It's been a while...

Wow! It has been over six months since I have blogged 

and so much has happened since then.

I took a step back for a while because I lost my passion to come to this space.

I was constantly searching for something to talk about and how I would find the time to write and so I decided to leave for a bit.

I am not sure if I am returning for good or not, but it feels good to just put an update here so maybe I can look back at later on in life.

So what's new?

We bought a house!

And we've been living in it for about 4 and half months now. 

We have yet to really decorate, but we love it.

It is so nice to have our own space and start to build our life together.

But it sure is a lot of work to maintain it.

I have started my last year of graduate school!!

I cannot believe it is finally here.

In about 7 months I will officially be done with my Master's and hopefully starting my future career and passion.

It has been a long journey to get here and I am so excited to be working in my internship and learning more about my practice.

We are less than a year away from our wedding!

We've been engaged for a year and a half and will be celebrating 3 years together this month.

It's crazy to think Brad has been a part of my whole Washington journey

 but I am so grateful to have him by my side and to finally get to marry him.

We already feel married but it will be fun to make our commitment to each other in front of our family and friends!

This year will be busy one and I am ready for it!

6 Months

Today I celebrate 6 months with this guy.

Yeah, yeah, I'm going to get all sappy on you, but how can I not!

Here are the things I have come to love about this man:

1.) His never ending talk about cars and how he will stop halfway through when explaining them to me because he realizes I don't understand the language he is speaking. And each time I remind him that I may not understand, but I will always listen. Some day I'll actually be able to understand a little bit of what he is saying. 

2.) The fact he calls me "baby" in the way I call him "baby" because its distinctly my way and he has fully embraced it.

3.) The willingness to give me a back rub when my back is killing me after a long day of work and never asking for one in return.

4.) His understanding of my Starbucks addiction and the time he surprises me by re-loading my card because he knows I waste too much money on it.

5.) How he will never ask me to pay and is always shocked when I pull out my card before he does. He always puts me first.

6.) The way he loves his mom. He would take a bullet for her!

7.) His shyness of speaking of his accomplishments. While I know he can brag, he can also be the most humble man. 

8.) His comments that bring tears to my eyes about how thankful he is for me, how beautiful I am compared to all the other girls in the world, how lucky he is he got me, and so many more wonderful comments.

9.) The fact he is the first man I've dated that I haven't tried to run from because I fully trust him and can't imagine one day without him.

10.) How he tries to treat me like a princess by taking me to fancy dinners or planning extravagant outings even though he knows I'd be happy with pizza and a One Tree Hill Marathon.

11.) Speaking of One Tree Hill, the fact he is totally engrossed by the show and looks forward to watching it as much as I do.

12.) His willingness to let me get my way and watch One Tree Hill instead of watching the new Top Gear.

13.) The fact he wants me to continue to surprise him with lottery tickets even though each one I buy is never a winner.

14.) His willingness to listen to me talk about everything that's on my mind and then gives me encouragement to do whatever I think is best because he just wants me happy.

I could probably go on for hours and hopefully in another 6 months I'll be giving you even more reasons on why I love him so I'll save it for later.

Enjoy the sappiness while I enjoy the batting cages!
