Memory Lane

Tim was on the phone for forever today and I was searching tons of old photos. I was looking for specific photos, but got caught up in memory lane.

It was AMAZING. I found some of the funniest photos, sad photos, photos filled with meaning, and photos that reminded me of why I didn't like middle school. My afternoon was filled with memories of friendships that faded over time and friendships that have grown over time. So, I thought I would share with you some of the "before" and "after" photos that I ran across today....





Sorry if anyone is embarrassed. There are a LOT more embarrassing ones that I found....(Taryn - do you remember all our "modeling" photo sessions?) Anyways, I smiled a lot as I reminisced.

Oh yeah, The Proposal: One of the funniest movies I have seen in a long time.

10 random thoughts.

I was going to blog but decided I had nothing long or truly interesting enough to blog about for an entire post so I'm doing this: 10 random thoughts.

1. I love Tim. He is amazing and I am thankful to hear everyday that he loves me and thinks I'm beautiful. It's a self-esteem boost every day. I love it and love him.

2. Time Warner has called me 6 times over the past week to try and sell me a digital phone plan. They annoy me.

3. My mom sometimes tells Tim things long before me. They apparently talk a lot. I'll go to share a story I learned and my mom has already told him.

4. I'm learning to eat squash - this week I've had grilled squash and fried squash. Hooray for our own gardens producing edible foods.

5. Tim gave up coffee! He has only had one cup in about a week? It's amazing. However, now we share my Dr. Pepper obsession.

6. I finally printed my 11x14 photos to hang up over the beds in the bedrooms - after having empty frames for forever!

7. I took some engagement photos on Saturday in BLISTERING heat, but it was absolutelly wonderful. I got some great shots in and hope they love them.

8. My best friend makes jewlery - so far I have a necklace, three pairs of earrings, and a ring! I LOVE THEM!

9. The card we got my dad for Fathers day was as follows:
Front: Dad, what would we do without you?
Inside: Well, one of us wouldn't exist and the other would be married to a loser. Happy Fathers Day.
He laughed so hard. It was an amazing card.

10. The last thirty seconds have been flooded with these thoughts: School's insane. My sister is hilarious. I need to write a 12 page paper. I have finals next week. I hate my job. I wish I could eat ice cream.

Anyways, all is well. Life is good. God is great.

Good, bad, and the in between!

Let's start with:

From the last time I blogged, our car had issues. We had to get a new transmission, finacial aid was being a pain, and oh yeah Tim's wallet got either lost/stolen in Portland at the airport! I wanted to break down and cry but we were on VACATION!

The weekend, after that moment, was WONDERFUL! Stephen and Emily's wedding was so pretty and it was a blast to be there with friends we hadn't seen since our wedding in July. We hung out a lot with Aaron and Erin, so that was fun! We also went to the coast & I got to stick my feet in the Pacific Ocean!!!







Since then, we got back and school has been in full blast! I have conducted two play therapy sessions, and LOVED it! I am going to get a certificate in Play Therapy and hopefully work with children using this type of therapy. I'll update soon with more, I'm just tired of typing! So there's a mini update on our life!
