Keys unlock the door to OUR Future

today was a big day in my life. it started out as any other day--- breakfast, a little studying, lunch with leah at potbelly's---- but it ended so differently than any other day before. at 4pm today reagan and i signed the lease to our first townhouse... our first place to live. we signed our signatures and initialed on the lines and gave big smiles as we anxiously awaited to have the keys to our first home in our hands. once the manager of the townhouse handed me my set of keys i almost felt like crying... it felt like i had grown-up in the blink of an eye and i had my first home with my soon to be husband. it would have definitely been tears of joy, at how amazing GOD is and how HE works all things out for our good. once we had the keys we drove to our townhouse, #1108. i took a picture of the outside... i had to document that this was our first home, and when we walked through the front door together i was overwhelmed with so many emotions. my mind was running in circles, i kept thinking of all the memories we would make in our first home and how excited that makes me for the future. it was wonderful, and definitely a moment that reagan and i shared together that we were so grateful for. once we walked around our place, then we headed to the jewelry store to pick up reagan's wedding ring. as soon as reagan put on the ring he had the biggest smile on his face, and he didn't want to take it off. that is when it hit me, in 49 DAYS we are going to be husband and wife... HOLY MOLY!!!! having a home now makes it feel real, makes it feel like we really are going to be a family, and after June 12, 2010 we will have a place to live as husband and wife and that more than anything makes me so happy.
today was an incredible day, the door that opened the first chapter of our life as a soon to be married couple. i cannot wait to move into the townhouse once we get back from our honeymoon and begin making memories together. these moments in our first house are ones that i know we will cherish for a lifetime.

"You hold the key to your Future, but GOD is the one who knows which key will unlock the right door for your life."
