He Came to Meet Me

Was doing some covert wedding related scouting this weekend and came upon a beautiful song by Hem. He Came to Meet Me. Go here http://www.hemmusic.com/music.html to listen to the song. Its in the album Funnel Cloud. (Not sure how all my other friends change the web address to a word. I can do it in Outlook. Hm. Oh well.)

Here are the lyrics:

He came to meet me

On some July morning

He said he missed me

He came without warning

We walked for half a day

Got lost in my neighborhood

Came back another way

Just like I knew we would

And he came to meet me

He had some stories

He knew a few of mine

I had not heard his voice

For such a long time

My mind would race a bit

Come back to where we stood

I could not keep hold of it

Although I knew I should

And he came to meet me

I'd seen this whole day

Like it was drawing near

Sometimes I'd pray for it

Sometimes I'd shake with fear

Sometimes the only thought

That kept me in the night

Was one that I'd forgot

In summer's blinding light

And he came to meet me

I wrote myself a song

I could not speak what I'd done

He could've been here all along

He could've been anyone

But there is no one who

Could wake my heart like this

Could break my world in two

I felt a suddenness

I felt a suddenness

The day fell completely still

The dream was a lot like this

But I never knew until

He came to meet me

Chris and I have decided to focus on US right now instead of wedding planning. We definitely have some work to do and I am really glad he was the one who requested we do this first. It makes it seem like it was totally his idea which is always good. Of course I still have my eyes open for good ideas and have already picked my color palette. Hopefully in a few weeks we'll set a date and I can at least book a venue. I don't mind not focusing on the wedding, but my control freak side does want to get some things done so I won't worry about them.


Chris and I both want a very small wedding so I am begging my friends not to be offended if they aren't invited. We'll have a party that will be lots more fun anyways. Right after I redecorate 'our' house. How weird does that sound? Let's just make this even weirder. Tricia Frank. Tricia Ann Kersh Frank. I think that is who I will be. Whacky.


Here's a little preview of colors. I like the darker teal blue and coral colors. Shh. Don't tell.
