Our Wedding Music
Wanted to share of the wedding music with y'all...
I walked down the aisle with my dad to: "Here I am to worship" in violin
(this is one of the first songs Chester heard me play on the guitar)
Our recessional as husband and wife was to: "Somewhere over the rainbow/what a wonderful world"
(perfect... and featured in the happy ending of some of our favorite movies...)
Our first dance as the Branches was to: "All my Life"
Chorus goes : "All my life, I prayed for someone like you, and I thank God that I finally found you..." It felt like I got to thank God for bringing Chester into my life :)
Our last dance at the wedding was to one of our favorite love songs:
"Let's Stay Together"... the words are almost like vows: "Loving you whether times are good or bad, happy or sad"
:)

Amigas
God has really blessed me with some amazing friends.
From near and far, they continue to be such gifts to me.
This past Easter weekend, my "originally from Brownsville,
and what I can only describe as homey Mexicaness :)

(which they encouraged us to start in the first place)
and their mom's even sent us gifts :) & apparently they think we still need to add to it... mom's are great!
It seemed to all be kitched themed and my roommate was also there to chime in with the "joy of cooking" ...
We all went to easter service the next day
and were challenged to live life to the full...
It was wonderful to spend Resurrection Sunday with loved ones...
they wanted a tour of Regent.
It was a special hunt for Chester and I!
What can I say?

More in Love
It was 4 days of sitting under the Father's Blessing and just learning to let everything go and let God come to us in greater measure.
I feel so full! and so hopeful for our future together...
When you are in God's presence worries fly away
You finally get persepective when you find yourselves in His loving hands
It's easier to forgive and give grace because you are so aware of how he has forgiven you and given you grace...
and this week has again confirmed how good it is for Chester and I to be together.
It was wonderful to be by his side as God spoke to us both individually and corporately...
It's a dream come true to have a fiancee that loves God with his all... and understands God's awesome heart as Father... we had such a blast together @ this conference :) (along with one of our very best friends too I might add)
Our relationship is about so much more than us... it is about God in us...
"I am the vine, you are the branches;
We are meant to be like Him, to be a reflection of His life and love...
This past week was a wonderful time of abiding in God's love... I pray that the fruit of it would be with us for many years to come :)
Yay God!
The more we fall in love with him, the more we fall in love with each other! :)

Wedding Verse
"Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him to help you do it, and he will."
(Psalm 37:5)
I feel like this is definitely what I need to be doing about the wedding (and certainly the marriage).
I'm so glad that it's not just up to Chester and I... we can rely on God to help keep us together and on our family & friends to help us along the way...
Details keep falling into place and God is faithful...
and what truly matters is that at the end of the day I get to spend the rest of my life with my best friend :)
