Honeymoonin'

September 23, 2016 by Abby Rose Metcalf

This past summer, Charles and I got married in Scottsdale, AZ and spent most of our honeymoon time there at The Hotel Valley Ho. The last few days of our honeymoon, we flew down to Florida and got to spend some time at Rosemary Beach, 30A. Here's a few of our favorite memories from our last night on the ocean...

ARLO - Italian for Charles PHOENIX - meaning new era & new beginning. Where Charles and I got married ♥️
Feeling so loved after our baby shower today! 🥰 we love our people so much. Arlo Phoenix Metcalf, we love you more than words can express! You are going to be born into the greatest community of friends and family ever ♥️ big shout out to @gracesont for the photos & @mxdelynn for doing my make up 🥳
At a loss for words for how amazing today was. Charles was asked to speak at the Governors Prayer Service today and we had lunch at the Governor’s Mansion to follow. Leaving so amazingly proud of my husband & overwhelmed with hope for our state and our country. Thank you Governor Kevin & Sarah Stitt for your heart & hospitality! ♥️ Someday we will tell Baby Metcalf about the time we took him to the Governor’s Mansion 😅
We had our 30 week check up yesterday and our baby boy is 3 lbs 8 oz (babies at 30 weeks are typically supposed to be 2 lbs 8 oz...) and in the middle of the ultrasound our doctor said “oh my goodness, this boy has A TON of hair!” 🙊 I can not believe we are getting sooo close to meeting our sweet baby boy!!♥️
Last ten weeks just the two of us. I’m so thankful for this life with you. I LOVE YOU
Last year my goal was to “walk” or to learn to live at a slower pace. I’m a 7 on the enneagram, and my natural instinct is to always be on the go and to always be planning my next adventure. Slowing down in 2018 made me get down to the bottom of a lot of things that were going on internally, that I didn’t even realize were there. Like finding out I placed my identity in WHAT I did rather than WHO I am. 2018 brought me so much growth personally, relationally, (and physically lol.🤰🏼) When I wrote in my journal entry that I want my kids to know the pace of Grace last year, I had no idea how important it was that I began the journey of learning God’s slower pace for my life last year, before our first little babe joins us this year in 2019. It’s cool to see how Jesus leads you right where you need to be, preparing our hearts for the things only he knows we really need. I’m so thankful to be starting 2019 preparing for our little babe with @charlesmetcalf ♥️ I’m still learning how to “go slower.” This year I want to focus on finding a steady pace not only in my life, but in my thoughts & emotions. Maintaining His peace in my mind & heart no matter what’s happening in outside circumstances! Here’s to a new year, the year of Baby Metcalf 🥳
