One Week From Today...

I will be Mrs. David Knight!!

AWW...isn't it sweet?? :-) So...we have a busy week ahead of us. And I am SOO one to make many LISTS. It drives David crazy...but, I keep us organized! My sweet friends have been sooo...well, SWEET!! Three of my wonderful friends gave me a surprise shower last Tuesday night and we are going out for a small bachelorette dinner tomorrow night. On Tuesday, my work peeps are giving me a shower too! Isn't that sweet?? Ok...I need to lay off the "sweet." Anyway...everyone has been so nice to make this a special time for David and I and we are so very grateful!


My parents will be here on Wednesday. They are leaving for Tahoe on Thursday and we are leaving on Friday. I think it's a little unfair that they get to leave for OUR wedding trip before us!! But, that's ok...they have to leave earlier than us...so, I guess it's ok. :-)


I won't even share my list with you...it so massive that it makes me a little anxious. And, can you believe they are actually making me WORK this week!! Who has time for that?? I actually went in for about 5 hours yesterday. As soon as I workout and finish this blog, I am going back to work again. BIG FUN! :-)

So...I'll try to update again this week. If not...sorry, but, it will be after we get back from Tahoe. IF anyone is reading anyway! :-)

Have a great week!! GEAUX TIGERS!! Here is a picture of David's front yard. He let's the letters grow until LSU loses. He really thought he was going to have to mow them down last night. Thank GOODNESS, he didn't have too!!

And on the 8th Day, God said...

LET THERE BE LIGHT!!

Thank you, JESUS!! I have power in my apartment...AND CABLE!!! WHOO HOO!! I have been missing me some junk TV. Just in time for Big Brother tonight!! :-)

Ok...just stopped by to say that...on my way out to be fitted for my wedding dress...which is less than 3 weeks away!! LOVE my dress. My mom and I finally found it yesterday...it finally seems like a real wedding now!

Ok...more later. Keep praying...it is HOT down here and there are still many without power. My sweet fiance being one of the them...and MY side of the street at work.

THREE WEEKS FROM TODAY...

THANK GOD...I will be getting married in TAHOE! FAR FAR AWAY from anything named Gustav and Ike. Going on DAY SIX with NO power or Internet...and I think I'm handling it pretty well! If you ask David...he may tell you different. Considering the damage around town...we are extremely lucky. Except I have no power anywhere. David is out, my apartment is still out and my work is still out. We are keeping our fingers crossed that it is soon...but, we are told at least 5 more days for David. Just in time for...HURRICANE IKE!! I can't wish on anyone else...so, I will just PRAY HARD that it will fizzle out. We have faith, right??

We are sitting in a laundry mat washing much needed towels and soaking up some wireless INTERNET!! WOOHOO! I'm getting my fix for now. I hope everyone else survived as well as we did. We have our home and apartment completely in tacked. David had several large limbs down in his back yard...but, both of his beautiful oak trees survived. My apartment lost two trees, the wooden fence along the back of the apartment (right behind me) and a power pole with a transformer fell on a state troopers car in our complex. But, no one was hurt...that is what is important.

Here are a few pictures for you...
Ok...I'm having trouble posting the pictures. The one with the swing set is David's backyard. There is one of his two girls standing next to the down tree behind his house. The other two of the many trees in David's neighborhood.

Four Weeks From Today...

...I'll be starting my honeymoon in a LOVELY place that does NOT have HURRICANES!! :-) Yes...I'm aware we are in the middle of a potentially disastrous hurricane...but, what better way to wait than to update my blog. :-) Plus...we could lose power soon and who knows when it will come back.

So...let me share with you my soon-to-be niece, Angela.










Yes, that is her...Number 35! She lives in Los Angeles and is the ONLY GIRL on an ALL BOYS' team!! Isn't that awesome?! She is a fast little girl! And, just in case you are wondering, no...this is NOT flag football. This is a full on tackle football team. We are very proud of her and wish we could get to see her play. She is such a sweetie too. She and her sister, Victoria, both are such sweet girls. I'm trying to talk David into taking a detour through LA on our way back to get to see her play. So...we'll see.

Ok...I was going to say more...but, our lights just flickered. I better get off now.

Hope everyone is staying safe and survives with LITTLE to NO damage!! STAY SAFE!!!
