Looking good so far!

Fri Mar 25
Mostly sunny
High: 51F
RealFeel®: 55F
Winds: ENE 6 mph
Gusts: 21 mph

One of the things we cannot control. Keeping an eye out.....looking good so far!

Why am I thinking about this at 5 am?
I don't know.
I just can't sleep. I'm congested and very tired but I just lie here.
Food is definately on my mind. Plus wedding stuff.
Sleep would be lovely, we have church in tne morning!

Panic!


So I'm trying not to freak out....
Buuuuut....
We still don't have a photographer.
seriously!!!
I feel like throwing up.
Lindsay, who did our engagement photos, is due to have a baby that next week and cannot do it. I am trying to not go to her, begging and pleading, crying.....please just do it for an hour or two. I trust her. I have seen her work and would be perfectly happy. (sigh)
But that's okay.
I have tried Sarah Fletcher, in DC. No luck. She is moving to London in 6 months and isn't doing any 2011 weddings. What? really? It cant be that hard.....Guess it is.
I have emailed 5 other photographers, no luck yet. One was about a week after we got engaged and she never even responded. rude. The others, I tried to contact just today, so I understand that.
I feel like I dropped the ball.
My Bad.
What am I going to do??
I pray a door will open somewhere. I pray it is also an inexpensive door. I pray that it can make me happy.
That would suck to not have good photos of this day. Or no photos.. . . ok, we would have some, but still. This is just one of the most important days of our lives.

We have waited and prepared for this day for a long time. A temple sealing has so much meaning and purpose. It is a very important part of Heavenly Father's plan for us. With it, our family can be together forever. With it, our children can also be sealed to us forever. Death doesn't need to be the end to our cherished relationships. Our marriage won't be "until death do us part," it will be eternal.
When I think of this, my worries about not having a photographer go away.
We are going to have fun that day. We are going to finally be a family. We will be complete. We will be so blissfully happy. We will be making and full-filling God's promises through our obedience, faith, and patience.
That is what matters! :)
