100 days until my new journey begins

Friends, family, neighbors, can you believe that there is only 100 days left of this adventure? It has been so crazy the past little bit, but I am so grateful for everyday. I do apologize for not posting prior to this but... this whole getting married thing is way more important! I would love to catch you up on things though, and quite frankly there is a lot to catch you up on, but I'll spare you the boring details and skip straight to the fun ones!

Spencer and I have been engaged for almost two months. I thought I had a lot planned before we got engaged... no it was all in my head, but now... now everything is planned and coming together smoothly. It's crazy how fast time has gone, I am not complaining at all though. I will admit though, being engaged has brought some stress (mostly expected stress, and only currently engaged or married women will understand this). Trying to coordinate everything from the flowers I hold to the linens on the tables, down to the last speck of glitter I place on things. I love it but man it sure is exhausting planning a wedding, good thing I am only doing this once.

Spencer and I have both been busy with work and his summer school. Our date nights are cheap and mostly revolve around the wedding (sorry baby) but it is very fun. I find it comforting that I found such an amazing guy, he is such a big help with things. I know the crafty things he leaves up to me but he helps in many other ways that no one else an comprehend the meaning it has to me. I know it's so cliche to say this but I literally fall more in love with him every day, no joke. Even when we have our little hiccups about things he is the first one I lean on to receive the comfort I am looking for. I love it because he can just be sitting next to me and sense there is something going on. Secretly I am sure he loves helping me plan our wedding.

As we bounce from one task to another, finally results are coming. We can check things off our once long "To Do List", hallelujah! Most of the big things are done with the exception of actually having my dress in my hands. It's a long, long story, but finally my dress will be perfect and with me soon. Engagements: check! Cake: check! Luncheon: check!  Reception: check!Sealing time and place: check! Honeymoon: check! Center pieces: check! Bed frame: check! (ha ha we are proud of our first really big purchase together so I had to add this one). Anyway, you get the picture. Progress is all I am seeing.

Anyway, I will try to be better at blogging! But the countdown is on, 100 days until I marry into the best family I could  ever ask for and have my best friend become my husband! I sure am lucky!

What being in college has taught me

I know I have been terrible at writing on my blog the past couple of months. School has engulfed my attention and honestly blogging has been the last on my priority list. I wanted to write blog about my college experience... since I graduate in 53 days. I am thrilled beyond words to be this close to being done. I had know idea it would feel like this nor that it would come so soon. In just a few short months I will be able to call myself a graduate of Health Promotion and Education with an emphasis in Community, also being eligible to become CHES (Certified Health Education Specialist) certified. Wow what a mouthful! Being in college was not like I expected, it was much more. I have been through the worst of worst and the best of best experiences. I would like to share with you what I have learned in the past four years (From beginning to end), I hope you can get a good laugh about it. To those who have yet to start college, I strongly encourage you to start thinking about going. You w...

One of my favorite walls

There have been times that I come home from work or other places, exhausted, frustrated, and uneasy. I have always been a home body and love the comfort I get when inside. When I was preparing to move out when I got married I dreamed of decorating my own place, of hanging my own pictures, of designing the way my furniture was set up. Since I have been married almost one year, I never realized that I have one wall in particular I love to look at. It is in my bedroom, the wall opposite of where our bed sits. I see this wall as I wake up, go to sleep, start and end my day. It's not that big of a deal, and it's actually quite bare, but there are 3 things on there that I love. The first thing is a picture of my husband and I (one that I put together with the lyrics to our first dance), on our wedding day, dancing to our song, "Breathe" by Angels and Airwaves. This picture brings back the giddy feeling of being in a room full of people and the only person I had any knowl...

LIFE.

Hello friends and family! It has been so long since I have posted. Let me tell ya, mama hood takes a lot of time, which I am so grateful for. However, I had a spare minute (literally, Evie is napping right now) where I wasn't doing anything. Which quite honestly is very rare . I don't even know where to start on updates. So bare with me as this literally might be word vomit with no sense of order. First and foremost, we are HOME OWNERS! It was quite the whirlwind getting moved and settled in, but after about a month of rearranging, organizing, getting new things, our house is now a home. Going from a small two bedroom duplex to a 4 bedroom+living room+big kitchen+office+basement+3 bathrooms, we had to do some splurging. We will probably have empty rooms for a while, but sometimes it's nice to go sit in those empty rooms and escape the piles of things that are starting to appear. I still have lots to do, but I going to be ambitious and build (with my Dad and probably  Gran...
