OOOH!!!

Didja see?? Didja see???
we're under 300 days until the wedding!!
Does this excite anyone else?
tee hee...
Things are going well...still pretty much in the same holding pattern....trying to nail down a concrete idea for favors...(Bug isn't sure about the cookie cutters)
however, God is providing in wonderful ways and we're feeling a little less of strangle hold than before with regards to the finances...but still waiting for Him to lift the burden of the house (I know, you're sick of hearing it...I'm sick of saying it....but He's got to have some big plan right??)

Today Jeff Hoy talked about unexpected answers to prayer...how it's cool to pray specifically...but not to be shocked if your prayer is answered in another way...Naomi lost her sons...but she got Ruth....and then Boaz and a grandson....a kinsman redeemer to kind of patch up her cracked world...not what she was expecting...and yet....exactly met the needs....
So today my mission is to stop determining that this answer to prayer is only the way I see it (much more money or someone to buy it....) but maybe there's a whole nother option I've never thought to consider.....

cookie cutters are a lot less time consuming to present, for one thing. Just tie a note and maybe your favorite recipe on with fancy ribbon and you're done, whereas many other gifts (soap, m-n-m's, etc) require at least something to wrap them in in addition to a bow and note and might not last in certain temperatures (hot car, for example) or might require more careful transport, which is a pain.

does that help?
