La Boda

For those of you who are reading this/wondering, the URL to this blog is "bratsta" because

1. broun + lat = brat, and

2. sta=short for Stacy, the new last name of this God-contrived family unit. =)

So, since I like pseudo-stalking people's lives via electronic photos and journaling (blogs), i decided I would try and be less of a hypocrite and let the world in on my life as well.

Here we are!... A month married, and well on our way to understanding what oneness really means.

We were married on 11/10/09 (that's how the spaniards would write the date), which is October 11, 2009. We had around 200 people at the wedding in Austin. The wedding was amazingly beautiful, and I have to give most of that credit to A) God, B) my mother, Telicia Montague (+her wonderful friends), and C) Lake Travis. It rained most of the day, but remained [spiritually] misty during the ceremony.

Jonathan Almanzar, Broun's friend/mentor from his time in Mexico, was the officiant/pastor of the matrimony. He had much truth to bring that day, to everyone. His sermonette outlined the idea of cultivation. The way we can grow into one another by purely believing and seeing the potential in the other. but also being content with this person if they never change. I married Broun of the present, not some future version of who I hope Broun might become. We then exchanged some personally written vows to one another, followed by traditional vows. It was all by the magic of Jesus that we were able to come together and worship Him as a congregation, being moved by the Holy Spirit in spoken Truth, and joyfully party on the grace that God has given us.
