Our date last night was wonderful…despite the insane “rush hour” traffic during a supposedly “non-rush hour” time. *sigh* We eventually made it to Madison Heights, waited in a ridiculously long line to pick up my dress from David’s Bridal (which fit perfectly!) and even dropped of lots of checks (aka MONEY) at a Bank of […]
The One with the Pizza Hut Goodness
Tonight is our date night! I’m way excited! Especially since it’s not going to cost us anything thanks to a gift card we won at our apartment complex par-tay! We have both been craving the amazing-ness of Pizza Hut and can’t wait! I got myself all dooded up (aka…the way my mom always used to […]
The One in Brief
I’m sorry I haven’t updated in a while. I know all of you are hanging on to my every word, but sometimes time gets away from me. (heehee). The last few days have been pretty much insane…in that “heavenly blessing being poured out so heavily that we don’t have room to contain it” sort-of-way. I […]
The One with all the Roller Coasters
Sunday turned out to be the most perfect weather for a day at Cedar Point! Not too hot, not too cold. The only problem was everyone else must have had the same thought…because all the lines were super long. Even the coasters that are way way old (like Gemini and Magnum) had 30 minute waits. […]
The One with Super Cool Stuff
We had an absolutely fabulous day with Mom & Dad Eccles and Brian. (Preceded by a pancake breakfast in bed!) They arrived at our apartment around 12:30 and we immediately partook of the delicious lunch they had packed to share with us–baked subs (satisfying my pizza crave), juicy apples, and Harvest cheddar Sunchips. It was […]

The One with all the Aminals
(yes, it’s misspelled on purpose.) It’s incredibly wonderful to wake up a little chilly because of the amazingly cool breeze blowing throw the windows. I love that feeling! And it means my husband and finally get to snuggle because it’s not a bazillion degrees. :) To top it all off, the temperature isn’t supposed to […]
The One with the Feeding of the Five Thousand
Somehow, we still have money. God is providing…out of nowhere. I can’t say much more than that. It’s impossible. But obviously not. Last night we ate homemade pizza. Satisfied a craving…even though it had very little cheese on it. It was still delicious. S’mores from the broiler are really top notch. (That is if and […]
The One with Beautiful Pictures
Kevin and I before the wedding. The Bride, Groom, and Bubbles. My beautiful newly married friend, Amber, and I.~~~~~~~~~~~ Going to bed while it’s still light outside is sure proof you’re sick. I was ok most of the afternoon yesterday, but almost as soon as Kevin was coming home (and I could hardly wait till […]
The One with the Peanut Butter Pretzels
Halfway through our trip home I started feeling rather miserable. Not only do I have about 5 extra pounds in water making me feel not so good, but nausea began creeping over me. We got home and unpacked and I talked to my good friend Ruth on the phone for a half hour which was […]
