Yes, you heard correctly! We have residence. Well, that is to say….Jason does.
We signed the lease a little over two weeks ago and Jasons been living there since July 14th. Its been such a blessing having him living in Sac. Plus its great for his commute with the CLP at Home Depot (see earlier posts for more info) – which otherwise would be almost twice as long if he were coming from EDH. We’ve had great fun getting the place set up to be our first home together. Who knows? Maybe the next move will be into a house! 
The main point of this post is just to let people know how God has amazingly blessed us with our first apartment. Everything is coming together and God has just providentially arranged for everything we need to arrive just in time. God declares that this is how it will be in His Word and man is he faithful! He is amazing and we cannot express just how blessed we’ve been. We are both overwhelmed with gratitude (mainly to God, but also to our friends and loved ones with whom none of this would be possible). Needless to say, things have been coming along just fine.
In wedding news: We’ve both just realized that the wedding is three weeks away. Yeah, we can hardly believe it either. After waiting through a year and a half engagement three weeks feels like nothing. This, of course, is a sober reminder to me of just how much I have left to do. I am confident, however, that God will take care of it – even if He does it at the very last minute (sometimes He works like that, you know?).
Meanwhile we both continue to keep our noses to the grind stone in working and trying to pull this wedding thing off in reasonable fashion. Tonight: We’re going downtown to get our marriage license. Tomorrow: We sit down and try to sign us up for benefits with HD…..Isn’t wedding planning fun???? Ok, I never said it was glamorous work, but it is pretty exciting, no?
I think thats pretty much everything thats been going on. I’m gonna try and get the wedding programs finished and printed out this weekend (God willing) and I am still working on getting the rehearsal set up. Trying to get everyone involved to coordinate together has been a major hassle for me. But by the Grace of God everything will be just fine.
More updates as the blessed day draws nearer!
In Christ,
Sarah
