We can't always plan and map out our lives because we never know God's plan. He's the ultimate gatekeeper to our future. This week God revealed a little more of his plan for the lives of future Mr. and Mrs. Jenkins, and fortunately for us, he wants us to be home with our wonderful, huge, gracious, loving families. Aaron should be home this weekend sometime, 17 days til the wedding and then we'll go from there! Can't wait to see Aaron every single day. =)
Like they say, "If you wanna hear God laugh, tell him your plans."

May 7th Fly from Abilene to Knoxville
May 8th Drive to and from Nashville for Eric Hensley’s wedding.
May 9th Fly back to Abilene.
May 12th Fly back to Knoxville (Flight has to go from Abilene to Dallas to Chicago to Knoxville….)
May 15th Get Hitched.

May 22nd Start Drive back to Abilene with Megan’s clothing and shoes in tow.
May is going to a crazy time but super excited about the wedding and the rest of my life with Megan. Its just going to be a little crazy to get to Abilene to unpack. But at least Megan has nothing else to do besides unpack and make a nest.

Little Known Facts....
As the big day nears I have come to realize that there are many things that have to get done before I get married. I know Megan is so super excited about coming to live with me but there are a few things that she really has to realize before she gets here….
I don’t always remember to put the toilet seat down.
Heck I really don’t remember to put the seat up! So in turn I may from time to time drip a little on the seat.
Dutch Ovens….If she does not know what this she will very soon….
Charlie, my dog, from time to time will chew things up. IE. Toilet paper, cardboard boxes toothbrushes, toothpaste (three tubes), bag of chips, milk jugs, and even a book or two.
I sometimes forget to put my dishes in the dishwasher. To tell the truth I most of the time forget to get them out of the floor where Charlie helped cleaned them.
I sometimes but very rarely forget to put my clothes in the dirty clothing hamper. Somehow I just leave it where I ever took it off even if that’s on top of the refrigerator.
Charlie likes to sleep in the bed. I have told her to go sleep in the floor but she thinks the bed is where she is supposed to be.
Some mornings I don’t dry off very well before I step out of the shower and cover the bathroom floor with water.
Megan is going to be so lucky to have someone like me. The wedding is sneaking up on as quicker and quicker. I still have to figure how to get all of Megan’s clothes down here I am think freight load using a semi…..I sure do hope that we don’t lose any boxes on the way down…I am excited to have a wife to come home to after a longs day work. As Megan informs me every morning on her way to school its only 24 days….

Holy Moly!
Aaron here reporting that today marks 25 days until I marry my best friend and I couldn't be more excited. Ok, it's Megan. Here are a few things that equal 25:
A quarter of a century
A quarter
5 squared
Mid twenties
Halfway to 50
The amount of money required for one matinee movie ticket and a large popcorn and coke zero
The temperature outside when Aaron took me camping with no tent
The age I will be in 2012
The number of grandchildren that will be in the Jenkins family by 2012 =)
The amount of times my Kindergarteners ask me if it's playtime in a given day
The amount of times I've almost gagged at the snot/mucas/urine/throwup from my school children...this week
The age Brandon will be on the day after our wedding
The number of times Brandon has told Aaron he still has time to back out
1/4 of the amount of shoes I realized I have after packing
Exactly the amount of bathing suits I realized I have after packing
Only 1/1,000,000,000,000,000 of the love and excitment I have to be marrying my best friend.
See you so soon. I can't wait.
