Formerly JoyMatt & a hello again :)

joyfulbride424

Hi all, I've missed chatting on the Christian board! I'm not sure I feel like typing out the whole story again, so if you're super interested in the drama, feel free to go over to the June 2011 board. There was some drama related to my wedding plans and some friends who I no longer consider friends.. long story short I deactivated my account out of the pure fact that I didn't want to think about the wedding. But I'm back... and it's nice to see everyone! And I love how this board is moving more than it was back when I stopped posting and congrats Joesgirl on being mod!!!

Hey! I was wondering where you went! Glad to have you back. Sorry about whatever happened, but remember you wedding is about you and your husband. I will say a prayer that you will feel at peace with whatever happened. When is the wedding, btw?

Oh wow, you're back!  Yeah, I was wondering what happened to you too!  I try to stay out of the knot drama as much as I can but I do find myself reading it from time to time.  Ah, women, how dramatic we can be... :-) 

Glad you're back!!!!

 <div>Yep!  FI got the job and moved out there last week.  We looked at apartments while we were out there in January and ended up getting one of those.  Cost of living is ridiculously lower than what either of us are used to and God has just been opening door after door and showing us just how He provides.  It's been awesome to see.  </div><div>
</div><div>I mentioned it earlier, but we found out while we were out there that FI will be leading the youth mission trip...to Haiti...May 30-June 8th.  Wedding is June 11th.  We are praying soooo hard that no one gets sick...or kidnapped...and that all flights back are right on time.  I wasn't worried about this at all until my mom about blew a gasket when we told her about it.  </div><div>
</div><div>She's not handling any of it well at all.  I can talk about "the move" I just can't say the "K-word."  Gonna be a fun 4 months. :)

I will definitely keep you in prayers - especially during that time during that trip! I hope things go well and God provides a blanket of protection over him.
