Today is a very special day because my husband is now 25. When we first met he was a mere 18 years old, my how time flies. I was actually just doing the math the other day and seven years… dang, amiright?

The majority of the most important people in my life have all been [...]

The fires of love

Yesterday was Valentine’s Day and we celebrated a little differently than most people do.

For starters, our actual date was on Saturday. We got Chic-fil-a for lunch, relaxed and did our own thing, then went to see The Woman in Black in Murfreesboro before going to the Demos’ there. The movie was in a special [...]

Our New Year’s Eve was not at all what we originally planned, but that’s okay because it turned out better.

Friday night Gray’s mom Cathy called to invite us down to Jackson for a family get together on Saturday afternoon. It turned out his (Gray) brother Taylor and fiance Liz were coming home early, so [...]

We left Friday afternoon after Gray’s last day of work. Did I mention that small detail on here yet? Gray starts a new job on the 3rd of January, so Friday was [...]

The Proposal

I am not sure why, but it seems fitting that the last post of November is the story of how Gray proposed to me. I’ve wanted to write our story for some time, and I feel like this is a good place to start.

I remember the majority of this day pretty well. I know [...]

Happy (almost) birthday, Bellatrix

By On November 29, 2011 · 2 Comments · In 2011, Bellatrix, life, nablopomo

Bellatrix is almost considered an adult cat, not just a kitten. She will turn a year old in just over a week on December 7th!

She certainly is a sweet cat, although Gray would probably argue and say she’s an evil cat. heh.

I’ve really enjoyed this step into pet ownership. While some may argue, [...]

We’re in my hometown for this rest of this weekend. Over a week ago I went home for my aunt Hattie’s funeral and I was reminded of how awesomely big my family is… my mom was 1 of 10 and my dad was 1 of 8. I always meet new relatives at funerals and reunions.
