Changes…

As many may know, I'll be a married women in 30 days. With that, comes many changes:

1. I'll have a forever sleeping partner.
2. Moving out and on my own.
3. I'll get to embrace cooking A LOT.
4. There will be times where there are NO animals around.
5. I'll never have another kitty cat as a friend (Nathan's allergic)
6. Joint $$ accounts which changes everything with the government.
7. I get to shop for 2 instead of 1.
8. I'll have another last name.
9. I get another set of parents, etc…
10. I have a person who is a part of me, forever.

:-) change is hard but it is also rewarding.

Here's to Godly marriage!

New Uses for OLD Things

Please check out this realsimple.com link. Being inventive has its advantages. Besides, you'll look like a genius when using these tricks! It will save you tons of hassle.

On a side note: I was doing some fun searches on etsy.com and found some great (yet expensive) items.

Lastly, YandeBridal created this whimsical ring pillow = love.

Guess who's engaged?!?!

It's me, its me! 

The awesome and handsome Nathan proposed a couple days after Thanksgiving. Yeah, I'm about 2 months late in telling the blog-world, but at least I told you! We'll be getting married later this year - haven't set a permanent date, but we're planning it fast and smoothly. I'll be heading to a bridal boutique (maybe Thursday) soooooon! I pray I find 'the one.' I was chatting with my fiance during lunch today and couldn't help but get gushy with him and tell him how excited I am to be his wife. To get flustered at almost 4 years together is quite a phenomenon. It's great to find another who lives like you live and loves what you love. We have so much fun together. A simple car ride is an adventure...

So, there you have it -- My Update! Thanks for reading. May our Lord bless you, abundantly.

Midpoint of Semester

Seeing that my last post happened on June 9th, I think its time for an update - don't ya think?

Well, I started my second semester of college! It's a tad tougher and more time-consuming but the Lord prevails even in the most difficult of situations. I'm really excited about fall and am about to go buy a gorgeous Christmas tree with my mother (it has snow on it!!! yay!). I am fully moved into my new home and enjoy it sooo very much. I pulled out my heater two days ago b/c I like to have my own climate in my room - I'm a cold-natured person, ha. Nathan, my love, is super busy at work (which is a real good thing) regardless of the economic struggle, he is prospering! I enjoy playing tennis now. About four days ago, I went to one of my favorite stores and found great bargains on super cute winter coats. The lady at the registered was puzzled as to why I'm buying winter coats and said, "coat shopping already? Wow, you're ahead of the game!." And of course I replied with, "I'm really excited about fall and winter!" My etsy shop is on hold and truly miss having it up and running. It was a wonderful feeling when I found out I sold something and had the wonderful opportunity to deliver it to that desired customer. Auuuhh, memories. I'll get it up and running again someday, but in a day that has no school! (maybe Christmas vacation...hmmm).

So, anyway. Glad to be back. I look forward to reading about all my followers' lives and such. Thanks for listening to my update - I appreciate you!
