Wedding Pictures!
Here are a few pictures before and during the wedding!!!
Me just being goofy before the wedding. I was not nervous at this point. I did get a little nervous while I was standing behind the doors waiting for the music to start and for them to open the doors and for me to walk in. It was the BEST feeling when the music started and they doors opened and there stood Les. I just tried to stay focused on him and smile. I couldn't wait to get to him. :)
Here is another goofy picture before the wedding. You can see the design in my dress!! I loved my dress and when I tried it on for the first time and I saw myself - I busted out in tears! So did everyone else who was with me. I knew this was MY dress!!!!
This is my lovely Auntie Teri. I just love this woman and she is by far the best aunt ever. She was so sweet to design all of my jewelry for my bridesmaids, my flower girl, my mom, and ME TOO!! She did an absolute wonderful job and for that I'll be forever grateful to her. THANK YOU, TERI!!! You looked stunning in your dress too!!
Here is Les and I during the Unity Candle. My candle that I used to light the big one fell off the stand and hit my dress. Les picked it up and gave it to me and then he looked at my dress and gave me 2 Thumbs Up that everything was all good. We all laughed and it was a great moment!!!
Here is our 1st kiss as a married couple. I'm not quite sure what is going on with my hand, but it is really funny!!!! I think this picture is so sweet!!!

Rehearsal Dinner photos
Here are a few pictures from the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner!!! We had a great time spending our last night as "single people" with our family and friends.
Here is a picture of Les and I before rehearsal started. After this picture I walked into the sanctuary and cried. It looked beautiful! 
Here is what I saw when I walked in and saw the sanctuary! Just beautiful!! Thank you to everyone who helped us decorate - it looked beautiful!!
Here is Les reading his "Menu". Le Menu is for all the lingerie that was given to me at the lingerie party!! It was a complete blast, but 1 of the names was really embarrassing!! hahaha Those are great times and great memories!!!!!!!! Thank you friends!!!
This metal ring is so cool. In fact, Les hung it out on our front porch and it looks awesome. This was given to us by my parents. It says on the top "The Cornelius'" and underneath "Est. October 6, 2007." It is soo cool and looks great on the front porch. :) The Texas shape in the middle has a star cut-out approximately where Lucas is. That is where we live!!

Here is a black and white picture of me and my dress. I had fun playing with the camera adjustments. I like this picture too in B&W.

Married Life!!
Wow, I don't know where the time has gone - we have been married for 3 wks now!!!!!! Les and I got hitched on October 6th at 2 PM! It was the best day of my life so far. I am so happy that God gave me Les and I couldn't be any happier. Married life is awesome!
We had a wonderful honeymoon and can't believe that I have been back to work now for 2 weeks. I am now starting my 3rd week back and doing great. The first week back was very rough. I started feeling dizzy on Tuesday and almost passed out that afternoon. It was very scary. My doctor told me that she thinks I was suffering from exhaustion. I got a lot of rest and FINALLY after about 2 days got my color back (I was pale for a few days) and felt more rested.
I went last week with my SIL who is pregnant with triplets to the doctor. It was so cool! I got to see the 3 babies and it was awesome. I had never seen a sonogram before and I was super excited! If you want to read about her pregnancy with triplets go to: www.triple-a-amy.blogspot.com.
Last night (Sunday), Les and I took our dogs out on the boat for a stroll around the lake. That was a lot of fun! Kodiak, who LOVES the water had a great time, especially when we let her get in. Bear, who HATES the water had a great time too. Once he realized that he was safe in the boat he relaxed some and enjoyed it. It did scare him when Les was flying across the water and hitting some bumps in the water.
I can't think of much else, so I'm going to get back to work. Ciao for now! :)

I'm HOME!!!
I made it home safely from Colombia only by God's help. Let me tell you of the adventure that I had flying from Colombia on Tuesday.
We were flying Avianca Airlines from Barranquilla to Miami. On this flight we had 2 scary incidents. #1 - I was really cold on the flight and so was the man next to me. We both turned our AC's off and were covered in our blankets. I got up about 1/2 way home and went to the bathroom. As I got closer to the back of the plane you could hear an alarm going off (not a watch alarm). I noticed that the back door of the plane had napkins stuff all around it. There was an air leak!!!!! So now I'm thinking that I am definitely ready to land and be in the US. As we started our decent into Miami; we were going through a t-storm and our plane was struck by a lightening bolt!! It was really loud with a very bright flash. I was reading an article online about lightning and it said that this is a rather common occurence. They said that they sent 1400 planes into storms and 700 of them were hit. This was the 1st time this has ever happened to me though and I have flown ALOT!! I was so glad when we finally touched down in the USA.
On my flight from Miami to Dallas, we were pulling away from the gate and were starting to go towards the tarmac for take-off and the plane completely died and all the lights went out. However, the emergency lights quickly came on. I told my co-worker sitting by me that I wanted off the plane. Our Captain came on and said that our auxiliary something had to be re-lit and it would only take 30 seconds. Then we were on our way to DFW. I was still a little nervous about that flight, but once we got in the air and cruising home - I was good to go. I read and tried to rest before I got home.
Once we finally landed I was so happy and praised the Lord for bringing us home safely! I feel that God had his hands wrapped around our planes all the way home protecting us.
I was so excited to see Les at the airport and he surprised me by bringing our dog Kodiak. She was so glad to see me, but she was more thirsty than anything!!! hahaha
It's so good to be home and the wedding is in 9 days and I am sooo excited!! We started moving my clothes over last night - stuff that I know I won't need between now and after the honeymoon. We have been busy just continuing getting the house ready. That stuff takes time and we're getting there.

Dog Day at the Pool!!!!!
I am so excited about tomorrow. Allen (where we live) is having a Dog Day at the pool. So, I am planning on taking Kodiak to go swimming tomorrow. We went a few years ago together and had an absolute blast! They had contests like - which dog is the fastest swimming, which dog could jump off the diving board the farthest, etc. It was a blast!
I'll try to take my camera and take pictures and post them next week - that's IF I remember to take my camera.......lol I am not always the best about taking pictures, but I'll try b/c it will definitely be fun.

Power of Prayer
ONE MINUTE EACH NIGHT
In WWII, there was an advisor to Winston Churchill who organized a group of people who dropped what they were doing every night at a prescribed hour for one minute to collectively pray for the safety of England , its people and peace. This had an amazing effect as bombing stopped.
There is now a group of people organizing the same thing here in America . If you would like to participate: each evening at 9:00 PM Eastern, 8:00 PM Central, 7:00 PM Mountain, 6:00 PM Pacific, stop whatever you are doing and spend one minute praying for the safety ot the United States, our troops, our citizens, and for peace in the world.
If you know anyone who whould like to participate, please pass this along. Someone said if people really understood the full extent of the power available thorugh prayer, we might be speechless.Our prayers are the most powerful asset we have.

Brand New Sanctuary
I am so excited about this weekend at church. Our brand new sanctuary is opening up for the 1st time and I am SUPER excited!! I have seen this church grow and change since I was a young girl. I have been going to this church since I was born. I have seen the church go from a little while church in Fairview to another sanctuary that we built down the road about 1/4 mile. Then from there we moved to Allen and we're called Cottonwood Creek Baptist Church (CCBC). We have been meeting in our gym for 5-6 years and now we have a REAL sanctuary. I can hardly wait for tomorrow!!!!!!!!
1 thing that is bad is that Les won't be able to go to church with us to see this monumental service. I am disappointed and he is too, but there's not much that we can do at this point. I am thinking about surprising him and buying a DVD if I can of the service so that he can enjoy it afterwards. I know it won't be the same, but at least it's something. We have less than 2 months till we get married in this sanctuary!! :)

Good luck!
Here is a picture of me and Ekeko. He supposedly grants wishes. I, of course, took my picture with him while I was in Peru. I went to this shopping place several times to eat. The food was really good and pretty darn cheap too.

Goats
Well, tonight was fun! My mom and I went and saw some friends of ours up the road who raise goats. They are in all sizes small, medium, and large! We took my nephew who had an absolute ball; which was fun.
Now we're home eating a grape salad and watching TV. Trying to get Caleb (my nephew) wound down and into bed.
Tomorrow night I have agility training with Kodiak. I haven't been in over a month. Partly because of all the rain we've been having and then I was gone for 2 of the weeks. As I think back, its actually been probably 5-6 weeks!! WOW!!! I know that Kodiak misses it b/c she loves training. Plus, she has graduated to the next class; which will begin tomorrow. Last week it was cancelled b/c of the rain - what a BIG surprise!! hahahaha
That's all for now - Kimberly

This is the quote from July 29th (I'm a little behind since I have been gone). I was given a daily flip calendar that has marriage quotes, scriptures from the Bible, etc. It is called "To Love and to Cherish."
