Jenn Engaged!

Ryan & Jenn have been friends for about 10 years. She has also become a sweet and wonderful friend of mine. She is an incredibly faithful person and encouragment to all who know her. We are so blessed to call her a sister in Christ and a precious friend.

Jenn started dating her Ryan about 2 months ago. They knew from the start that this was "it"! They are just loving love and one another and excited for the journey God has ahead of them.

Ryan started getting us involved in his engagement plan a couple of weeks ago. They came to Charleston for dinner on Friday night and Ryan planned to propose to Jenn on Saturday morning as a total surprise.

We went to dinner on Friday at the Boathouse and spent some time getting to know Jenn's new man. We had a blast with the two of them just hearing their love story. It was awesome to see a new relationship God had brought together and His perfect timing for their lives.



Saturday, Ryan woke Jenn up before sunrise and took her to Folly Beach to pop the question. He had her a Bible with her new name and had the ring wrapped in the fold of her favorite verse. He asked her and she said "yes"!!! These are some pictures of them from their big, exciting day!

Ryan had a surprise waiting later that day at California Dreaming where he had invited their families to celebrate their engagement. So sweet!


So, congrats Jenn & Ryan. We pray 1 Peter 4:8 for you two:
"Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins"
We love you and are so happy for both of you!!!!

10 things...

I am such a copy-cat today, but I love this idea! My favorite, Beth Moore, started this on her blog,  and then I noticed my girls, Alyssa and Kathyrn did it on their blogs too. I am learning so many new things about people and, naturally, I need to do it now! Here are the directions: What are 10 things - right off the top of your head - that we would only know about you if we knew you really well? 10 random things ranging anywhere on your personal map that make you a tad distinctive? Or just plain weird? Think quickly. Don't go for deep. Go for quirky. Don't try to put them in any kind of order and don't make them long. Just start typing. Since this is the Reese blog, I will attempt to do it for both of Ryan and myself.... Anna: 1. I hate to shave. Freshman year of college, I only shaved once a week and my friends and people I worked with tried to straighten me out with weekly "armpit checks"...sick, but true. 2. I love zits, abscesses, blood blisters---an

Miracle!!

Ryan and I are so so thankful and excited to make the announcement that we are having a baby! Right now, I have just finished up the first trimester. The baby is almost 15 weeks old. We actually get to find out the gender in a couple of weeks, which is so exciting! It has been such a wonderful time. The Lord has truly blessed us with this miracle. Through this process, the thing that I have been thinking the most of in my heart is that the Lord is good. I don't know why this truth is sometimes hard for me to soak in. Life is hard and trials happen- this is so true and the trials do not make God any less good. However, sometimes, the Lord just gives to His children. I find it so crazy that I am resistant to believe this at times, but I always look at the toughest or hardest outcome in a situation and assume that it will happen. However, through this, I have been reminded that although the Lord allows hard things to happen at times to shape and define us, He does good things a

Reflections

I am currently about to be done with my last class ever in PA school. That fact combined with the fact that I have to turn in my computer in about an hour has inspired me to blog! I cannot believe that this chapter of my life is almost done. As I look back over my life, I think of the many things that I have done and sacrificed to prepare for this moment. High school and working hard to make the best grades possible and be involved so that I could achieve something and do something with my life. College and majoring in Biology so that I could go into the health care field. Figuring out that I wanted to go to PA school and my course changing. I ended up having to take about 36 extra hours on top of biology courses just to get the pre-reqs I needed for PA school. I remember back to the application process and attempting to make sure everything was in order. Then I was devastated when I did not get into PA school that first time. I began a job after we got married at the Heart Center to
