April 7th, i had the opportunity to travel home for just about 24ish hours for one special day. the day that my lovely family and close friends from home hosted a lovely bridal shower for your truly:) it was one of the loveliest sites. CC and Dorth could not have put together a more lovely event with help from moms and other sweet, sweet ladies:) there were photo frames, and birds, and bird nests, and tea, and food, and it was just the most delightful event!
they captured my personality to so well in that day and i felt so privileged and honored to have received so much love. it was absolutely too short of a stay but it was so wonderful. i was able to see so many friends and my family. getting to see everyone made me miss home so much, i can't lie, so i tried to suck up every moment i was there. it was interesting because it snowed in yucaipa that night when i arrived so i didn't pack for it BUT it was still perfect. AND I met the amazing gal who is going to make one beautiful day out of our wedding with her flower magic:) she's so cute and sweet, and she loves the Lord, AND she is a brilliant florist! her name is Diana. click her name to get a glimpse:) just to add to the goodness, zack and i have the sweetest friend capturing our special day which makes it just that much better!!!! oh my gosh to think that it is 28 days away and that we are being blessed with so much goodness through Diana and Erica is bewildering to me but i take it with open arms:) so that was my 24ish hours home for such a lovely day!
