Adventures in Kellyland....

Hey everyone, Kate here!! I am so thrilled to be a part of this with Kelly. She is such a beautiful and amazing person who is such a positive influence in the lives of so many people!
This is my first blog on the here so I’ve got plenty to talk about, but I’ll try to keep it short so I don’t lose your attention!
This weekend was definitely one for the books. We all laughed and we all cried, but in the end it was a great weekend! Friday night we all arrived at Kelly’s Aunt Barbara’s house to learn a little about Fondue, and it was DELISH! We played some “High Cotton” where Kelly ended the night as the Ultimate High Cotton Queen! (pics to follow soon!) How appropriate right? We called it an early night since we knew we had a lot to do on Saturday.
Saturday morning Kelly and I got up bright and early for a quick jog, then got ready to go for her very first fitting for her dress, and to pick out shoes for her and the bridesmaids. After missing the exit, and some funny banter in the car we made our way to David’s Bridal. We found the shoes and Kelly tried on her dress. And that’s when the day got interesting to say the least! Kelly has done such a great job exercising and eating healthy that the seamstress was shocked at how large the dress was on her. She was pretty much told that a new dress would be in order. So after getting our thoughts together we sat out on a mad dash through out the store to gather up ALL the dresses that would be a good fit for the Bride. After the last dress was tried on, we all decided that Kelly should check out some other stores after she’s had sometime to clear her mind.
So we went home and Aunt Barbara cooked up some yummy stir fry. She also made an itinerary for Sunday. Sunday we all got up and got ready to set out on our next adventure….Morrow, GA. After perusing through the dresses the Store Manager convinced Kelly to try on her original dress to see what she thought of it. Much to our surprise she was very confident in the fact that the dress could be altered, and that the searching for a new dress could end! PHEW!! Now that the bride’s dress issue had been resolved and a veil was found, the search was on for the Mother of the Bride to find the perfect dress!!
Debs tried on quite a few dresses, which were all beautiful! It was the day for dress issues to be resolved apparently because she found a gorgeous dress that looked so beautiful on her!!! One thing to make this day better…it was half of half off!!! YAY DEBS!!!
To say this weekend was an emotional rollercoaster is putting it lightly, but we are all confident in the fact that we serve a Mighty God, who can ALTER all things!! I’m sure pictures from the weekend will be up soon! See you all November 28th!!!

Our Hostess for the Weekend, Aunt Barbara

Our Favorite Bride and Ultimate High Cotton Queen

What a Weekend!!

WOW!! Just settling in from a busy, but super fun weekend! The fun began on Thursday of last week! My wonderful friends Tammy, Lucy, and Zoie picked me up in Valdosta on Thursday night, and we all headed to Hawkinsville! When we arrived Ms. Peggy had cooked a wonderful dinner, which we all "inhaled." Ms. Kemper also came over, which was a treat! We all love her so much! After dinner we hung out and fellowshiped before going to bed so that we could be rested up for the Isaacs Concert on the following day.

The next morning after Nathan got into town we GOT OUR MARRIAGE LICENSE!!! YAY...its almost official..ha ha ha! And then we headed to spend the day at the venue where they would be playing later that night. The concert was WONDERFUL...they really out did themselves, as usual! It was sad when it was over becasue Nathan had to leave, but I will see him again soon. On Saturday, Mom and I went shopping for her dress..which we did not find! She did however, find a stunning dress for the bridesmaids luncheon and a gorgeous chiffon pant suit for the rehearsal. Later we met my Grannie and my Aunt Barbara to shop for Grannie's dress!! She found two gorgeous dresses, one for the wedding, and one for the luncheon. After shopping we headed to Aunt Barbara's house where she taught me to make sushi!! That's right folks, Kelly Williams "Fauscett" Sushi Chef!! LOL After enjoying our sushi we played a fun game called High Cotton that I would reccomend highly...especially for a girls night!

The next day we got ready for the shower, had an excellent lunch with my cousin Talisha and her husband Chad, Thanks Aunt Barbara, and then headed to Hawkinsville....Unfortunately we were slightly late, due to the fact that the GPS took us in three complete circles before we could figure out what was going on...ooops! Once we made it, everything was sooo nice! Nathan and I were so blessed by all of the generosity exhibited by the families in his home church! We recieved so many nice things that will be perfect for our new home! Thank you all sooooooooo much for making this time so very special! After the shower we were all exhausted! Mom and Grannie headed to Dublin and Mindy and I headed to Valdosta! All in all it was extremely busy, but extremely worth it! :)

Oh...and I havent forgotten about the pics from the girls weekend...Ladies if you have pics from the shindig please email them to me so I can get them posted! Thanks!

Nathan's Latest Blog....

Hey Everyone,



Its Nathan! It's been a while since I have blogged...... I'm a slacker I know! LOL... I have had an amazing journey with Kelly during the planning of our wedding, and of course she has done more than I ever thought one person could do. I have been busy planning the honeymoon and getting all that lined up, and I think she will be very, very happy... the kicker is she doesn't know where we are going...Its a surprise folks!! ha ha.... I know that's mean, but it will be worth it. I get to see Kelly this weekend as we are playing in Macon, Ga, and I can't wait. I know that she had a great time with her friends this passed weekend, and I'm glad she got to do that. It is getting closer and closer to our big day, and it's really hard to believe that I'm getting married. I never thought that I would ever find THE ONE, but God has a plan for everyone. We have both been running, and have each shed a few pounds for our special day.... ok, ok so she is blowing me away as far as this goes. I just can't seem to get into it like she has, but I'm still trying! I hope to be blogging again soon so be on the look out for my new blogs leading up to the big day. If you scroll down a little further, I think Kelly wrote a blog today too...just didnt want you to miss anything!

Update....

Ok...Well first off I want to thank you all for your votes! Looks like most of you guys are thinking that number 1 is the winner, with number 8 running a close second! And Gina is right folks...you will all have to wait until November 28th to see the actual pick! The big day is quickly approaching and we could not be more thrilled, excited...and a little nervous! LOL...This past weekend I got to spend some time with many of my closest freinds for a girls weekend, and we had a blast! Hopefully I can get some pics of the bash posted soon for all of you to "enjoy".... Nathan has promised me that he is blogging later today, so lets see if we can encourage him to get it done!!!!! He needs a little "push" every now and then ; ) The Isaccs will be playing in GEORGIA this weekend which is actually pretty rare! They will be in Macon, which is pretty close to home for me, and of course, I will be attending! If you are anywhere within driving distance I would surely love to see you there! Im super excited about seeing Nathan, as well as many of our friends who will be attending! My parents are going as well so if you are attending and haven't gotten the chance to meet them, they'd love to meet you...and so would I! Lately we have been putting the finishing touches on our plans for the big day, and it seems like there is still sooo much left to do! I will be moiving back home to Vidalia at the end of this month which will be good so that Mom and I can finish getting everything all finished up....but at the same time it will also be sad...can't think about that part now : ( Alrighty...Lets see if Nate will blog today, and then hopefully I can get those pics up soon! Love you all and hope to see you very soon!
