Wow, has it really been 4 months since I last posted? Is anybody still out there?
The reason for my absence has been good! Things are on the up swing and life is so good. Today marks my 4th wedding anniversary and this year I am so excited to still be married! The past 2 anniversaries were good but we let me pass with little celebration. This year, no way Jose, we are doing it up big! We have reason enough to celebrate so we are going to Lake Lure this weekend to stay in a cute bed and breakfast and just enjoy being married. We are planning on hiking up Chimney Rock on Saturday to the falls and hopefully a romantic dinner somewhere Saturday night. We haven't been on a trip alone since our Honeymoon and now we realize the importance of getting away and focusing on our marriage no matter the cost or the time. THIS IS IMPORTANT and we have pledged to put our marriage second in command only to our personal relationships with Jesus Christ. Amen, we are finally getting something right!
Can you tell that I'm happy? =)
This is where we are staying. We booked the Dogwood room and it looks fabulous!
So let's recap the last four months or so:
February: Valentines day was good but I worked at the coffee shop that night and was able to enjoy all the other happy couples who came in. No rude costumers that night!
A lot of family birthdays were celebrated with several trips to Raleigh. It was fun.
March: Went to NYC with my sister. Had a blast and took lots of pictures. Hopefully I'll get some up here at some point over the weekend. Celebrated Josh's 26th birthday. Worked A LOT to recover the missed hours from my NY trip. So worth it.
April: Josh and I moved back in together in a new apartment. It took 2 movers, 8 hours, 500 bucks and about 30 boxes but we did it and we did it without help from anyone else other than professional movers. We were even able to witness to them and share our stories and the day ended with them telling us that we had made an impact for them. Praise God! We even hang out with one of them when time allows. =) I had Spring break and so did Josh, we were lazy and loved every minute of it.
May: Went to the doctor because I was experiencing some strange things health wise. Not pregnant, which was my first concern. I have low iron and apparently a doctor who transcends professional boundaries. I'll tell you about it if you want to know but I won't blast it up here. I'll just say that I am in the market for a new doctor's office. Got hooked into Twilight. Seriously, if you haven't read it and you don't want to to get sucked in, then don't pick it up. Josh bought me all 4 books in hardback as my anniversary gift because I love them so much. I am currently re-reading book 1. Do yourselves a favor and watch the movie first so you can create mental pictures in your head while you read. I promise, it is the right way to go about it. I think I may be morphing into a bigger Twilight series fan than I am a Harry Potter fan (gasp!). I know, take a minute. You know it has to be good if I like it better than my beloved Harry Potter. Seriously. addicted.....
Now that you are caught up, I am sitting at school bored out of my mind because the kids are on that last few days of school kick where they only want to play Candy land and if I have to play candy land one more time, I may vomit. Next week the kids get out and we have to pack up the school. We are moving on down to Pinnacle to the lovely pods next year. I am stoked because it is an upgrade for me. No more camel crickets and creepy spiders. Yay!
This weekend we are out of town and then the next weekend I am going to Virginia Beach to see Katie and Jo for a girls weekend before Jo moves on to Hawaii with her hubs who is in the Navy. Should be a fun time for all!
That is it for now. Check back for pictures in a few days!
