Mark and Katie's Stupendous Wedding Blog

As of today, we have 192 days until the wedding. Wow! I can remember when we first got engaged–it seemed like October 9 would never come, since it was over a year away! Now, with less than 200 days until THE DAY, I can’t believe how fast the time has flown.

In chapel the other day, the speaker mentioned how time goes by faster and faster as you age. I can definitely understand what he means. When I was in second grade, I felt that high school kids were the. coolest. ever. Those days, the year consisted of two seasons–waiting for Christmas and Christmas. Months seemed like huge units of time that were difficult to overcome, and “when I grow up” was more like an idea than an actuality.

Today, I am finally to the point where I can look back and say to myself, “that was three years ago???” I feel like a month is just the blink of an eye, and the barely-over-six-months time span that remains until the wedding will be over before I know it. I am definitely excited about this new phase of life, but I can also say that it does seem crazy to me that I am actually graduating from college, getting married and starting a new chapter. Crazy in a good way, but crazy indeed.

I know that this post isn’t too weddingy, but hey, that’s okay. In case you were craving wedding-related stuff, I can report that I have not yet found a florist. I know I need to do this soon, but I just haven’t found time to do it yet. If you know a good one in the DFW area, let me know!
