Mike and Melissa




Well I suppose I should update you on life! This one will be about Mike. I met an amazing man this summer. A man that I always hoped I would meet and have in my life, but a man that I was beginning to wonder if I would ever have in my life at all. After a rough day in this department I got to this point where I wasn't giving up, but I really was frustrated and had a "whatever"attitude about it all.

Then I met Mike Carr. I mean within hours of feeling like this. We talked all the time, we seemed to really get along but I still wasn't sure. We were at coffee and I think I knew he was the right guy for me but I just kept a slight wall up still. We closed the coffee shop down, we walked through a couple of stores and both had to get on our way. He called me later that night and asked me out for Friday Night. We went out that Friday and we have been inseparable ever since. God just made it very clear to me that the man sitting across the table from me, was a very special man in my life and to really see him for who he had been made to be! It's amazing how God has put us in each others lives. He is doing amazing things!

We have fallen in love with each other and in complete thankfulness and awe of God for putting us together. It's amazing how quickly your life can be changed.

Mom got to meet mike when she came out here for a visit. Well actually she met him in the Denver airport where they were both flying through at the same time on her way out here! Mike is an amazing man who loves God, his family, his friends and is very attentive to what is going on around him. He is funny, adventurous, sweet, genuine, intelligent, trustworthy, protective, strong, handsome, an amazing daddy, honest.... really this list can go on and on.

We are so excited to see what everyday brings! We have had some great adventures, dates, just normal days and laid back days already. We are very excited to see and meet my St. Louis people at the end of September, then the next week Mike and his kids and I and my friends Nicole and Duc and their kids are off for a cruise to Catalina Island and Mexico!

Here are a couple pictures of us! I'll put a state fair blog up soon. we just went this past weekend!

I hope you are all doing well!
Much love,
Mel
