The Countdown is on....

This is the love of my life, Jenny! We will be getting married this summer on June 20th of 2009. By the time we actually seal the deal we would of been engaged 11 months. I do not recommend this lengthy of an engagement to anyone.....5-6 months would have been ideal. However, time has actually flown by and we will be Mr. and Mrs. Medlin in a little over 2 months.
KIDS CAMP PICTURES

Yes, Jenny is younger than me....but who cares? I don't! I know without a shadow of a doubt that we are God's best for each other...it is amazing to think about how we ended up together: At the time, I reluctantly agreed to be in charge of the recreation at my church's Kid's Camp in the summer of '07. I had just finished teaching and I was needing a little break from the youngins, but God pressed and pressed with me that summer. I had previously told our children's pastor NO, but with two days before they left for camp I called him and asked for the job back. I had never felt God wanting me to do something so badly before this....it was almost like he was saying, "Matt...you idiot....go to Kid's Camp!" So, there ya have it...that's how I ended up at camp. Low and behold, guess who was the intern for the children's ministry and also had to be there at camp this summer? Yep.....Jenny Moyers! That whole experience at camp was the best thing that has ever happened to me. Not only did I meet my future wife, but I got plugged into a ministry that I was so desperately longing for. Long story short.....one year later I proposed to Jenny at the very camp where I met her.....it holds the title of the best day of my life, so far! However, I am positive that June 20th 2009 will take over that spot very shortly! It is funny how God works...especially when you obey him!
