I'mma Keep Him

Sooo I was stalking Nate's sister Jenna's blog the other day...and found some incredibly adorable pictures (thank you Jenna!) and I couldn't NOT  post one on here.  I'm guessing Nate was partially laughing in this photo because this is his completely genuine smile that I love so much.  Isn't he great?!

I'm a lucky girl.  Gosh I love this boy!

That is all :)

Month 5 ☺ Patience Is A Virtue

Wow I need to blog more than once a month!  Well, this month wasn't anything special.  It didn't go by fast, it didn't go by slow...oh wait, haha yes it did.  Overall it was alright, but there were a lot of days where honestly all I wanted was to have my best friend back.  Sometimes I just really miss the little things...like saying goodnight to Nate on the phone every night right before I go to sleep, sitting at our designated booth at Wendy's and getting the same meal every time, his fireplace, being able to come home and rant to him about anything and everything, all the fall-time activities we did together like carving pumpkins/corn mazes/frightmares, laughing uncontrollably with him, getting the biggest hug every time he showed up at my apartment etc.  Note to self: never take any moment I have with him for granted ever again!  And to all of you cute little couples who get to see your lover everyday, you don't know how lucky you are.  Really.  This month wasn't all bad though, here are some of the highlights:

~ My friend Becky, who I've been friends with since I was 5, got married.  She looked beautiful!  Congrats Mr. & Mrs. Morgan!  Also, my friends Jasmine and Sarah and I decided that it was our duty (as bridesmaids) to embarrass the happy couple and have their stereo blast "Let's Get It On" by Marvin Gaye as soon as they turned on the car.  We even cracked the windows so that the whole crowd could experience the amazingness that was happening.

~ I witnessed an engagement last night at the Riverwoods.  I was probably way more excited than I should've been, but it was so happy I wanted to cry!  The song "One In A Million" by Ne-Yo started playing while 3 guys did a dance routine in front of the girl.  Then the guy pulled her in and got down on one knee.  So cute.  I can't wait until it's my turn.  

~ The second season of "New Girl" started.  That's joyous.

~ I bumped my fence while I was mowing the front lawn at my parents' house, and my neighbor's whole post and mailbox fell over.  And then my neighbor pulled into the driveway.  He had seen the whole thing.  Definitely a highlight of my month.

~ I opened my mailbox to see this about 4 times this month.  Nate never fails to make my day.  Love his letters.  Love him :)

Even though this month was slow, on the bright side we are 1/5 of the way through!  I feel like this next month will be a good one.  Nate has been in the city of Herne for a little while now and is loving it.  Nothing makes me happier than to hear that he is happy.  He loves the area and has an awesome companion.  We are now counting down to the 6-MONTH MARK people!!!  That is a big deal!

In other news....I still love my roommates...

I will try to post more often!  :)
