Weddings are in the air!!

I was blessed today to be able to spend some time with my future sister-in-law to be.
Me and a group of friends and family drove to the Davids Bridal in Horseheads to 
begin the search for Rhonda Hinrichsens wedding dress!!

Sometimes this is a very long a tedious task to handle.
After many months of trying on dress after dress finally most women come to a final decision about which dress is the one to say "I do" in. 
People had told Rhonda that she would not end up with the dress that she went in there saying she wanted but she did. 

When we first got there, Rhonda showed the woman helping us a picture of the dress she wanted. 
After looking at the picture for a moment, the woman said she wasn't sure that they even had that dress in stock anymore but that she would try to find something similar for her.
About 3 dresses went on and then quickly came off because Rhonda knew they weren't for her.
When Erin went to look for more dresses, she suddenly peaked her head around the corner and told Rhonda that she had found it. 
The dress she had been looking for. 
IN. HER. SIZE.

In the entire store there was one dress and it was the perfect size for Rhonda. 
It was fate.
Rhonda put the dress on and came out of the dressing room with a look on her face that told us immediately that this was it. 
This was the dress that she wanted to be wearing when she committed herself to my brother. 

It all makes me think, 
is fate real?
 
Do you think that there really is someone out there with your best interest in mind and when it comes time that you really deserve it, they make it happen? 

I can't wait for the day that I finally get to pick out my special dress.
It took everything I had not to try something on. 
[I did however look through the book and I know what I want! :)]

Nate and Rhonda's special day is only 6 months away. 
Some might say that they are rushing things because they got engaged and will be married within 7 months but you know what?
When it's right, you know it, and they do. 

I wish Nate and Rhonda all the luck in the entire world.
They are so ready to make their commitment 
out and open with themselves, their friends and god. 
I cannot wait for October 6th, 2012 because that is the day I will truly be gaining a sister.


{then you better get workin' on a niece or nephew for me!}

Emily,
I do believe that someone is out there, smiling on you. You have noticed one occasion and that's the key, paying attention to it. It's a difficult task in a world of distractions. But if you make the effort, if you pay attention, fate will be seen everywhere. You are blessed to have the insight to see it. And if nothing else, you know I am always thinking of you and smiling.
