Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my new blog! I’m glad you’re here and I’ll try my best to keep it updated. I used to do a great job with blogging through high school and early college, but then life got in the way. I met a boy in statistics class and our fun adventures led to us getting engaged senior year and moving to Austin, TX after graduating. We were married on May 25, 2008 and have been acting like the same crazy kids we were back when we met in 2005. Sure we own property, have stable jobs, and even support another life (an adolescent doggy named Pepper), but that hasn’t slowed us down. We just have more excuses to keep busy, pursuing fun stuff to do!

And fun stuff is what leads me to starting this new blog. Unfortunately I never detailed much of our awesome life as newlyweds, but it’s important for me to start documenting our current life ASAP since we’ve hit a new milestone. As of today, I am on Day 117 of my first pregnancy. 16 weeks and 5 days. Chris and I have always wanted kids (one day in the distant future since we’re so young and all), but the blessing came a little earlier than we originally planned. Although the more I think about it, the more I realize that now couldn’t be a better time. We are in a really good place after four years of marriage. Also, Chris is so excited about being a daddy… he’s been cooing at strangers’ babies and playing peek-a-boo with random toddlers for as long as I can remember. Also, this has already brought us a lot closer together - didn’t know that was possible since we’re already so tight.

Well, stay tuned! Over the next few weeks I’ll catch you up on all the details!
