Show Us Your Life - Show Us Your Single Boys

I haven’t been around much and that’s a good thing. I have been super busy just enjoying the kids and getting our home more organized – getting back to life. There is so much catching up and that will begin next week. For now, Friday’s will be a Link up day with Show Us Your Life at Kelly’s Korner.

One of my best friends from college is Preston - we have known each other for 11 years. He is single, 32, and lives in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas. He needs a sweet, smart, woman to walk this life journey. Preston is faithful, kind, smart, hard working, athletic, agreeable, and one of the best friends you will ever have. He likes chocolate, cooking, baking, manly outdoors stuff like shooting and hunting and fishing, and shopping (yes, shopping).

He even knows how to push back his cuticles – we have had that discussion. He plays all kinds of sports. He is the middle child of three boys – so he is very agreeable and well balanced. Very important to know birth order, ladies, and how you relate to your potential spouse! The Bentley team will see him in just a few hours to tour his first house....I’ll fill you in later! The best thing about Preston is his relationship with Christ – it is evident in all or almost all he does. He is active in his small church, and the entire time I have known Preston, he has always taken my worries and hurts to Christ. When he says he is praying for you, he really is! I was 25 and living with my parents, and was like “nobody is ever going to want me – I live with my parents – and why doesn’t someone want me?” Things with my Dad were not peachy-keen, I felt like a L-oser, couldn’t find a job in fundraising/PR/marketing/writing, worked a job that I later came to love, was tired of attracting weird men, and just prepared myself to be single forever. (Ha! Now, I have two little ones crawling over me as I attempt this post. Sometimes I wish I could have one of those single days of solitude to refresh.)

Anyway, Preston began to pray for my husband, and sure enough, he showed up within six months. And, when I decided to get serious with Justin, the opinion of Preston mattered right next to my Dad’s and my best girl friends’. I was so happy that Preston liked Justin because I didn’t want to give up one of my best friends and wanted Justin and Preston to be friends. Hopefully, that speaks to who Preston is. He is also goofy and funny. His entire family is simply wonderful! His mom and dad are super sweet, his brothers are great guys, and his sister in law is fabulous! He is a Longhorns fans, so that is a major negative Girls! You have been warned!

(If anyone dates and marries this man…I MUST be invited to the wedding and maybe even be part of your wedding! ;) Just so you know! )

Let me know what you think!
