Zee Hodgepodge

1. April showers bring May flowers or so the saying goes. Are you blooming where you're planted as we begin the month of May?
Ummm.... honestly that's a tough one for me. I feel like I'm basically in the process of unplanting myself from this spot and it's making feel rootless and r…

Just Say Yes

As my time in DC and on the East coast in general winds down (still don't have a date) I've adopted a totally freeing attitude towards how I'm spending my time.

I'm just saying "yes".
To all the things.

Fly to Greenville for a long weekend with my sister? Yes.
Beach trip w…

Excuse the Mess

I have been meaning to do a home tour since I moved into my humble abode over three years ago. And now that I will be moving out (at some point) I want to have pictures documenting this most wonderful house for posterity. So come on in, x-cuse the clutter and enjoy the photo dump! When you first w…

W is for I've been holding out on you.

So my beloved blog readers. I have not been entirely honest with you.
It's really more a lie of omission in that I haven't shared a big huge thing that's been brewing in my life. I've been keeping a big secret, waiting for the right time to share the news, not wanting to put the car…

5 Things Friday

So today I am combining my A-Z post with the 5 on Friday link up to share five things I am VERY excited about today.  Also... I know all I've talked about this week is T.J and all our fun plans. I don't want this blog to be totally taken over by wedding talk but just bear with me for a few…

Under Pressure

Yesterday's post was all about trusting in God's timing. The beauty of how He work's out everything for good. And even though I know all those things... right now, timing is a tricky subject for me. The first question someone asks after you get engaged is "when's the big day?&q…

Timing and The What If Game

I am guilty of playing the "what if" game. Don't we all fall prey to that trap sometimes. You're brain leads you down a rabbit hole of possibilities and unknowns and circumstances that may or may not ever come to fruition. I like to rationalize this spiral thinking as simply being…

The Sweetest Weekend

Friday I had to work but I was still floating on air so I didn't mind going in. It was so fun to tell people at the office and flash my left hand. After work, T.J. and I took the train up to my parents house. Both mom and dad greeted us at the station and there were hugs and congratulations exc…

Quite the Long Engagement Recap

Today I am combining letters Q and R for the A to Z Challenge to put together quite the long recap. Because twice the letters means twice as long, hope you don't mind. I want to have everything about this weekend recorded while it's still so fresh in my mind, so let's dive on in.

The Best Post

Today is Good Friday. And this year it has a whole new meaning to me.
Yesterday was simply the best day ever because....

TJ asked me to marry him and I said YES!
P is for the most perfect proposal,
I promise to post the whole story when I can form complete sentences. But right now I just want to en…

Oh Wow!

Oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day. I am just in a great mood today! 
It might have something to do with TJ coming to town last night. And that we got to cook dinner together and then we went to see Captain America, which was just okay but we got to whisper in a movie theater tog…
