Siblings

This weekend was full of many moments that revealed truth. True joy, true sacrifice in love, true family, true imitations of Michael Jackson...

The celebrations of the weekend filled me with a unique joy. I was impacted by these men, these friars who "helped raise" Adam, in his words. They're authentically meek, authentically masculine, authentically living their lives for Christ. It was impossible to be in their midst - watching football, drinking Breckenridge Christmas Ale, playing Banana Grams, dancing all night long, without realizing that Jesus is the source of all true joy.

Thank you, Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, for redefining celebration.

It's as if the beauty of this time sunk in with each flake that fell. 

And each flake brought joy too. We're ready people. She's ready. He's ready. Let the celebrations begin.

Refocusing

Tonight we took a winter walk. The coldness was a good shake-up from focusing too much on tiny details for an event where the most important thing that will happen all day takes the least  planning.

We came back chilly, refreshed and ready to prepare for the yes's that will make the grace and joy flow freely.

Rebekah and Adam wedding countdown: 5 days.
