Married. I am married. I am a Mrs. I wake up every morning in awe and wonder at this life I am living. I treasure this man that I call my husband more then I ever knew possible. Chuck helps me to see the light. He helps me see the glass half full. He helps me to be positive, no matter the circumstances. He works hard and always with a smile on his face. Our newly wed life is fabulous!…
We are THANKING God today! Chuck was officially offered a position with IBM today! Praise the LORD!!! =) And YES, he accepted the position! WHOO HOOOOOO!!!! THANKS for praying!
I woke up this morning in a haze but when I came to, I realized, “Next week at this time I will be a married woman!” Of course I called Chuck right away! I’m just so happy. It’s the most incredible feeling on the planet to be The Bride. I went to Heritage this morning and felt like a movie star. People were coming up to me saying, “Uh…big event this week, huh?” Or, “Some one’s getting married soon!” or…
I’ve been catching up with some friends lately, and have realized that there are questions out there that are dying to be answered! Thought I’d take a minute to share some of what is going on with Chuck and I. Most importantly, we are getting married in 16 days! Oh my goodness! If you have not RSVP’d yet, or for some reason did not see our invitation yet, check out: www.charlesandabigail.com ASAP! Here’s the scoop y’all! Chuck has a passion…
5 years and 3 months. FIVE YEARS!!! I can hardly believe that’s how long I worked for Starbucks! It just blows my mind. Good ‘ol Dickson City, the not-so-good MOA 1, my beloved MOA 2, and now Chantilly Crossings! From Barista to Shift Supervisor to Coffee Master to completing my Assistant Manager Training and back down to Barista in the end! There is so much on my mind. I’m having a hard time putting my thoughts together. I haven’t even…
There is hardly an inch free on my bedroom floor. I certainly can not even reach my closet without tripping over boxes of ribbon, tull, bows, invitations, or honeymoon clothes. I look around my room and there is evidence of an upcoming wedding everywhere! It’s the best feeling on the planet. I have never been this happy in my entire life! Sure, there’s the absolute excitement that comes from the fact that our wedding is in 50 days, but more…
Happy Birthday Chail! Chail turned ONE on Saturday! I’ve been thinking about the first year of his life and all the ways that God has used him in mine. I’ll never forget the first time I met him. He was the tiniest little thing. He had on tiny overalls, Trisha was feeding him, handed him to me, and I got the biggest tears in my eyes. Then Chail threw up on me. =) That day changed my life forever. It’s…
I’ve been accused of dragging out our engagement story to try to rope people in, which is a great idea, but really that’s not my intention! In actuality, I am always nervous to post a blog that is too long because I find that readers lose interest! And because our story is so long, I didn’t want to post the whole story at once! The story is incredibly sacred to me and I never want to cheapen it. I already…
Last night Chuck and I rented a movie. It was my turn to pick (even though we typically like the same movies anyway!) so I chose the most recent N. Sparks movie. Chuck was out like a light after about 5 minutes (still jet laggin’ from his trip to Germany) so I essentially watched the whole movie by myself. I am totally not a movie-crier. My heart turns to stone for some reason when I watch movies! Last night was…
Warning: The story you are about to read changed my life FOREVER. It might just change yours, too. It was 5:00 on Friday night, February 27. Date night had finally arrived! It is always, without a doubt, the highlight of my entire week. Chuck arrived and I bustled down the stairs ready to bust out of the house for our special date. I went to put on my jacket and he informed me to wait. Confusion began to formulate. He…
