guacamole and love songs

this week has been such a whirlwind of craziness.

the greatest advice i've received so far has been to carve out some time for a date night,

and that is what bryce and i did tonight.

it was so great to spend some one-on-one time together,

to talk about the wedding and our days and our week and to just be together without craziness,

and of course,

with table side guacamole. :)

it is so easy to get wrapped up in the wedding festivities and forget about the true purpose.

a wedding is not just a party.

a wedding is about a marriage.

my heart is overwhelmed with love and gratitude to our sweet Savior for allowing us to share in his beautiful gift of marriage. 

i know that i am so blessed to be able to marry my bestest friend,

it just makes me all gooey and melty on the inside.

have you heard of JJ Heller?

JJ Heller sings many lovely songs, and one of them, the "Boat Song" is my favorite new love song.

i think it is a beautiful picture of how the Lord brings two people together to compliment each other and to support each other, and of how the Lord, in his beautiful sovereignty can bring two sinners together in marriage to glorify his name and to bring glory to his kingdom.

i hope this songs brings you a small bit of joy to your heart.
