Thank you

Thank you all for the birthday wishes! I’ve had a great birthday. I got to see my family last Friday (a surprise visit by Erin and Walker). My nephew is growing up so fast. He speaks in complete sentences and of course he is adorable. I got to go to the Cheesecake Factory for the first time on Saturday with my Church Family. It was incredible but very filling. Justin has been really sweet to me. I even got to go out to lunch with my GWU Family. I wish Matt and Megan could have made it but I know how crazy things are on their end right now. (We missed you). I hope to see David, Lorraine, and Stacey soon. It’s been awhile since we’ve gotten to visit.

I love you all!

Happy Anniversary and Happy Birthday

Today is Jack and Cary’s Anniversary. I wish you both another love-filled year of happiness. Enjoy the beach! (lucky dawgs)

Today is also my friend Greg’s Birthday. I haven’t seen him in awhile but I’m sure this birthday will be awesome with his wife Shilpa by his side. Miss you!

Single Mom

Well, it seems as if I’m a single mom for the week. Justin has gone to Kansas City for Church IT Roundtable. But…that’s okay, I’m leaving for a trip to Raleigh (not nearly as exciting of a travel) at the end of the month for a few days to go to a CSANC conference with Cary and Brooke for the Campus Shop. We get to stay in the Hilton (niiiiicee! or so I’m hoping). I miss Justin but luckily my schedule has kept me quite busy. I had a WMU meeting last night. Tonight is church and choir til about 8:45pm and Thursday is homework, homework, homework. Java has been a good guard dog though, I always feel comfortable when she is on duty hehe.

In other news…Melissa had her baby! Her name is Chloe and she was 6.5 pounds and 19.5 inches long. I can’t wait to see them in person but the picture I saw was adorable. Congrats Mommy Melissa. I love you!

Happy Day!

I wanted to wish everyone a very happy labor day (even though I have to work). I would also like to shout out two birthday wishes today. One for Matt London and one for Brandon Jaynes. Happy Birthday guys! I hope you enjoy it!

Ohmylanta!

I am living a life like on TV.

Today when I got home Justin was there to greet me. He walked outside but I didn’t see Java anywhere. I asked him where she was and he said inside. Then he put his arm around me and said he had to tell me something. I could just feel how nervous he was. He quickly told me it was good but I was still nervous. Then I thought, why wouldn’t Java be at the door at least? I really thought he had gotten us a lab puppy. Then he sat me on the couch when we got inside. No Java, no puppy. He handed me an envelope and I took the paper from it and it was a picture of the bridge in Charleston and a hotel logo. I quickly laughed and said what’s this? and he said, “We are going to Charleston first thing in the morning now pack your bags.” I quickly laughed again and said, “I can’t, I have to work tomorrow and it’s graduation weekend so I have to work Saturday and late Friday.” Then he responded with a, “No you don’t, already taken care of.” He has been plotting this surprise for weeks and has had plenty of people involved including the most awesome Cary Caldwell! So now I’m doing laundry and packing for a very much unexpected yet very needed vacation to CHARLESTON! I love this man! He is so awesome! Don’t pinch me, I’m lovin this dream.

Happy Birthday Megan!

Megan, I hope you have an awesome birthday and a great time with Matt and family. We wish we could be there to celebrate in person. Your present is in the mail 🙂
