in times of darkness
Bless these. We are on our knees saying
Fill this house, fill this house, fill this house with love

Boy meets girl, same old story, but we know there's more left unseen
Love of God in the eyes of another, Mercy's hands and feet
Love like this comes only from above
So Father, we are here to lift You up and pray

Fill them up with joy and laughter
Let their hearts be true to You
Give them hope in times of darkness
Bless these. We are on our knees saying
Fill this house

Forge ties that bind, unbroken
Give them strength to speak the truth
May peace be always spoken
Unite their souls in You
May their love shine like the light on darkest days

Fill them up with joy and laughter
Let their hearts be true to You
Give them hope in times of darkness
Bless these. We are on our knees saying
Fill this house, fill this house, fill this house with love
