vday 2011



Although Valentines Day probably is just a commercial holiday created for the sole purpose of making money... I still LOVE IT! Life has been a little bit crazy lately and I am such a homebody so we opted to stay in. I came home from the gym to find our entire house clean and frank sinatra playing.

Our evening consisted of a heart shaped pizza, dancing in the living room, s'mores, Gone With the Wind, and lots of snuggling. Nate bought me... in his own words... "A basket full of things I never let you get when we go to the store." hahaaa.

It was a perfect evening.

I love my husband's dark skin and dark hair and desperately hope
our future little men look JUST like him...


BUT
I reallllllllly hope that we can have at least one little sweet BLONDE baby girl.

what a man

Today I am feeling exceptionally thankful for this man. He loves me so very well and always always always brings things back to the Gospel. He puts rest to my crazy mind and brings so much peace and clarity to my heart. Thank goodness I married a man who absolutely possesses much of what I GREATLY lack. I thank God for creating Nate exactly the way He did and for being so kind in letting me be the one to carry his name.

Husbands are a wonderful thing. If you have one, be thankful for him.

I love her

This woman is SO PRECIOUS TO ME! Today we got to chat and enjoy our snow day together via skype. I love our friendship so much. She is so open and straight up about her life and relationship with God. She is committed and is so GENUINE. I just enjoy her SO MUCH!

So, heres to you my sweet Jocelyn Berry. I am so thankful for you.

Morning Muffins



Another snow day here in Belleville. Well, I should say ICE DAY.
Although it is a happy day, I am sad that my sweet husband couldn't be home
with me too. So, I am enjoying these delicious muffins, reading, cleaning and doing
absolutely nothing. A glorious day indeed.

Snowy Day

Today I spent at home because it was SNOW DAY!! One of the many perks of working at a school! I love LOVE my work schedule.

Our house has been so DISGUSTING since Christmas break. Life has been CRAZY so I was thankful for today to get things organized. I am starting to understand myself better and how I function. I NEEEEEED structure, organization and cleanliness or else I am unproductive and stressed. And, unfortunately, organization is not something that comes naturally to me. So I spent the day organizing. And it feels WONDERFUL.

Got everything done except Christmas stuff... I need Nate's help with that : )

Glorious and Clean
Random: Nate and I got our power bill for last month and it was twice as much as it usually is. So we are trying to dress warm and save $$$$. I was folding laundry today and caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. hahahahhahahahaaa. I wish it was a better picture and you could see the ridiculous slippers I was wearing. NO shame.
Although I like my phone I got a little sad today because I did not take ONE PICTURE of Christmas with our real camera!!! All I have are phone pictures... BUT I will attempt to do a Christmas update soooon.
