Reminders

Try not to bump into anything. It hurts.

 

These (pregnant) days,

I look for new hairdo's to try.
I listen to my old music on Pandora.
I wear my last hair tie on my wrist so I don't lose it.
I think about rearranging rooms.
I work on DIY projects.
I watch movies.
I eat alot.
I sleep alot, too.

and I keep telling myself that all this internal kicking is actually a good sign.

                           Also, I made a pinterest.

He likes green salsa.

Also enjoys: cowboys and indians, star wars, getting things done, pirate ships, surprises, and oceanic things, typewriters and polaroids, sushi, good music, roadtrips, and crafting.

I wake up to an adventure everyday. And couldn't be happier. (:

 

Someday, I'll go there. But for now, my dreams are complete. 

today is valentine's day

Today is a celebration of everything fun we've ever done together, all the hours spent doing secret stuff for each other, all the time we mourned the apartness, and the day when that ended and life began.

 All of today has been a surprise, and it's only halfway done! And since my camera died in Hawaii, only us two will see our day. Oh, wait. Phones. Maybe someone will get lucky. Maybe we'll just be selfish.

A secret for those who may be sad today: fairy tales really do happen. It's not fair to disregard a dream because it "only happens in the movies". Lies! Happiness every day is entirely possible and within everyone's reach. Just find it within yourself. It's kinda like Christmas, only it's real. Believe!

p.s. Jake, thanks.

every day is the best day ever.

Post 30:

As a married woman, I would like to say


Making decisions rocks on saturdays, sucks on mondays,

Returning wedding gifts does take all day,

Groceries are always more expensive than you think,

Boys do know how to cook,

Being a good housekeeper is SO overrated.

something happy, something nice.

In the kitchen, wading through a mound of sleep, I saw the sun fall on a basket of flowers.

My dad blames me for his newly discovered patch of white hairs.
