Things I {{Love}} Thursday!

Hey Y'all!

I hope you enjoyed my little Love Story last week!
James even read it and gave me the biggest hug I've had in a while.
I love that man!

So NOW I'm trying to get a new little weekly schedule going on here.
And I apologize for it being so late. Today was a little crazy!

Things I love Thursday is based on products I find on Storenvy, Etsy, Facebook, other blogs, or other Internet sites that I have completely fallen for
.
Let's get this party started shall we?!?!

Our {Love} Story: Wedding Day

Holy Guacamole.

Today's the day.

I get up, bathe, throw on some sweats and head to get my hair done.

Butterflies invade my tummy.

My bridesmaid and I drive to the venue.

There was a tornado the night before and the wedding is outside.

I pray the whole way that everything is going to be okay...

It rained earlier that morning, but I've always heard rain on your wedding day is good luck.

When we got there I couldn't believe how beautiful everything was.

Not only were the decorations absolutely gorgeous...

But so were the trees.

The grass.

The river.

Our {Love} Story: Part 3

Hey guys! Sorry for such the long wait!

This weekend was 12 kinds of crazy!

Being Mother's Day and all ;)

OH! And the Auction is up!! Check it out here!

Okay so here we go!

-Fast Forward to October 13th, 2008, the day before he'd go back to Iraq-

James picked me up and we drove to Berryhill park.

It's just a small little park, but I love it :)

He parked the car and sat there for what seemed to be a hundred years.

Our {Love} Story: Part 2

Welcome back! I've decided to make this a 5 part series, with the last part being our Wedding day next Wednesday!

So are you ready for the next part???

First Date & R&R

James had sent me my FAVORITE lily flowers.

He remembered in the hours and hours of conversations we had.

How awesome is he?!

5 miserable days later James had returned from his mission!

And I think on his 5 days of thinking and driving [he drove a truck in Iraq]

He was getting down to business.

I had my phone set up to where my Yahoo! Messenger would send me texts if someone messaged me. So I could text vs sitting on the computer and typing. It was handy!

Our {Love} Story: Part 1

Hello again!

Sorry for the long wait...

My mommy has been in the hospital for almost a week so I've been dealing with that fiasco.

Luckily her doctors cleared her to go home tonight! HOORAY!

I'm excited.

I just realized YESTERDAY that my anniversary is NEXT WEEK!

Holy cow where the hay does time go... Seriously???

I'm going to steal some more... It goes by too quickly.

So in honor of our anniversary.....

Here's our Story

So the hubs and I went to High School together. He was in every English class I ever had and always sat behind me. 

I thought he was REALLY cute...

But he was a jerk. HUGE jerk.

He says I'm a snob but deep down he was in love with me (haha!).

I used to turn around and play with his gorgeous curly hair.

Then he graduated and joined the Army. (2006)

Jump forward to 2008.

I was sitting at home watching one of my FAVORITE movies

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

A movie we watched in Junior English.

My mind went straight to thinking of him.

Why? I don't know...

So I did what any 19 year old girl would do. 

I looked him up on Facebook

I thought, "Holy cow he's in Iraq..."

And sent a friend request....

Family time is awesome time.

So yesterday, me, the hubs, Sweet Pea & Mr. Bug, my mom, and my step dad went to Playtime Pizza! If you've never been to Playtime Pizza (or don't live in the natural state) It's like Chuck E Cheese... but bigger! And pretty dang awesome!

How do you balance life?

First I want to show you my headband! 

As if the fans on Facebook haven't seen it enough, lol!
