We're in the teens, people!

In 19 days, I will be married to the most incredible person in my life. In 19 days, my life will change forever, for the better. In 19 days, I will be Mrs. Jeremy Campbell :)

I can't believe it! I mean its really almost here. I have waited my life for this moment and I am so ecstatic that it's so close. I'm smiling just thinking about it. Some say we're too young. Let's face it, we're babies getting married. But who cares, right? Ya, there will be tough times and we are going to get frustrated with eachother. That's just married life. But we will work it all out. We will be just fine. Sounds cliche, but our love will get us through it. Well, really our love and laughter. I love how we make the best out of every situation. We always seem to suck it up, laugh about it, and move on. Jeremy always finds the humor in everything. I love that about him. I love how when we open the fridge and all that is in there is lunch meat and water, he laughs and says "I love being poor with you." These are the days we are going to look back in 25 years on and say, "that's when I learned _____" or "It was hard, we had to live simple, but we made it". We will tell our children, "When we first got married all we had in our pantry was rice, mac and cheese and water." I love that. We've already learned some pretty valuable lessons. We've made mistakes and the Lord has whispered in our ears, "Your irresponsibility is not me not providing"......uh, whoa. SO true. He will be our provision and our security, but we have to be good stewards with what he has already given us. We have to do our part if we expect him to do his. Learned a good lesson today, and I can't wait to learn more with my future husband.

Can I just boast about Jeremy for a minute? He is THE hardest working person I have ever met in my life. He does whatever he can to make me feel secure and provided for. Get this- he mowed 5 lawns today, and worked on a renovating a house to make extra money for us. 7am to 4pm on a SATURDAY. It's one of my favorite things about him actually. That, and his peaceful nature. He is steadfast, secure, and chalked full of wisdom. Definately a man after the Lord's heart.
