I love that first hug and kiss and the sigh of relief I feel in those safe arms. I love the lazy ( Read more... )

Scott and I have just had the best weekend ever. Where to start?

Friday we went to the drive in movies. We loaded up the truck with blankets, cushions, and lots of snacks and drinks.  It was so fun to just sit outside, relax, and watch two funny flicks (Funny People and the Hangover). It was even nicer to spend some quality time with Scott, and that ( Read more... )

I should have written about this earlier in the week, but I'm just now sitting down to do it.

Last weekend Scott and I got to spend the best weekend in our favorite place in the world--CMU.

First Scott took Thursday and Friday off, so we got to spend two days adventuring. On Thursday we took the kayaks to a lake to explore, then went to the beach, ( Read more... )
